I honestly don't know a single female who dates her age or younger. They all prefer older men.

I don't know many women who date or are married to much older men but then again the women I know all have careers and don't need a man to support them. Some are even married to younger men (quite a few actually). The only women I know who married much older men were all uneducated and plan not to work again.

It is different than people with different ages who meet and fall in love.

yes, i understand that is your point of view. not arguing with it. but as you and i have discussed before, i believe ppl should love how they want as long as it is legal and between two consenting adults.

frankly, i've always heard women support love in all its forms. but i recognize that this age difference variant is going to take a generation or two.

it's funny how my niece (22yo), sisters (3), and mom (80) never criticize me about dating younger 20something women and are totally comfortable with it. Even my sister (54yo) said to me today, she on the look out for a young honey for me. And they are my relationship confidants, so that's my reality.

All my friends have good jobs and have had for a while. They don't need their men to support them they are equals, well actually some of them make more money than their SOs. The only older women I know who date younger men are the ones who still like to think they're 21 it's really sad actually. I know alot of people who talk about them being ***** and pathetic. Most women in this country date older men are they're more mature and settled.

Yes but I am 42 so not much of a difference. I wouldn't have dated him if he was an old 50.

That's extremely sad.

I do think people who are judgemental and try to force their opinions on others are wrong and that's what's wrong with the world. If people would mind their own business and stop poking about in others then things would be better. I'm not going to apologise for saying what I said. It's my opinion it does not mean I went off on you, not at all.

Well now, those younger men must have mental problems, mommy issues, or using her for money, etc etc

Yeah, but the alcoholism keeps him young. Probably always living with his mom has infantilized him so much it's kept off the years too.
