Older men

I just want to know people's opinions on a girl (22yrs) dating older men(say between 30 and 48). I have always been into older guys. They know how to treat a woman... What are your thoughts?

i dont think its right for that much older cuz my mom dated a 53 year old when she was 34 and it didnt work out cuz they are in two different generations.She also dated a 25 year old when she was 37 n that didnt work either. so i think no more the a few years like 2 or three.

I see what you are saying .[[Traci - Suicidal Romance]]. but, I am atttracted to older men too. I am in high school though so the guys that are my age are really immature and I have very little patience with them. I know that girls mature faster than boys and they will catch up eventually.
My aunt is 10 years older than my uncle, I mean they weren't 15 and 25, they were older when they got married but they are so in love, so I really don't think that age matters when you love someone. You cant help who you love.

i agree with wishful thinker,everybody looks with a different eye when you're with someone old but the important thing is to be happy with him..
Races,distances,oldness don't affect your love
IT's just a thing that your heart chooses if you mean love
my sweetie is 26 by the way and he always know how to keep me happy.
It's his b-day on 6 th...

My friend's mom is 32 and her dad is 62. I dont think it is right whenever you are a teenager going after and older guy but the same for a younger boy going after a woman. Either way, it could turn out bad. How I see it, though, if both people are mature adults, then whats the problem.

Just my opinion. =]

I know not the worries of dating younger woman...for I am only 20 =P

I suppose it isn't wrong for two adults to be in a relationship. As long as there is mutual agreement, appreciation, affection, acceptance, and attraction. Alright...enough said (can't think of anything letter A beginning words that would apply haha).

My parents are 13 years apart.

me2!! mi dad is 53 and my mom just turned 40

My dad's 60 and my mom is 47

wow ur parents r older than mine....but im still a kid i guess...

well i guess ill just say there is nuthin wrong with it as long as it isnt a huge difference, but i have takin an interest in older women(not more that 3 or 4 years) because most younger girls are VERY immature, but i guess that guys r just the same so wateva

I like older guys. They're all I like actually. but the oldest I've been with was only like 6 years older

My mother and father are seven years apart. The guy I currently like is four years older than me. And it feels surprisingly better when you like someone a little older. I mean, the kind of idiots my age that people think I'd like, hell no. Pants around ankles and spitting on side roads does not impress me. Fahad's just perfect. perfect, perfect, perfect... :)

...HOWEVER.
And I should've made this point earlier, actually. There are a number of relationships that do not work out, and a large age difference (say, around 15 years and above) is a factor to blame. It's not for all situations, although understanding someone in an emotional state becomes difficult when they're decades older than you. I'm just saying, anyway.

"but men never gorw up... they just look older lol...."

^Indeed!

I resent that!!

I don't think age has much to do with it, it's the men you date. Their personality, not their age.

Personalitly plays a major part in it, but ok, you have to admit, its more than a little creepy if the woman is like 22 and the man is like 93 or something!! (or vise versa) Then, that is just weird... lol. But if it's only a few years, then, yeah, I'm all on board for older men, I'm 15 (16 in one month, yay!!!) and my ex is 18. Things worked out great, we had an awesome realtaionship, but he is going to college, so he decided to end it now instead of making it harder later. Back to the topic... I think it just depends mostly on the maturity level of the people in question....

.:Danielle:.

^^^^^ Deal with it, Colby. :)

But not all are like that!!!

^I know. I'm speaking of the majority here. Which could very well rule you out, lol.

All depends.

I like older men because they are more mature and the have their life togther...(well most of them). Young guys are too busy trying to see how many females they can get with, and they not ready for a mature relationship.

Well, of course they know how to treat women. They've had enough experiance to know waht we like to hear. I can honesly tell you that dating someone older causes suspision. My 15 year old cousin went out with a 19 year old...ended up getting pregnant. At first of the relationship, he would tell her how beauitful she was, how much she means to him, and all that stuff. She of course fell for it and went out with him. After she found out she was pregnant, he started getting b*tchy, he started cussing at her, he would call her fat, he was MEAN to her. I think older men wanted younger girls because they know what we want to hear and what we like and before you know it BOOM they have us hooked into their trap. My opinion. But yes, my limit is 2 years older wich is still to much. My boyfriend is a year older than me but pretty matrue for his age. I can't stand immaturity for guys. But just my opinon on older guys.

True... sometimes the older guy will take advantage to other younger women, and most will not know what to do and get into trouble of some sort.

I am with an older man....think long and hard before you do go with an older man is my advice.He hates me having friends ,hates me going out ands gets extremely jealous of the slightest little thing and is always convinced i'll run of with someone my own age.At times I feel like a prisoner.

I agree with you hunny. I normally refuse to date a guy who is younger then me. But lately I have found that some guys who are younger then me or close to my age can be really sweet. So you know older guys are cool and yeah they know hoe to treat their girls. But sometimes you have to give the other guys a chance to.

Hm... well, age doesn't matter if they are in love, but it can be a problem for some..

Can't really say anything, since I'm a guy.

Go for it
Older men are more understanding
Your type are usually very mature for their age
Now thats a compliment too you !
Good luck go where your heart leads you
You won't be sorry

OK, I've always liked guys older then me, but I've actually had a guy in his late 40's ask me to marry him *and I was 16 at the time* I said NO of course because I did view him a lot like another father but 10 or so years apart isn't that bad at all =) Both people just have to understand and remember that the other one is at a different part in their life and sees things different because of those extra years ^_^ I can't stand most of the guys around my age that I know =P My boyfriend is 6 months older then me *turning 18 close to the end of the year* and I love being around him and his friends =D Their more mature then the guy 15 or 16 =)
But everyone that said that if you love someone then the age *within reason* doesn't matter one bit =0 Follow your heart and be smart and you can't go wrong =)

I do agree

To Each His/Her Own.

It's not ALWAYS the age; it's the people, although age should be taken into consideration because it can affect the relationship, especially if two people are so far apart in age that they are in completely different stages in their life. That's not always fun.

I think age only plays a part if one of the two are two young. say a 17 year old and a 26 year old. thats 26 year old aint in the right mind set. (my opinion) my grandma is 73 and her husband is 60. (they aint happy BECAUSE of the age difference.) my boyfriend and i are 4 years different and have been together a year and a half and i know in my heart he's the one i'll marry. age plays a part in some cases, but not all

I think in just depends on the age difference. I think the most years that someone should be older than you should be 8 years. that's a long difference too but andy older and you would be messed up.

Age doesnt really matter, but my friend is kinda mad at me cuz i got the guy she likes and hes a senior in highschool, coming up on his 18th birthday, and i am a freshman, just coming to my 14th b-day

I think it's natural for girls to like older guys especially in high school because a lot of guys are losers sorry to say and are very immature. So if a girl wants to find a guy who can actually hold a conversation for more then 16 seconds she might want to up her age range about 2 years. Not all guys but about 90% lol
