I find guys in their forties attractive, but I'm 39. I did not find them sexually attractive when I was younger.

I vividly remember thinking things like, oh that guys so sweet like my dad.( now I see he was trying to get laid. Never entered my mind.

I get hit on by younger men (boys) all the time and they must have a weird MILF thing going on. (Shudders) it really creeps me out.

For me five years up or down in age is good and it has been that way since I started dating.

Everybody has their thing though, and some young girls find old guys attractive. It's all a preference thing.

There will come a day before long when you will be that age, so guys that age will no longer be "older." At that point, you may well be attracted to guys in their 40's or even 50's. Or you may not-- everyone is different.

No, that only means you are hot.

Getting dates seems pretty easy, it's getting in a relationship that seems tough! I never really dated in my twenties though.

I don't know about all dudes, but my buddies wives tell me I look way better now than I did in my twenties. Most of that has to do with working out and the way I dress though..

Well, I've never been in a relationship, but I will say this: if I start earning six figures later on, it will actually be negative in some ways. If women are suddenly interested and weren't before, they will be ignored. I want a girlfriend, not a prostitute.

Six figures doesn't give you a personality or make you more attractive.

Practice having a few relationships first before you reach 6 figures.

Bro, Men in their early 30s are at the prime in the dating market. The women that married in their 20s because they were naive and felt "they had to" will now be divorcing and you will be there single and ready to mingle. You may have to deal with their kids though if they have any. You'll also find women in their late 20s that are single and starting to think of settling down.

It does for many women. On talk radio, they were talking about dating web sites, and this guy called in and said he got zero contacts when he put "decline to state" for his income, but then got hundreds of responses a day when he put his actual income of six figures. This is unfortunate, because if I get to that point, it will be difficult distinguishing between people who just want access to the money and people who actually care for me.

What I might have to do is just make sure I don't get married and we always live in separate places, and she never gets any of the money.

Although, considering the fact that there hasn't been any interest so far, most likely I will just assume that everyone just wants access to the money.

There haven't been in any relationships so far, and considering I'm 36 now, if it was going to happen, it probably would have happened by now.

Well, not if they've never been in a relationship before.

lol, no I won't, no kids for me. There were times I wanted that when I was younger, but not any more. I definitely don't want kids at all now. I would be interested in being a father figure or maybe helping people financially who have kids (without expecting anything in return), but I'm a little old to start being a father right now. Plus I couldn't afford that, and by the time I can, I'll be even older.

I'm not sure if I want marriage. I'm leaning toward no. I think if you're going to have kids, you definitely should get married, but I'm not sure what the point is for people like myself who are not interested in having kids.

The first time I dated an older man was by accident. He was hot and so much more fun then guys my age! Tbh, older men had always been kind of invisible to me before but I started looking at them differently after that one guy. I never knew how damn sexy older men could be. I felt like I discovered the BEST candy store in the world! Or more like it's raining men lol!
