Guys, if you wanted to approach a woman (wherever, not necessarily a bar) and ask her out/get her phone number (im not talking about online, but offline),and she gives you the "Im old enough to be your mother" or some similar response, does it 'hurt' you to hear that? How would you react/how have you reacted? If you really wanted to pursue her, would that comment make you back down?
I am in my 26 and have often noticed myself to be attracted to women old enough to be my mom (I know...no rude comments please) and I know I would get that kinda reaction when apporaching these women so I wanted to know from other men how they deal. I find it easier to talk to them and they stimulate my mind more, although, there is nothing wrong with women my age, except I just dont find 20-somethings that attractive, physically or emotionally, anymore..I wish I could. Its hard going against the grain of society.
Go for it dude. When I was young I liked older women too. If they come back at you with I am old enough to be your mom, hit them with "do you have a problem with that?" and laugh and see where it goes. You have nothing to lose.
When I was younger, "I'm old enough to be your mother" was usually said with a smirk and an effective green light. I rarely heard anything more welcoming.
Just a note, folks. This thread is over 5 years old and was resurrected today by Post No. 111.

I don't entirely agree. I'd say it's a polarizing statement. It either means VERY not interested, or VERY interested, and nowhere in between.
(As a woman) I agree...it could be a kind of pseudo-objection...IOW, testing the waters: "You do know how old I am, right? Are you still interested...?"
For me, personally...I wouldn't degrade myself by explaining that I wasn't going to sleep with the man because I was "old enough to be (his) mother." I'd just say "No thank you." If he protested I'd tell him I was sorry, but just not interested. Why put myself down as my "excuse" not to sleep with him? If I don't want to, I don't want to and that's enough. (JMV...)
I'm happy for you that you found someone who loves you. Genuine love is hard to find and a lot of folks get married that aren't really in love, some because they're only capable of loving themselves. I hope you'll be very happy. And on top of that, she looks pretty hot to me.
