Why do Younger Women Like Older Men?

1 Reply

It is impossible to deny that younger women like older men much more attractive and interesting – one just has to look around to find almost every other couple defying the age difference and committing to long term relationships.

Not to mention that these relationships last much longer as compared to the ones with men and women in the same age group. But what is it that works for these couples? Why is it that the age difference acts as a positive force and not a negative one when it comes to love between younger women and older men?

For starters, seeing an established, well settled man tells a woman all she needs to know about a man’s success and drive – two qualities that never fail to build an instant attraction.

Also, the experiences of the added years mean they do have a lot more answers than a boyfriend of the same age. To be able to talk to your partner not just as a lover but also as an adviser is an invaluable asset for a woman in a relationship.

Older men are also typically better behaved and handle situations much better, so that their lady never has to worry about getting into an unnecessary argument with strangers. Too many young women complain about childish behavior of their significant others of the same age, a problem which gets almost completely resolved when they choose to be with older men.

Also, given that older men are more secure both in their life and career; they are more willing to give their lovers all the freedom in the world. They do not start sulking just because their girl was talking to a guy at the bar. They have been there and know it is nothing to be jealous of. This makes women feel more confident of the relationship while also increasing their respect for a man who is understanding and not dominating.
Not to mention that older men are more willing to sit down to discuss situations rather than throw a tantrum and take a fight as an insult to their ego. A woman cannot explain in words just how relaxing it is for her to know she doesn’t have to massage her man’s ego every other day!

Older men are also thoughtful to a fault and take special care to make their lovers feel like a million dollars. Whether it is buying flowers to brighten up a dull day or cooking a special dinner or remembering all the important dates – they know how to make her happy – because they have been through their share of relationships to know what is important.
Older men are also a source of emotional stability and handle crisis situations very well. Also, more and more men are taking good care of themselves by eating healthy and staying fit through regular exercise as they grow older. They look great, have established careers and possess high intelligence and emotional quotient – what else could a woman ask for in the man of her dreams?

Top 5 Reasons For Older Men Dating Younger Women

While the idea of a cougar, or older woman dating younger men, has become a social norm, what about older men dating younger women? The very idea tends to have negative connotations of young women being taken advantage of by older men, but that is certainly not commonplace. In fact, I would argue that there are at least five good reasons why older men should consider dating younger women.

  • Expectations

If you are in your forties, dating women your own age will often come laden with expectations that may not meet your own. These women tend to be looking for a quicker turn-around from dating to the altar than their younger counterparts. With no serious long term plans on the horizon, your expectations are more likely to line up with those of a younger woman.

  • Math

Men like to see the numbers, good hard data, before making a decision. When it comes to women who are available to date, they are more likely to be in their 20s and 30s. Finding a single woman to match your own age, if you are in your 40s or 50s, is going to present a challenge. It makes sense to widen the pool a little bit.

  • Maturity

Let’s face it. Women tend to be more mature than men, at any age. Though we first notice it in junior high when girls are looking down their noses at the “little boys” they are forced to sit next to, it doesn’t end there. A younger woman is going to be entertained by your fun date ideas that may leave a woman your own age rolling her eyes. You can show the “real you” and have fun doing silly things together without judgment.

  • Baggage

Simply, younger women have less of it. While it is not necessarily fair to expect the woman you date to have less skeletons in the closet than you have, life is certainly less stressful if you don’t both have crazy ex’s and family drama to deal with. Obviously, a woman in her 40s or 50s is more likely to have been married and have experienced divorce or death of a spouse. A woman in her 20s or 30s may not have previous spouses or children. They’ve also had less time to become cynical about dating.

  • Ego

This goes both ways. The younger woman dating an older man gains the advantages of his greater experience, knowledge, and usually earning potential. The older men dating younger women is reassured that he’s still “got it.”
