love 'em

Definitely. However, it is still crucial to strongly consider the (Your Age/2) + 7 rule when thinking about marriage. This is due to the fact that women tend to drop off a cliff in comparison to men.

it would be illegal for me to have a wife then.

actually, male mortality rate is at least 10-20% higher than women.

tell your mom hi for me.
to answer your question, no, old people are gross. they should neither be talked to nor should their presence be acknowledged. we should study them to see what chemicals might be extracted to improve the lives of younger people. then we should whip donuts and or cupcakes at them.

psssttt...he's not talking about mortality rates

One of you may be talking on a mortality level, and the other on a superficial one.

Men make up the majority of construction workers/miners/laborers, where many accidents happen. Men get in physical fights more often than women. Men are more often heavy smokers and drinkers, but recently women are trying to make that more equal too (lung cancer rates are equaling out across gender). All of these societal contribute to the shorter average lifespan of men.

I haven't seen a girl "my age" in a long time. You wouldn't even believe me if I told you the oldest 😉

The most important characteristics I look for in a girl are:
1) being genuine and honest
2) being generally interested in the world around her
3) being humble yet confident

Those general attributes seem to be more common in women of a certain age (although by NO means does age necessarily equate with maturity). There are definitely younger girls who are composed and have a mature outlook, but that is more the exception than the rule.

good thread idea btw,

I'm 22 and Id say late 20's is pushin it in terms of how far I'll go, but for some reason I always get hit on by chicks in the 30-35+ crowd. I guess they're more outgoing or confident. The younger chicks have a weird habbit of staring all night rather than approaching you. Then I have to do all the work.

 

[nikibean]

As an "older chick" (I guess, I'm in the late 20s crowd) who's hanging out with a 31 yo guy who's always dated older women until me, we were discussing this very fact. He thinks that more mature women are more receptive to being given to (take that as you will), and they know how to give other people space. I think as you get older in general, you start to accept people as they are instead of falling for an idea of who they might be and trying to change them.
From personal experience, I feel like I'm WAY more confident than I was in my early 20s, I know what I want, and I'm not afraid to ask for it. If I'm not getting it, then I'm out. Simple. Takes a lot of crashing and burning before you get to that spot though.

Nice thread. Probably belongs in the lounge, though.

Buddy of mine has never allowed age differences to interfere in dating. A few years back he was involved with a woman more than twice his age. They eventually went their separate ways because he wanted a family, but she was already a grandmother. He's now dating a woman who is ~10 yrs younger than he is.

 

[Orthodoc40]

Well I'm glad a few of my future classmates may like older women cause that's definitely me at least in most of your definitions! And I can tell that earlier poster for sure there isn't any drop off....at least not for a looonng time.... 😉 (80's maybe?!!)

 

[swifteagle43]

I am like 20 and I am into like 22 year olds

 

[bubbleyum]

I am like 20 and I am into like 22 year olds

oh my gosh.

i think you misused the title of "older chick" here, sonny.

 

[SeventhSon]

never, ever been into a chick who was more than a year older than me. Never even been into a chick that was more than 2 years younger than me.

i guess i'm picky

 

[combatmedic]

Love em 👍 My first GF was 5 yrs older than me

 

[tehrawr]

I have a sister who is two and a half years younger than me. Just the idea of dating a chick more than a year younger than my age bugs me. I'd feel like I was going out with my sister.

I wonder what Freud would have to say about this thread...

I need to find a girl who has the same exact birthday as me. I also want her to be at the same intellectual level, but in a completely different field... maybe law, so she can help me handle the innumerous malpractice suits I'll get from whiney patients who complain that they "needed" that liver, or kidney, or whatever... sheesh such cry-babies. But I digress. If these two conditions are satisfied, it helps contribute to keeping the balance of power in the relationship stable.

 

[cfdavid]

I need to be careful here, but it's my experience that there's a HUGE difference in maturity from the early 20's to late 20's. Also, for the guys out there, be assured that you have much to look forward to as you approach your late 20's (and even early 30's). It's a great age for guys. You'll be in the drivers seat in a big way.

Oh, you mean when women get to their late 20's they magically stop being inarticulate, illogical, petty, and completely clueless? Great news! Can't wait.

Wooo let's take bets on the last post # before this gets moved to the lounge...

I call 47.

You would be old one day. Have some respect for the elderly, they have been living in this world much longer than you. I hope your post was a joke, which was not funny.

I'm sure it was, and yes, it was. And that (jebus' post), my friends, was hyperbole!

You think that's ever going to happen? Well, I hope so.

 

[swifteagle43]

I still think some guys are more mature than most women. I think I be too mature for most of the girls my age.

 

[MN81]

Definitely. However, it is still crucial to strongly consider the (Your Age/2) + 7 rule when thinking about marriage. This is due to the fact that women tend to drop off a cliff in comparison to men.

I would have married a 17.5-year-old, if I followed this rule when I got married.

Illegal in MN.

 

[notdeadyet]

I think the attraction to women (or men) who are older is pretty clear. When you're in your twenties, you're very much a work in progress. By the time you hit your thirties, you're pretty much the person you'll be the rest of your life. It's nice to be in a relationship with someone that you know will be the same person five years down the road.

 

[infiniti]

I don't know if older is the right word to use. But I would go out with someone 4 years older than I am. That puts her a little past mid 20s.

I think mature girls (somewhat but not totally correlated to age) know what they want = fun/good relationship. I am not interested in helping a girl determine her identity.

 

[jebus]

i would go out with a girl who puts out for me. and by go out, i mean use for a couple of weeks until i get bored of her and i find someone else.

 

[jhrugger]

Quite right. Mature girls have more clearly defined their own interests and motivations and are more direct with their partners. Good communication is a folcrum of a successful relationship and/or sex life.

well said 👍
