Single Women & Their Irrational Fear Of Dating Older Men Who “Can’t Find Women Their Age”
“Women create all sorts of ridiculous scenarios in their minds about older men that automatically work against their goal of finding romance that’s loyal, committed, and loving.”
I found a clip of a podcast where a young lady explained why she is so adamant about why she doesn’t date older men. As a woman who has exclusively dated and befriended older men, plus regularly speaks to older men now that she’s happily single, I had to roll my eyes the entire time. Mainly because the reasons she gave were the same tired-ass assumptions women who have never given older men a chance have.
I am not sure who is telling all these ladies to believe the same things about older men, which will only confine these single women to a small dating pool where they can only meet and date men around their age as if these men are automatically better. But this is what she had to say:
“If a guy in his 40s, 50s is trying to talk to me I already know what’s going on. Women your age don’t fucking like you because something is wrong with you. And because the women in your age group don’t fuck with you, you have to go younger.
Because the younger girls would think, ‘Oh, he’s so cool. He got money. He’s so mature.’ But it’s all just manipulation.”
