Hmm, I don't know, I guess I
don't see it as a physical thing. The physical aspect is a PART of why I think dating a much older man would be
kind of weird, but it's not the be all end all. Like, I wouldn't consider physical attractiveness to be THE
reason I find a guy who could be my grandfather undateable. Physical attractiveness is always a factor, but if t
here is chemistry there then there's chemistry, no matter the age.
The way I look at it, it's about where you
are in life. I mean, how old is pierce brosnan? Hotter than most guys my age, that's for sure. But he's still
over 50, and there are still the problems that arise from such an age difference. Which is not to say I wouldn't
shag pierce brosnan, I mean every girl's got to make an exception for bond, but this is just to illustrate that
it's not the physical attractiveness that's the main issue here. A guy at 50 is looking for vastly different
things, from a relationship, from other people, and from life in general. The gulf between a 25-30 woman, who is
probably already working out in the real world, worrying about a rent a utility bill and the groceries, and a man in
his 50s, is most definitely significantly smaller than the gulf between an 18-25 year old, most likely in school or
just recently out of it, looking for freedom, experimentation, and excitement, and the same man, or even a 40 year
old. I don't think the younger women are less mature, or just not sexually come into themselves yet, but rather
just looking for such different things.
Maybe I could see myself dating a 50 year old when I'm 30. Who knows,
I don't think so, but it's within the realm of possibility. But I just REALLY can't see myself dating even a 40
year old now, or within the next 5 years, if that makes any sense.
