And I would definitely be with a teenager (18-19) if I was in love with her and she loved me. Hell, if she just got back from a military deployment, I would have more in common with her than someone our age who never served.
It's not about validation, it's...performance. The young guy would be more satisfying than me. Plus he would be more handsome.
You're confusing beauty with desirability for a relationship. If you're looking for someone who's mature, wise, seasoned, etc., in a relationship, then yes, you might would want someone older (unless you find a young person with those qualities).
But if you're looking for sexual satisfaction then most 18 year olds would be more attractive in that regard than most older people. By no means is that always true. But, quite often.
No reason to get upset...there are lots of women who want younger guys, including 18 year old guys, and there are lots of men who want the woman to be older. When I was 20 I was in love with a woman who was 27. Of course she looked closer to my age, but I felt very comfortable with her and we would talk about space exploration and colonization before and after class. Now she's 44 but she still looks 20. We were never together...I joined the Navy in part because of inspiration from her. You can't choose whom you fall in love with, and I've liked older people, people my age, and younger people.
Sorry but many, many 18 year olds are still growing into their looks, are still in the gawky adolescent stage. I'm sure they exist but never in my life have I heard a grown woman say she found teenage boys more attractive than grown men.

Sorry, 18 year olds are children to me. Other women can do what they will but if I was single, I would never have anything to do with a child.
That's even more weird! 22 and 18 are only four years apart! smh. I have to say I don't follow on that one at all.
Because an 18 year old is a senior in high school or a freshman in college. After I graduated from college, I would not have dated a senior in high school or a freshman in college.

I'm 25. I would love to date a woman who is older than me as long as I found her attractive.

It is good to read so many good stories. I am 38 and he is 18. He doesn't seem that young, he is very mature for his age. We have fun together and I can be myself with him. But I am so scared of what people are going to say. He wants to be in a relationship but there are things he hasnt thought of. He don't have any kids and I have three. One day i know he is gonna want kids and my tubes are tied.

Rubbish, there are few women in their late 30s or 40s who would go out with a teenager. Where do you come up with this nonsense? 18 year olds are kids, they're stupid, arrogant and juvenile. Aren't you in your late 30s? How icky that you'd date a kid

Why though. I guess that means that when you got your Ph.D. you wouldn't date anyone who doesn't have one yet? lol
