Why Young Women Often Date Older Men

@chinani

That is a very good player and we (GUNNERS) love him so much. People call him King HENRY. The real name is Thierry Henry. He is a player of Arsenal. Do you play soccer or watch it?

@ TYPOP

I do occasionally play soccer. But I have NO natural talent for it and require skilled "coaching".  I love to watch though. The energy and athleticism is awesome.


@ alj

Is that what this topic is about? A 10 year age gap? I honestly don't know b/c I didn't read ALL of the former answers/questions. I've certainly never dated anyone that old but when I was 17 I had my very first job and this man in his mid/late 30s kept following me around asking me out. He couldn't take my polite "No thank you" so finally one day an older girl (22) was like, "So at you're next birthday will you be 35 or more like 38? What'll think your wife will get you?" Turns out he was married, but that's another story. . .


It is kind of sleazy from the g.u.y's point of view. What if the girl's really, really mature for her age. I mean if women are usually 3-5 years more mature than a man and she's really mature for her age, isn't a man 10 years her senior, just her size??? I'm curious about what you think.

Guys i can observe  8o % of  our ladies in nairaland likes it that way,so since we are all men let us not seperate, de ladies carry go. 

@chinani
thats a word I've not heard in ages - athleticism. You must be sound. Try and watch the premiership anyway and have a good team you support - like Arsenal. (hey, don't start soccer arguments here OK?)

i want the practice of girls dating much older men to continue ; so that when am  old ill always have a good supply of about 4 to 5 girls giving me a wonderful body massage at the same time. one will just be rubbiing my big tummy only, another will be massaging my feet.one would be stroking my WARHEAD , the other will use an electical massager to sooth my shoulder muscles.

i will be everything the girls have said they prefer old men for - ranging from maturity,being a caring sugar daddy to having very deep pockets( God will bless me with bottomless pockets)

this kind of massage will be the favorite treat i will ask of my young lovers ; may the girls continue to like old men , so i can have a fun filled old age 

I'm glad I read this thread. Now I know a woman can jump out of the pot and into the frying pan. As TYPOP said, many young women don't date older men for money. Many just think that older men might be more respectful, wiser, more knowledgable, and sincere than younger men. I mean I'm 21 and I don't want to date someone who looks up to 50 Cent, Kobe Bryant or any nonsense like that. But from what I see/read, older men like to take advantage.

The difference is the age. With age comes experience. If you've had 5 girlfriends in the past and probably a wife to add to that number, you've amassed enough experience with which to tantalise most ladies. Just like fine wine, men get better with age.

I'm not saying I like the trend, but then that's life for you.

Ever wondered why some guys that adore their wives and also enjoy same from their wives are often perceived by their peers as old-fashioned. 

@Rhea,


Can you state an example?

That's a really antiquated view Idekeson. Do you think that applies to this day & age?

Many ladies do that 4 a lotta reasons that suit them, or just for the fun/experience of it*money inclusive here*.
But let me ask u guys, what about an age difference of say 13 m d guy's hell bent on marriage?

celine dion married an old man not for money or love but the frustration of not having a child,God so good what the young men could not do the old man did.

Bianca's marriage to ojukwu at least proves that natural love still exist b/w them, is not that bianca was poor before she got married to him, we all know whom Chief C.C. Onu is, but because she loved him, imagine a known man in this town (musicians) sang at a naming ceremony of a new born baby but when the baby grew up, he got married to her that RIDICULOUS don't  they consider the age difference ?,

They are more mature and less self centered.


Financially stable,

and very experienced

 Woman that died in the Caribbean ,forgot her name with three guys claiming her baby.Thats a good example.

am sure , dating older men isnt a crime,
But the truth is, deep in your mind u know u re missing more than enough when u see ur age group with
their yound fit sexy men.
don't be a loser, !

@alj"i really cannot think of anyone i know male or female that has dated anyone anymore than 10 years older or younger. does this really happen as often as people say it does or is it just another myth?  if i knew a man my age (32) was dating a girl of say 18 to 22 i would regard him as a bit immature perhaps scared of being an adult ( unless she were an exceptional young woman like rhodalyn or hot angel)  perhaps i will change as i get older but right now i find it a bit sick."
 
Hey, I know what you are talking about, I have a friend she is 22, and was dating a 37 yr old man, and ladies let me tell you guys, becso someone is older than you doesn't make him matured, because this guy wasn't matured from what he did to my friend. He took advantage of her, to extend that my friend is still in shock right, talking about she won't date again. He used her in every form, so you'll should be careful in watever you'll are doing because this older guys are just using you guys!
