Younger Women Are Better Off With Older Men
In my experience, some of the most successful and lasting relationships have occurred between old men and younger women. So I think they are better off with an older man!

I think its unfair that older aging men get to enjoy being with young vibrant women .

I am 61 and I love younger women. It is a great relationship. They get maturity and deeper caring and stability, and the man gets to taste the vitality of the beauty of youth.

I agree because of one simple fact men mature slower than women so i would prefer to date an older man than to end up with some immature guy that's my age.

If two adults like each other and enjoy being together then age is just a number. It should be left up to them to decide and no one else.

Generally speaking, an older gentleman has gained wisdom thru experience on how best or how better to treat a lady and hopefully how to control his hormones. He is more likely to know that it is not all about him. He is more likely to show more patience and be more respectful.

Yes, it is true that there are guys that are jerks at any age. However, I do believe that with age comes fewer and fewer jerks.

Therefore, I would encourage the younger ladies to not be in such a hurry to discard a guy just because he is 'older' as you just may be missing out on a real good thing. Give us older guys a chane - a fair chance. By all means be careful and selective as you would with any guy of any age. Please don't make a decision based on just one or two trials as not all of us are the same.

I had a teacher that told of his son and cherry pie. He offered his son some cherry pie and he said, "I hate cherry pie." "Have you ever tried it, son?" "No. I just hate it." "So how do you know you hate it if you have never tried it? Why not try it and then you can say that you hate it" "OK, but just one bite" Can you guess what the son's favorite pie is now?

That's right! Enough said?

I'm going to agree, primarily for selfish reason, I think that it would be cool if I was 34 dating a 19 year old.

On a more serious note, I don't see any real benefit with women dating older men, because there are many men who are mature and young and many men who are old and immature.

Although it may seem that older men are more mature, because they've learned to hide their immaturities, that doesn't mean that they are the best choice.

I agree. Older men are better for younger women because of men's maturity level. If you go with a younger guy, you will always be so frustrated with how immature they are. If you go with an older man, he will most likely be closer to the maturity level you are looking for.

I'm on the fence about it, but I think up to maybe a seven year difference would be acceptable. I've found that older men are at the same maturity level as younger women, rather than younger men being as mature as younger women (let's face it - they usually aren't!). I think a small difference is fine, but I don't think younger women should date men that are, like, a twenty, thirty, forty years older than they are.

My Husband and I are 16 years apart, he's 37 and I'm 21. The relationship is great and the best I've ever been in. I've tried dating guys my age and they're too immature. I'm glad that I found a guy who understands me, have same level of maturity as I do, great sense of humor and respectful, loving person. My friends loves him and I personally think it works the best for the relationship: Older man and younger women.

Not everyone is for it, my family hates it and doesn't agree that I'm with a guy who's 16 years older than me. Age difference doesn't matter to us, Love is what counts. After all Love doesn't know age.

I believe they are more stable but it's all a risk.

My husband is 16 years older than me and we have a great marriage. Older men take care of you in a more loving and caring way.They are not like a lot of younger men only interested in one thing, til the next one comes along.

Though there are no hard and fast rules about any age specification between couples but still history says that older men and younger women become better couples than the vice versa. The reason behind this is men have always taken care of women by understanding her requirements. Science says that women get early maturity than men of her age. So in cases where men are older than women, it becomes easier for them to understand and interact with a woman of lesser age and reciprocate her with maturity. Whereas in cases where we find the women to be of the same age or even older than men, it certainly becomes a problem for the couple to match up with each other’s maturity level. This is the reason why we have seen from history till now that a successful match has always been between younger women and older men.

Women need sense of belonging more than a man.... And older man can give sense to women more than a same age can give to each other.
Older men can take care of a women, may be financially and control her emotionally.
Rather than same age relationship have a lot of fights between them.

Like most things, it's impossible to say anything with one hundred percent surety. However, from personal experience, and from the experience of my friends and colleagues, the age difference makes a beneficial difference.

Most younger women meet men of their own age and realise there is a lack of parity in maturity. Even a twenty five year old man is probably not as mature as a twenty one year old woman with her head screwed on straight.

Older men have greater wisdom, are often more chilled out, have better earning capacity, treat their women better, are more stable in terms of home and job. They also known themselves a little better and so don't need to go off on flights of 'finding' themselves. Or use excuses like 'I don't need a girlfriend right now'. Instead, older men are more experienced, more worldly wise, better with people, easier to introduce to your parents and friends. They are also liable to treat you better in general because they know better what they want from a relationship.

Now, I appreciate that this is a generalisation. But it's hard to make a debate without one. In general, I think a younger woman is better off with an older man. I know one of five successful couples where the age difference is nine, eleven and even seventeen years. People always think the problems will come from the age difference, but as long as the couple have similar goals and desires and as long as they have similar desired outcomes in life and communicate with each other well, they are more liable to get on.

Go get yourself an older man and find out!

I personally have to say no tho this younger women r better off with older men.i think its the man and woman personally. Because your age is just a no. You are only as old as you feel.

I think to be honest it depends on the individual as if they are in love i guess age wouldn't really be an issue but personally i wouldn't want to be with someone more than 8 or 9 years older than me.

Ummm... EWW! I don't care if he's like 2-9 years older than her... BUT 17 AND ABOVE!? SICK!
What happens when you're like 65 and your hubby is like a museum? Gross...
Dx
In any relationship, I think 2-9 years apart is acceptable.

I think it depends more on the personality of the individuals. You may find a mature young guy is better for a woman than an older man who is having a midlife crisis! Besides I think it is also about how emotionally mature a person is. Immature older women may enjoy a relationship with someone much younger, it has been known to work..........

I'm not sure. Ya that's how they did it in Bible times and everything, but seriously its kind of sickening to see someone that's like eighteen dating a forty year old.

One one level I don't think the age should be the deciding factor when it comes to knowing if a person is right for you but at the same time I think that too much of an age gap can cause problems all on there own. An example of this would be my mom and biological father. They were 15 years apart and it just didn't work. They were at different points in there lives and although they could relate on some levels on others they just couldn't. Not with all but with some relationships that have large age gaps I think the older party could end up with the tendency of parenting there spouse rather then considering them an equal. Its kind of a catch 22. At the end of the day you have to do what is right for you, and only you can decide what that is. For me my fiance is 6 years older then me and we are polar opposites of each other but it works for us, I think partly because I seem to have skipped a lot of stages in my life and grew up a lot quicker then many my age. Follow your heart chances are it won't steer you wrong and should it happen to you'll get one hell of a lesson out of it.

When I was young, such relationships were tactfully referred to as “May-December romances.” People snickered behind the backs of men they considered “old goats,” who had hot young wives.
Now, such affairs are the “in” thing, fueled by celebrity marriages between 28- and 58-year-old. But the reality is much more sobering.
I’m 53, the age when friends whose husbands are 20 years their senior are still vigorous while the men are falling apart. What seemed like a good idea when Hubby was an active 45 and you were 25 has become an albatross around your neck -- and will only get worse. Indeed, many men approaching old age specifically marry much-younger women for a built-in caretaker in their senescence.
Then there is the “trophy wife” concept: A hot 28-year-old makes you look good. Many women agree to this for the money; any man who doesn’t recognize this is delusional.
