There are certain things which definitely get better with age. Wine is one of them, men, another. Fortunately, for the majority of men, a grey hair here, a love handle there, simply adds to their sliver fox appeal.

But when it comes to relationships, people often consider mixed-age relationships to be bad news, that people who are within a similar age bracket have a higher likelihood of maintaining a successful relationship.


However, this isn’t always the case. From old-school manners to life experience, here’s 10 reasons why older men make the best boyfriends.

1. They’re hot

The salt and pepper hair, the laughter lines, the old-school style … where younger men are trying to recreate the ‘grandad chic’ of cardigans and cords your older boyfriend is doing it without thinking and it looks hot.

Eat your heart out hipsters.

2. They’ve been there and done it

There is a lot to be said for discovering new things together in a relationship, however, when it comes to experience and stories, what beats a man who’s got a few under his belt already.

3. You have different interests

And wouldn’t life be boring if we all liked the same things.

Instead of seeing it as an obstacle, having different interests will mean your relationship is always fresh and interesting.

Jeffrey Archer novels and Neil Diamond concerts? Who knew they could be so fun!

4. They’re financially sorted

Of course not all older men (or women) are financially sorted, but the chances are, the more years notched up on a person, the more established their career will be.

You might not be looking for a ‘sugardaddie’ but dating a man who is on, at least, an equal financial footing, is always going to make a relationship more balanced.

Put another way, your older boyfriend is unlikely to be tapping you for a fiver for a taxi after a night out.

5. Manners

Older men hold doors open, buy the first round and make sure you get home OK.

To some, a bit old-fashioned, to others – refreshingly well-mannered.
