Why do men in their 60's want a woman 20-30 yrs younger?

havasusweety	5/4/2009 7:06:14 PM They will never grow up when it comes to young girls. Makes them feel younger and they like to say look what I got. Not all men but a hell a lot of them.
flirty_me_1	5/4/2009 7:07:46 PM I just had some real honest thoughts on things I have learned about this type of relationship..yes sometimes it works but many times it does not. Some men are now back on the market looking again and sometimes they have a young child or two from the young wife that they no longer have. Will be interesting to see what the men think on this. I want a man close to my age..for many reasons. Definitely not more than 10 years difference.
arksr	5/4/2009 7:54:57 PM Not this guy, thirty years my junior now there is a suicide mission. Like to look but no way would I get into that kind of relationship.. but no I won't grow up either t o much fun to be had..
opticaljl	5/4/2009 8:20:44 PM As I am 67 and have an eleven year old daughter, I can state that her mother was not a trophy wife. When I married for the second time I indeed wanted children, Women my age had already gone through change of life, or just didn't wish the extra responsibilities of children. I would be happy to share my motivations and thoughts on this manner but not in a public forum. I do answer all e-mail and I'm not ashamed of any choices I have made reguarding parenting.
jennyann71	5/5/2009 6:28:39 AM Men will pay to have a Bimbo on his arm in order to prove to the world He still has it going on{Youth} and he pays dearly $$$$$
456johnny	5/5/2009 7:23:33 AM i dont know about most men but not me. you know the old saying you only go around once in life. well once a day is plenty for a guy in his 60,s (and thats plenty) but not for a women in her 20,s & 30,s. who are they kidding.
foreveralady	5/5/2009 7:36:01 AM I HAVE SEEN CASES LIKE THIS....and these men get left as soon as they get a bit older,because usually the younger gals want someone younger....after they get what they want from the older man......$$$$$$$$$$----please don't stone me--lol
waterlilly77200	5/5/2009 8:42:45 AM I too think they want someone to show off, and that it makes them feel younger. They probably can't cut the mustard any more, and are trying to fool thier friends into believing they can.
rtdllb6	5/5/2009 9:43:47 AM It funny. I was just chatting, about this last night. It has been my question, for quit sometime. If i go into someones Profile, and they have all 20 or 30 year olds,I don't even go there. Most OF the time,IF a young girl chases and older man, most of the time, it ends up badly, why don't they pick on someone their own age.
affectionate166	5/5/2009 10:13:28 AM Maybe they are trying to recapture their youth, but I would think it only shows how much of their youth they have lost. I would rather be in a comfortable relationship with someone my own age...if you want to feel younger, spending time with kids and grandkids will do that for you.
flirty_me_1	5/5/2009 10:36:28 AM I feel the need to say here that most of the men I have encountered in my age group. Late 50s to 70s want women mostly their age. Most are willing to have a woman a few years older than they are. I have email from many men in their late 50s some that I consider too young, but they are not looking for a 20 year younger than they are. We are talking about a very small percentage of men here. Possible as many women now with younger men.
jennyann71	5/5/2009 10:46:19 AM I married a man 10 years younger than me and I was really younger than he was, In looks and mind, and every way..However when a man has money he will pay for the youth {the young beautiful woman} to parade around the world, But tell her to keep her mouth shut in public ,,I do have a wicked sense of humor, smiles {jargon from her is so o o bad}
newlady2	5/5/2009 12:10:01 PM My late husband was 18 years older than me--- but didnt look it until his health failed. Some may look at my years and think I am old.. Thats a big mistake.As I have said - my heart is young therefor I am young..
pretty_moonpa	5/5/2009 1:11:09 PM I dont think the average 60+ man wants a woman 20 or 30 years younger any more than a woman wants a man that much younger. They would probably spend more time with your kids than they do with you. That is once the hot sex wears off. Like about a month into the relationship Can you see them now deciding on romatic music. You say Frank Sinatra they say Frank WHO????? I think and act younger than my age but, I want someone from my generation that can relate to me when I speak. They just have to also be young at heart.
marty7441	5/5/2009 1:20:44 PM Mem in there 60+ are dreaming about a relationship with a woman 20-30? Than there is the Father image for the Young woman? No connection in Logical connection!
ourguy131	5/5/2009 2:52:36 PM Ladies !!! Talking about double standards !one of the ladies posted here will have a man in her age range, the other are willing to accept younger as to older... Myself I prefer a mature woman.. Don't need to raise anymore children...
flirty_me_1	5/5/2009 3:34:52 PM I have a Man friend, he is my age. He left his long term wife for a young one..He has grand children older than his three children he now has to raise and his young wife left him and the kids for a younger man. Yes I have to say I laughed when he told me ..although I tried not too..He said, well you know..I can't ever retire..three more for college. Would like a woman his age now..well good luck on that to him. Not me.
lefty247	5/5/2009 3:46:23 PM SOME men, just like SOME women (cougars) prefer a younger woman for a variety of reasons. I object to the stereotyping that indicts all 60+ men as being guilty of selection of younger women. Considering the practice applies to both men & women, I'm left wondering is this a personal matter? What does your definition of "growing up" have to do with anything? Men & women are free to choose whomever they feel will have them. I don't see you bashing the women who agree to partner up with the old geezers. Seems a little one sided to me.
map12	5/5/2009 5:38:54 PM I think that they get scared and want to feel like they still can be loved and needed.For my self I date older men because they have lived and will take their time knowing you,anyway the goods will.
rangerguy3	5/5/2009 6:13:17 PM I have had it both ways my first was quite a bit older the second very much younger. At this stage of my life I would like the companionship of a woman very close to my age 2 or 3 yrs either way. I find it is easier to relate to a person that has grow up in the same era who understands what it was like before TV, does not have a blank stare when you mention something that happened in the 40,s. I think that the guys chasing the real young ones are in their 40, or fifties andare able to afford the red sportscar and the young blond. Been there done that and am now living in a trailer to prove it.

peeko	5/6/2009 2:55:54 AM Thanks for all the posts to my comment. There seems to be a mixture of answers. I do know women also play this game of wanting younger men. I had a much younger man interested in me for quite several months, (in real life, not on here)my son was older than him. It was a relationship I continually discouraged. I was done raising my kids and really didn't care to raise someone elses. Personally, I would like someone of my generation.

jasie52	5/6/2009 3:46:38 AM I have dated several men in their 60's and sometimes they scare meI have usually found men in their 60's wanting to "settle" down quickly. They are ready to place a ring on the finger. I am not quite sure why such the hurry? My thinking maybe they finally realize they know life can be short, they are retired, more freedom and do not want to spend the rest of their life alone. Life is too short
extexan	5/6/2009 5:03:47 AM I can't speak for all men, only for myself....I relate better to younger women....10 years younger is a good fit for me, but I have been in relationships with women 15 years younger....Age is just a number....It depends on the two people involved and the level of maturity....JMHO
luckylouie42	5/6/2009 3:09:50 PM The way I look at it, If he gets what he wants, and she gets what she wants. who cares. go for it
grams67	5/6/2009 4:35:25 PM Older women make lovers. They are honest, upfront, and most willing to do anything to make her man feel good. It is not all sex, nice hugs and kisses and being together. Holding hands when taking a walk, bring her flower and ect. There are some real nice looking older & younger women around if that is what your looking for , but remember you can't judge a book my its cover look through the pages. It is whats in your heart.. Yes to the fellow that say age is only numbers but they do add up at the end. I'm looking for that soul mate and friend and lover. Good luck to all.
scotchrocks	5/6/2009 5:20:08 PM The only ones who need junior partners are the ones who can't have a conversation with some one who knows when their full of it. You can't buy quality only the appearance.
luckylouie42	5/6/2009 5:53:49 PM well I think talking is overated LOL
eyebolt	5/7/2009 1:36:13 PM I believe that woman of your own age there are so many things that would be incommin that it would make for a very good relationship but that is just my way of thinking and how I feel
blueyesnsc	5/7/2009 6:17:20 PM Doesnt matter who is younger or who is older,, If they are both happy in it,, then,, more the merrier,, AND THAT INCLUDES THE WOMANS POINT OF VIEW ALSO
