Hi guys...In my opinion, it all depends what age group are you into.
With an age difference bigger than 10/12 years, you're asking for trouble. There could be exceptions, obviously, but in general, no.
Too many guys like to go after the young ones, regardless of their own age.
And there is no reason really for a younger woman to feel attracted by a guy 25, 30 years older. Other than financial considerations, of course.
We all have heard of the older guys ditching their spouses for that "trophy wife".
What I'm trying to say is that at certain age, you have to stay within your age group to avoid these "scam artists".
And this is true for both sexes: I'm sick and tired of looking at women's profiles, in their early or middle 60's, to find out they want a guy from his 40's or 50's.
I can understand why they do it, but those guys are chasing the younger women...why they would go for an older woman..???
Eventually, everything will come down to $$$$...
And last...but not least: why do you guys keep on chatting and chatting...???
After a few messages back and forth, the way to go is the phone...and if things go well, move to a face to face meeting.
The longer it takes to meet in person, the lesser the chances that that will happen.
Cheers.
