i don't plan on looking to get married until i'm at least 35, and you can bet it will be with someone who is around the 25-27 year old range. maybe even as young as 21.
I promise you at 35yo you will only have one use for a 21yo and its not marriage...

Im 27 and wouldnt even waste my time with someone 21 or younger. More than likely we are at different points in our life plus have different interest. I rather stick to someone my age or older.

Exactly. If they're single at that age its time to start wondering why nobody snatched them up yet.





I know a mid 40s brah who's dating a 23 year old. Everyone is jelly as fuark. Simple truth is when you look at his relationship dynamic and the relationship dynamic of his peers its easy to see who has it better right now. Sure, the guys with women their age may have had a good 20 year relationship. But this dude is with a chick that's still glowing. Respects him/ knows her place. Hasn't been jaded from years of a mediocre life/marriage. And is still optimistic as fuark about the future and is putting in effort to be fit/attractive/live up to his standards. She literally tries 2x as hard to please as the women in the older age group.




Furthermore his life-style is pretty amazing for a mid 40s guy with no kids/ no baggage. He doesn't hit bars/clubs/party but he has a nice house, vehicle, travels a lot, etc.

In my experience age doesn't matter much--each individual is different and i've met young ones with just as much baggage as 30yr olds. I'm just tired of women who, after settling into a relationship, essentially lose all motivation and turn into fat, lazy slobs. Happened 3 times to me, that shiit pisses me off so much. If you don't want me to mount you like a horny golden retriever destroying grandma's knitted throw pillow cause you're bloated then put down that spoon and quit going back for seconds during dinner for fukc's sake. Never again.

Both broke up with their long term boyfriends and are desperately trying to find Prince Charming before their SMV rapidly declines.

The upside is they're far more interesting to talk to than your average 18-22 year old who just drools for the D. Pulling an older women is far more rewarding in terms of satisfying my thrill for the chase because most are prudes.
Rep'd for humorous accuracy on the first part! Disagree with the last sentence though. I have found that younger girls are open to discussing anything and actually having new/fun experiences. Not to mention that most activities actually ARE new/fun for them and they aren't biased old hags who have constructed a series of specific expectations and likes/dislikes that they expect everyone to conform to.

A better question is... "Why do men marry AT ALL??"

I have dated up 3 years older and down a full decade younger (most recent ex was 18). I can tell you it's much more fun to have a highly sexually active partner that gets excited about everything then listen to older women whine and complain like they are post menopause (even though they haven't even started it). I hang out with crowds of all ages. I'm 28 so I'm smack dab in the middle of this conversation bracket and I am finding that I cannot stand most people over 26. It's not even a maturity issue. There is nothing "mature" about desperately looking for a man that will provide your old used up self with expensive dates and a free mortgage, constantly repeating ancient stories or workplace gossip, or constantly making the same ******** jokes about how you're such a wine-o and love your pet more than your own life. I get it, once a girl turns into a boring old woman she only drinks wine. Hahaha! Funny! New material please. I'm a single dad (full custody of my only child) and I cannot stand single mothers. It has absolutely nothing to do with them having kids and everything to do with the "mom" personality and the fact that their emotional baggage/problems far, far outweigh their *actual* baggage/problems (which would be NONE if they handled themselves properly and were as independent as they claim).

Older men are often not any better to hang out with either. Basically, everyone starts becoming the old annoying parent stereotype we all hated as kids. I highly doubt I will ever date anyone older than 25. I was engaged once, dodged that bullet. I never want to get married. Why lock yourself down to someone that will eventually rot away when you can jump around and forever smash that glow?

If you can't relate to this post you are either very lucky and found a special group of awesome people, or you simply don't get out much. RL people are ugly, annoying, boring, and suck. I wish it weren't so. That said, there are some smoking hot 30 year olds... just remember, that same girl would look 200x better 10 years younger.

Because the vast majority of men in their 30s can't attract women in their 20s. Unless you're talking about being like 33 and going for late 20s then sure... but lol @ thinking a 23 year old girl will pick a balding average guy who's 35 just cause he's well established over a guy her age who's much more attractive.
I do see girls in their 20s occasionally going for guys much older but 100% of the time they're cheating with dozens of guys (srs).

You make it seem like guys have options. They don't. Maybe 10% of guys do if you want to be lenient...

This. But you have to be equally attractive as her to even have a remote shot anyway.

No such thing as a quality single attractive female past 20-21. They're either a sloot or have major issues if they're single. And in the case that their bf cheats later on or dumps her, she'll have mental baggage and you as a single guy meeting her will never be able to make her feel the same. It's like giving codeine to a heroin addict if you break down the neuroscience behind it.

So a woman who's 30 wasn't ever a 20 year old sloot is what you're saying?

Yes you acquire wisdom if you're a big success which a small % of the population will be or is. Rarely have I talked to a 40 or 50 year old who has any clue about anything.

Bumping this thread. As a 22 yo, I don't understand how some guys can find women 30+ remotely attractive. You look at their faces, and it just oozes death and misery. They have that there turkey neck of peace and crows feet. How is this remotely attractive? I have to add that the signs of aging are more apparent on women of a "fairer" complexion (no racist).

Around that age too brah. I also don't know how some guys find women 30+ attractive. A few lbs of makeup. 30 filters for pics + instagram type collages to compensate. Worn down. Gravity winning the game against their tits. They are truly abominable.. and if they have kids on top of that?? FUKKIN LMAO.

Hard to find a young girl that knows what she wants. They are like little birdies, they come close to you and then they fly away when a guy shows them attention. Then move on to the next guy, rinse and repeat. Desperate for validation and acceptance I think (and that is generalizing obviously).

In my experience the older women are more mature, know what they want out of life and are more realistic. If you find that in a younger girl then you have hit the jackpot. I would prefer to have a genuine connection rather than just sex and physical attraction, that gets very empty and pointless after a while.

Marriage is a lot more than just attraction and sex. People tend to be more compatible with people their own age, and in the long run that's more important than her being able to make your dick diamond hard. There are side bitches for that.

Anyways, here are some reasons:
- He can't do better
- Compatibility
- She has her own money

Personally, if I ever get married I'd prefer someone much younger, but I've been in relationships with women my age and I can see the appeal (and the problems).

Because those women would most likely have a good career and something else to offer to that relationship than just sex. I'm not saying that you cant find a girl in her early 20s with a solid career.

People worry about looks too much.. Find someone that you find attractive. Someone that can help you in your life, has similar interests and hobbies, connects with you on a deeper level physically and mentally.

Well bro, I can't say for others but the way I feel about women depends on their personality and actions, whether they are young (like me) or in their 30's, whatever. Personality first, looks after with me, but we're all different. If a girl is caring, kind and open then holy ****, that is so much sexier than an 8/10 with the personality of a brick wall.

Because he doesn't know any better. Women are smarter than men (in the relationship department anyway); and a women your age will control you.

A man needs those extra years to give him the advantage in a traditions long term relationship. I learned this the hard way. But by the time I figured this out, I didn't care anymore. Take heed and learn from this.
