Older Women Dating Younger Men
Posted by: | CommentsWith modern cosmetics, creams, surgeries, and super supplements, women don’t look the same as their counterparts a few generations ago. Today there aren’t the restraints on appropriate age or gender behavior like generations of the past had. Many sexual taboos of our grandparents can be witness on prime time TV. We live in a different time, a time where older women are dating younger men.
Some want to believe it is just about the sexual match, though it plays a part in it, there is much more to it than that. Other factors:
- Opportunity
- Time
- Independence
- Openness
- Maturity
- Self-confidence
OPPORTUNITY
There is more opportunity for older women to date younger men in our current culture. Due to previous generations that weren’t accepting of younger men dating older women, many men didn’t bother asking an older woman out. Now that it is commonplace and publicized on TV and in print, older women dating younger men is more common. Not only will younger men ask older women, the women are comfortable and confident enough to make the first move.
TIME
Younger women are often working hard and long hours on their career. When the day is done they are caring for their small children. Their free time on the weekends is usually focused on children’s activities. Older women’s children are usually grown or at least old enough to be busy with their own lives, giving mom free time. Younger men usually aren’t the primary caretaker for their children (if they have any children at all). They enjoy the time an older woman has to spend with them. An older woman’s career usually isn’t consuming her time and energy.
INDEPENDENCE
Older women dating younger men don’t have to deal with an older man’s need to take care of her; because that was the generation they were raised in. A younger man not only expects a woman to be independent he appreciates it. A younger man can be more supportive of her accomplishments.
OPENNESS
Sadly, many people get set in their ways. An older woman appreciates a younger man’s openness. Many older women have raised kids, been married, and have a stable career. They are ready to shift their focus from their responsibilities to themselves and are ready to have some fun. They are often open to trying new things in all areas of a relationship, which is right up most young men’s alley!
MATURITY
Younger men are dating older women because they like the maturity older women have. An older woman tends to be straight forward, knows what she wants, knows what works for her, and isn’t going to waste time playing games. Many younger men don’t want to “raise” a girlfriend. Younger men are happy to teach older women about a new interest instead of having to teach them about the basics of living away from parents for the first time.
SELF-CONFIDENCE
There is a certain level of self-confidence that is only achieved through live experiences. This can be really appealing to a man after spending an evening constantly reassuring his date all evening her hair looks fine! Older women dating younger men aren’t dependent on the men. They know how to function in society alone and are with a younger man by choice, not necessity.
Older women dating younger men with common interests can develop into a mutually fulfilling relationship where age truly doesn’t matter.
