They do, but then the older women hate the younger men because they won't marry/have kids with them.

Also they're earlier in their career and life experience and those tend to be a lot more important to older women so it makes for a weird power dynamic and often doesn't last. Older men dating young women don't tend to care about their social status and where they are with their career.

by Anonymous 9 months ago

This is very true. Men don't care about women's social status/career as much cuz they assume the woman will kind of fall in line and go with them, which often happens. Younger dudes might enjoy having an older woman for a while, but generally aren't going to go along with their lives and the dudes want their own livs.

Umm… no? Women can be financially supportive too. Plenty are breadwinners. Lots of dudes out there with a wife who makes bank. And even if they aren't in the 1/6 who make more than their man, a third of women make just as much as their male partner. "About 16% of wives are the breadwinners in their families, while another 29% earn roughly the same amount as their husbands, according to the analysis, which is based on several sources of data including the U.S. Census Bureau and the American Time Use Survey."

Personally, the reason that I fear dating women my own age or older is because I still haven't worked out certain issues that I went through because of my generation or older, but younger people in my experience seem to be more accepting and less likely to judge as quickly. Though, I admit that the reason younger people act this way is likely because of the things that my generation and older learned and passed down, so in time I might be able to find someone my own age that I can be comfortable with.

I think us men are expected to know where we are in life and sort ourselves out, and women can be a wreck financially or emotionally, and they'd be fine. Which is kinda sad and makes me think men are at a disadvantage when looking for a partner.

not true anymore tbh, women who like their careers will continue their careers regardless of what their man does. The women who 'fall in line' typically don't like their jobs in the first place like a lot of us out there and quit the moment they have the option

Second hand experience. Got a good friend who's in her late 30's and unmarried. Always been into younger guys. Currently coming to terms with being an unmarried, childless, career woman nearing 40. She's attractive too. Just apparently too picky/high maintenance.

by Anonymous 9 months ago

Well, if she expects the guys to be a financially stable as her, then it might be high standards. Guys, especially younger, aren't super financially stable or sometimes they aren't the most mature, which is usually what I see women that go up from a certain age like.

by Anonymous 9 months ago

I've met so many really immature older men (and honestly, also older women). I think past a certain age, maturity is a myth. Not to say that age isn't important, there are certainly generational differences that shape us and there is a difference in a 35 year old whose been beaten down over and over and an optimistic 20 year old. But that doesn't mean the 35 year old is a better partner. But if you are looking to have kids and secure the most money for your nuclear family, then sure, the older man younger woman relationship definitely makes sense. But a lot of people aren't looking for that kind of relationship anymore.

by Anonymous 9 months ago

maturity is a mindset, not an age. some people never grow up while others have had to take care of parents as kids.

I'd say maturity is a collection of lessons learned. You can go your whole life without learning certain lessons or just as easily learn them very early.

by Anonymous 9 months ago

I think maturity matters until you get to about 30. Then everyone is on equal footing. There's a difference between a 20 year old and a 40 year old.

by Anonymous 9 months ago

While I agree, personally dealing with so many outliers makes this feel off even when it isn't.

by Anonymous 9 months ago

There's a difference between an 18 and 25, there's a difference between a 20 and a 30. That's why normal people get alarm bells seeing relationships of those gaps or greater. Even a 40 and a 60 will seem weird. There's many stages to a person's life and maturity, if you're not in the same phase you'll have clashing needs and desires which leads to a gap in common ground outside of superficial urges. Depending how quickly someone grows into the next phase of their maturity and life you could easily be in your 30s and incompatible with someone else in their 30s who hasn't got the same responsibility or motivation. There's no pure science to it but typically things meet a sniff test.

I'm sure having a career path is important to her but from my perspective it's mostly that she wants a tall, fit, white collar guy who comes from a good family and loves to travel, ski etc. So, any dude in that category who is 28-32 will be dating women between roughly 21 and 36. Probably more than one of them at a time. And when they look 5 years into the future with a cute 21 year old they see a 26 year old potentially carrying their child, maybe they are living together and saving for a house. When they look 5 years into the future with a 36+ year old they see two kids, a mortgage and a premenopausal wife. It's a huge commitment. And it's the long term commitment that these guys are backing away from. They don't want to grow up yet. They want to play around a few more years. Maybe they'll have kids when they're 40. She wants marriage, a house and kids NOW. She doesn't have time to say, "maybe some time in the future we'll get married and have children." I tell her to look for men in the 40-50 year old range because one might be thrilled have a cute 30-something to carry their baby but she really isn't interested in those guys. So, she's single.

Are you just assuming she is 'high-mainatenance' or there is evidence of that? Women in mid 30's go for younger men because these is all we get. Men our age are rarely single and when they are, they go for younger women.

by Anonymous 9 months ago

Trust me -- she will be happier able to stand on her own two feet than if she had "settled", compromised on her career, had kids, and then been left by a dude for a younger woman. The problem isn't her standards. It's that too many guys are unreliable partners, and if there aren't enough who are up to par, some of us are actually better off on our own.

by Anonymous 9 months ago

If "too many" are unreliable, then surely narrowing it down even further with ridiculous expectations is a problem? Wanting to find a financially-stable good-looking man with similar hobbies, works well with her and who's immediately ready to settle down seems like a big ask for what may be a pretty undesirable woman. If she's single when there's however many million men out there, then she likely needs to evaluate herself or her expectations.

It's generally for different reasons though. Younger men hate younger women for going for older men because the younger men want the young women them for themselves & fear they have a disadvantage. Older women hate older men for going for younger women because they (or someone they're close to) were likely preyed on for their inexperience in the past and want to try prevent the next generation from having to experience that. I hate my sister's boyfriend not because I want him for myself (ew) but because he's a predatory 36 year old man who went after a teenager, impregnated her and then (plot twist we all saw coming) beat her while she was pregnant.

Many women are complete hypocrites. When I was in college and my early 20s, women my age would date guys who were 5 or 10 years older than them and brag about it. They much preferred that over guys their own age. Then when I hit my mid-thirties and would date women who were 10 or so years younger than me, those very same female friends would criticize me for it. Hypocrites.

I think I speak for a lot of older women when I say that they don't want the "older men who go after younger women."

Most of the time, it seems, if an older man is going after a younger woman, he's not the sort of person anyone should want to be involved with.

by Anonymous 9 months ago

Yeah, no. This isn't accurate at all. Most women dislike older men that go for younger women because it's gross and predatory. Young women only fall for it because they're young/inexperienced, the guys their age aren't usually interested in the same things they are, and the notion of dating an older guy has been romanticized. I can promise you that most older women who dislike the men who go for younger women have had a personal bad experience with said situation when they were younger— whether it was them personally or maybe a friend/family member. It has nothing to do with being jealous, it has everything to do with finding men who do that to be creeps, but knowing there's not much we can do about it.

by Anonymous 9 months ago

I'm not out here hating anyone, I'm just out here dating someone on the same wavelength as I am and hanging out with people who largely do the same. That usually translates to dating someone close to your own age, regardless of gender, but sometimes it doesn't. It's only noteworthy when someone *exclusively* seeks out large age gaps or refuses to date close to their own age, but most of the people I know who do that are perpetually single.

Women want to be with men who have experience, and are not broke. Those men tend to be older. Then 10 years later, those men that were ignored who now have experience and money, don't want to be with the woman who would have ignored him 10 years ago. Also, now that they have experience and money, they have options.

In my 38m experience younger women have more enthusiasm and fun in the sack that older women. Older women tend too be too particular of specific in what gets them off. This causes issues when the more equally aged but energetic male is faced with a decreased or absent sex drive in a woman of similar age. Hence why older men go for younger women. Older women on the other hand prefer a younger more malleable and manipulated males who can be conditioned to "work" the way the older female wants.
