Icon134 0 #1 May 11, 2006 Ok... this post is at the request of someone else... The question is which do you prefer to date... do you prefer dating someone older, younger, or does age not matter a whole lot? I've been directed to say... and Why?

Nightingale 0 #2 May 11, 2006 I usually end up dating people who are older. Edited to add: It isn't age, in particular, though. It's maturity that's the major factor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soulshine 0 #3 May 11, 2006 I tend to date men that are older than me, usually by about 8-10 years. I don't look for men that are older, that just happens to be the age range that I am attracted to.

freefallfreak 0 #4 May 11, 2006 I voted younger cause there just aren't many active women older than me left. TripleF "Upon seeing the shadow of a pigeon, one must resist the urge to look up." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RkyMtnHigh 0 #5 May 11, 2006 I've mostly dated or married those my same age or younger. Only explanation I can think of is that older men run in different circles than me. *shrug* Honestly, I don't have an answer as to why. _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PRSKY71 0 #6 May 11, 2006 Always dated men 4+ years older. A couple of blind dates within the 1-2 year difference -- with my date being older than me. At this point, and very much to my surprise, I am with a younger man!! Two months younger than me but acts like 15 years younger than me!! P.S. As to the "why" in age difference, I just always felt safe and they always felt emotionally available. I can't explain it any better than that.

It's important to be emotionally available to your SO just as much as it is for them to be that for you. _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The largest age difference between myself and someone that I dated was 15 years. Yeah, I caught alot of shit for that.

downwardspiral 0 #18 May 11, 2006 I don't necessarily draw a line at a certain age. If we click, we click. I had a lady tell me I was too young for her since she liked older men. Then she tells me had I lied about my age then things might be different. Then she proceeded to try to convert me into an activist vegan. *shudder* I know I'm not perfect. I certainly don't pretend to be. But come on... at least don't use a ridiculous excuse for letting me down easy. I'd certainly rather hear the truth. I'm a big boy. I can take it. but I digress... I prefer older women, however, if you happen to be younger, and we click then age makes no difference.www.FourWheelerHB.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soulshine 0 #19 May 11, 2006 No, I'm not into polygamy. I'm just a bit odd and it works for me so I don't see myself changing anytime soon. Bombing for peace is like fucking for virginity! ~DEVIOUS BEEF~~FGF #69~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boinky 0 #24 May 11, 2006 I don't think that age matters as much as attitude. My honey is 5 years younger than I am. He can be as young and silly acting as me at times...which I thoroughly enjoy. But no matter what, he is always honest, dependable and faithful, which are qualities I admire in a person, no matter what their age is. I always say, "Age is a mind over matter. If you don't mind....it doesn't matter." Nina Are we called "DAWGs" because we stick our noses up people's butts?
