Anonymous Coward User ID: 71965941 United Kingdom 07/31/2021 12:48 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | People on GLP think as though a 20 year old woman is a pedo material for a single, established, healthy 40 year old. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80680788 100 years ago, it was somewhat normal for a 20 year age difference and a 20 year old woman was considered prime, not pedo material. I suppose the OP just has a type, but being realistic, the age gap is too large for it to go the distance. |

At least an established, healthy 40 year old man (not the OP obviously) will more likely treat a 20 year old woman with dignity, while having the means to provide and protect in this uncertain chaotic world than any Gen Z soy boy in his 20's. That is certain. |

A few months at best. Not all have to be pump-n-dumps or married for life. There is a wide variety of complicated shit to experience. 20-something women know one thing for certain though, and that is that 20-something boys are sometimes good at playing the fcukboi, but they have little use otherwise. |

That's why there's so many to choose from. Most young women are grossed out by the thought of having sex with a man more than double their age. This is not always the case. Many more today have "daddy" issues and are attracted to much older men. They don't always vocalize this fetish, but there are more today than in the recent past for obvious reasons. |

In fact, there is an article in "Psychology Today" indicating that it is common across 37 cultures and 6 continents. When It Comes To Dating, Do Age Differences Matter? It's relative. Hookups? NO |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 76654640 United States 07/31/2021 08:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sadly as a single woman at 47 this is sooooo common. I know so many single women my age and we all have ran into the same thing. Men want younger and younger and younger. Men our own age do not want to date us and men slightly older than us are happier being sugar daddies and helping girls pay tuition. This guy may be 40 going on 15 but I know 65 year olds sleeping with 20 year olds. Quoting: LolianaO Yeah, but would you date the OP? 38 year-old who didn't get a job until 32 and supposedly rejected every woman who showed interest in him ever? You complain men your age don't want women their age, but would you actually date a man like the OP? Mentally, I can see why he'd fall for a 20 year old. |

User ID: 63078896 United States 07/31/2021 08:15 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | When I was 40 , I had 20 year old girls asking me out. The thing was , that thanks to good genetics I have always looked 20 years younger than I actually am, so I looked like I was = their age. Used to Crack me up constantly. Once even had 2 teenage looking girls cat calling me. Funny stuff. Heck, when I was 40, I even had friends wanting to hook me up with their 19 year old daughter who had a 4 year old son. The funny thing was that she was actually all on board with the concept and was into me. The majority of the time with a young girl, its all about looks anyways. The above being said, aside from a physical relationship, it's not worth all the emotional drama of getting into a relationship with a young, dramatic, insecure, emotional, and financially challenged girl. IMHO, date in your own age range and avoid all the head aches. |

But I have a six figure job, look 15 years younger than I am, and am generally a great catch. She’s gorgeous and smart. Not being arrogant, just stating the situation. You need to be realistic about your market value…. And be prepared to be patient with a younger woman. You sound like your have a few issues and you sound very immature. Be honest. Do you want to be with her or just use her for sex. If it’s the latter do her a favor and leave her alone. |
