Dating younger men vs. older men

I never dated anyone older than me which is sad but i think it would definitely be 2 different experiences , idk which i would lean more towards cause i never dated anyone older but stay tuned lmfao

When I think ab it, I haven’t dated anybody at least 10 years older so I guess I can’t really compare the two too much. Just maybe a few years older. 

I always dated men around my age until I met my now fiance.  He's 10 years older than me, but has loads of energy and looks super young! He's much more sure of himself and what he wants out of life compared to the men I was dating in my early 20s.  Seems to always have his shit together, is calm and collected, and supports me the way no one else did.   

both honestly suck lol. It's rare to find someone decent in any age group at this point.

It's 2022, and y'all still dating men? The Kevin Samuels' (and many other online dating advice gurus/ male podcasts, mostly on tiktok) of the world haven't told you that man ain't shit, yet?

There are still matured younger men out there

easy. older men. more experienced, knows more than me. i could actually rely on them for stuff.

I love old men. I love their luscious wrinkles and beautiful hairy chests. 

i have never dated anyone younger than me, in fact i have only dated one person in my entire life and he was a year older than me

Anyway, I really like older men but I think I wouldn't have a problem with dating someone younger, they're cute 💗

I’m actually dating someone that is close to 25 years older than me

Got experience, can rely on him for anything and I love him

Older all the way, maybe its just that boys my age are immature and all incels that older men seem so mature, collected and stable

well... it really doesn't matter i guess. i just find older men attractive but i won't say no to any boys at my age or younger i mean, 16+

sometimes it's really all about personality and looks 

Love me my older men. 

La menores son muy inmaduros y los mayores muy hormonales JAJSJA (o bueno así me pasa a mi) 

i always make jokes with my friends about marrying a forty year old but idk, i had a relkationship with a guy who was a year and a half older than me and it was rlly traumatizing. i tried to convince myself That our age gap wasn't noticeable when I was a teenager bnut he had went through so much... and I had to deal with his traumas etc etc.

Then I fell in love with a guy who is just a few months younger than me and it hurt even more than the """"older"""" guy I dated. XDD 

I guess my "fictional" (per se) preference is older men, however at this point I don't know. It has a bit to do with my daddy issues that I have to resolve T-t

sorry 2 dump i'm going through a hard time figuring my romantic/emotional experiences etc etc abd talking about it irl is hard

idk.. mostly every relationship or guy that ive talked to who was older than me always ended really bad i feel like its cause they consider themselves more mature than me and think theyre too cool to be in a relatiobship but ive never actually dated anyone younger than me

girl as someone whose dated young and old they both full of absolute bs but if i HADD to choose older all the way for settling but them younger ones more fun and freaky ish. overall depends on you and what you want. 

i like older boys cuz theyre so mature and patient with me. i dated a boy just a few months younger than me and it was absolutely terrible and maybe the most toxic relationship ive had. 

currently dating a man about 4 year older than me, i feel like its a way better experience than the times ive dated men one year older, or even a month younger than me. more secure, he knows what he wants, and instability isnt a thing in our relationship.

I prefer older men (and women), though of course, I'll have to wait until I'm 18 to pursue such a relationship (which luckily for me, is in just a few more weeks from now).

Fellow old souls trapped in a younger body (like myself) are my only exception to this. Looks and maturity are both very important to me.

Alright, it's been a few weeks since I posted my last reply here. I'm now 18 and can finally try and go for someone born prior to the turn of the millennium (unless they're fellow and also legal old souls like me as the only exception to this rule). :D

Psych graduate weighing in, 
So a lot of books will tell you that the older male younger female dynamic is ideal. One such book is "The Real Rules," By Jimmy Ricard. 
In it, he mentions something I refer to as the butterfly theory. 

That is: 
If we consider Women as flowers and men butterflies we can also get the idea that a young man is a caterpillar. Reading further he goes on to say that dynamic a younger man exists only to consume and use the flower where a butterfly exists to pollinate and assist in its growth. That is to say that having someone who is more of a mentor figure is healthier than perhaps someone of like age who will get into like trouble or accidentally cause irreversible emotional damage. Of course this is in regards to dating and while I personally date to wed, I know that the general american culture is more lenient towards the idea of dating around. 
In the case of dating around one can easily see why someone who is younger is the better pick. Im often the older in my relationships but I feel like it gives a certain sense of *Parontage* of my partner; if that means anything. 

Life led me to both ends, was not cool. The oldest I dated was 10 years older than me, and I have gotten romantically involved with a man 20 years older than me, I also dated people my age or slightly older, nothing really worked...ever.

olderrrrr

tbh older men all the way !! :3

Dated a guy older than me once, and based on my experience, age doesn't really play a part. The guy I was with was barely assertive or even mature.. You can be older and gone through stuff, but if that doesn't make you make wise decisions, then it's a big L.

someone older i think
