i have found, we have a physical age and a mind/soul age. i allow myself to gravitate to the latter, regardless of the former. find your gravity point, because all in all, it's what works best for you that matters.

i have found, we have a physical age and a mind/soul age. i allow myself to gravitate to the latter, regardless of the former. find your gravity point, because all in all, it's what works best for you that matters. I agree with that!  My mind/soul age is 35 - 38. That's what my best friend, has put me at!

I don't know I just feel like it creeps me out that someone Im dating would get along better and have more things in common with my dad than me. It just doesn't feel right to me. Maybe I do need to update my profile but I bet you that it won't make that much of a difference lol Unfortunately, most of the guys are not going to read your profile. You can update it, but it might not make a difference. Mine mentions age and most people don't listen :). You can set a filter if it really bothers you, though. Good luck. |

Whereas I for some reason, feel the sudden sting of despair. Just kidding-I'm all right. TXScoundrel---how long did it take you to come up with that tome you call a list? OMG.
Alisha--good luck. Just a thought for you here, not trying to change your mind, but in some ways age is just a number. When I was 23, I went out with a guy that was about 43. It was one of the best relationships I've ever had. I had just gotten out of a bad relationship, and this guy was really happy to have me in his life and treated me great. He'd lived enough that he wasn't in it for games and appreciated a good woman. Like i said, just a thought.... |

Alisha like it has been stated before , Maybe put that in your profile. That would at least keep them from contacting you. But that doesn;t mean that they won't still look. and maybe restrict your mail settings.

 GREAT,,I didn't even have time to ask YOU out yet,,and some others ARE!!! """MEN"""",,,,,lol  Just because a dude old enough to be your pops,,isn't a reason to find him or them wrong in liking your looks or you....Their asking you anything or telling you anything,,,is STILL all in what YOU SEND BACK? Just tell them their to old for what type of person your wanting to find,,,IF THAT does not stop their inquirers,,then just Block them,,and go on... Personally I have always been flattered as to be given any kind words from ANYONE... And I have 19 and 20 year olds show me attention,or hit on me,,,,and I tell them,,I am old enough to be their dads or with some,,their gramps,,lol,and tell them all my reasons why,,,we just can't try a life partnership,,as MINE is thirty three years past yours...lol But I never make them feel bad for liking me,,I mean damn-it girl,,thats NOT an everyday thing that happens to me,,and I appreciate the hell out of them looking my way at all.. |

I don't know what's wrong with you people!
The poor Girl must be terrified! She already stated that she'd be happy to go out with someone as old as 36. Now will you stop ramming your ideals down her throat. And leave her alone! She wasn't trying to create an arguement. Only making a fair statement. Stop trying to brain wash her, with your sick, twisted ways. I don't care what you get up to, everybody is different. She has no reason to respect your life, if you don't respect hers. Now, stop wasting your time, and be gone! >:O |

I cannot know if she'd be interested in me until after I've asked her. I assume if they really didn't want to hear from me they'd have filtered their mail. But, why discriminate? Why not keep an open mind and see what he has to say? If he's fun, interesting, smart and good looking why would you not want to get to know him? That goes for the younger ones too. |

For many years I would not date younger guys. They were and are persistent. I finally gave it a try and the rest is history.
Point is, they would have had no way of knowing how strong my resolution was not to date younger, until they tried. Older men have the right to go for what they want, the same as younger men. We all hear from people on a regular basis that we could no way be interested in. That's the nature of dating sites and in the "real" world. We learn to weed out the ones we are not interested in. But we can't blame them for trying. There are young women who prefer older men. |

Every time I post on here I worry that my good intentions will be misinterpreted by folks who don't really know my heart and intent-how could they? Maybe she just posted that for young men to read and react to, but I guess I thought she threw that out here to see what others thought of her situation as well as whether there was something different she could do (i.e. the suggestion to change her settings). If not, sorry, Alicia ! |

You are trying to make her open minded, to something that she finds disgusting. You are fighting a losing battle. I hate Peas, I find them revolting and toxic. No matter how much you try to convince me, that they are good and tasty. I would still find them revolting and toxic. You just wouldn't change my mind. This young lady does not like older dudes. They will never be great to her, no matter what you say. Her boundary is 36. At least respect that. Also when a Lady says an older dude is creepy. Don't take it so personally. She's just saying that she doesn't like, and is not comfortable, with dudes that are so much older then her, coming onto her. I'm sure you are a nice guy. But you won't be changing this young Ladys mind. She knows what she likes, just as you know what you like. You're just going to have to shake hands, and leave it. Peace out dude!

And on the other side, if someone says age does matter, why keep pushing them and saying it doesn't? That's happened to me several times. Some people aren't into those who are much older or much younger. It's all about preferences. I'm sure it's not that hard to find those who don't think age matters at all. |

And I keep hearing from guys closer to my son's age. Same as for any other reason, if I'm not interested, I just let them know. Unfortunately, even if there's a filter of ages 50 to 70 in mine, I still get nudges or friend requests with age very much lower than that... Oh what the heck... just ignore them (mature ones), Alisha. Or better yet, send them my way and I'll send you the ones your age

If not, sorry, Alicia ! Hey, hey! :D I'm sure she was looking for a solution, to her problem. And besides, I didn't mind what you said at all. I was more conserned about the angry mob of males, that she has attracted. A little Girl with Girl talk, is quiet harmless!

If there's one thing I've learned about women, it's you can't change their minds about anything. So, I'm not trying to. I'm simply giving the point of view of a mature man that prefers dating women much younger women and explaining some of the advantages to women that may be interested. She's not the only young woman reading this. |
