I totally relate to her. I am 45 and told that I look young for my age and get hit on by younger guys all the time. I don’t have a problem with that except I am looking for more than a booty call. The men my age, who you think would be at the same stage of life experience and worldliness are pursuing the 23 girl, in a sort of midlife crisis. If I could find a 23-year-old who has the worldly experience and wants to have a committed relationship, that’s great, but right now all the guys in the pool are either emotionally unavailable or looking for something younger, than their female contemporaries. Another generality, I’ve heard expressed by the 40 male population, is it’s because they want a girl who still looks after themselves. I want the same thing, but I find the guys in their late 30s and into their 40s often are not bringing the same to the table, themselves. Eventually, there has to be more substance to this dating game.
***** That black haired one is so freaking annoying. Holy shit, I get it kids can be cute, but a) it's freaking enough now and b) she was never cute in the first place...
Ellen likes them and likes to keep up with them, or they like coming to the show, and she has those people on her show. They aren't always popular though. As you can see from these comments, that's why we can't comment on the actual videos, it's pretty harsh - they are only kids.
I totally agree with Allison. I'm her age and I like guys my age as well. As Allison pointed out, most men our age likes younger women. Quite annoying when you're not interested in being a cougar and the guys hitting on you are younger.
Even though she may not be "drop dead gorgeous" in the..."conventional sense", when she was C J Cregg on West Wing, I had such a humongous crush on her because that combination of incredibly intelligent, incredibly feisty, and SO quick witted made her SO undeniably sexy-it was unreal!
I'd more or less written today off, then I saw this in my subscriptions :) Ellen having what should, under normal circumstances, have been a private chat with her friend, reminds me of that auntie everyone has who's all "so when are you going to find a nice young man?"
That is just so sad. What do those old guys think of themselves? I feel they should have a reality check and look for ladies who are appropriate for their age
Romancing/Dating 101: 1. LISTEN As a result you will find out that she is self aware of her age and wouldn't like being called a cougar, considers late 20s/early 30s to be inappropriately young and therefor your 23 yr old self wouldn't cut it and is looking for someone who has a well established relationship with the world aka get out of your parents house. The biggest reason to listen though, you won't make an ass of yourself on national television and in front of Allison and Ellen..
younger men have nothing to bring in terms of intelligence, being interesting or bringing depth in a relationship, they are now once in a phase of life that you already went through a long time ago and you should not also want to rehash this phase because of the adventure, the sex (but to be seen if that is good) etc..in the end, ending up with or choosing to be with younger men wil only let you down a lonely path, jounger men will eventually go for younger women to start a family and grow older with someone who understand them better because they are more on the same level..and you..?...you are at home with a broken heart, lost energy and dented ego, alone............ohhh wel with 30 cats :(
Actually younger men are sometimes into older women because they want someone mature. As the stereotype says "Men only date based on looks" wont be true if a younger man is with an older woman. Personally speaking, I would not date a woman more than 10 yrs older than me MAX like you said a person would rather live with someone who understands them better.
Julian L Neither should you generalize all younger men as being "less intelligent or not bringing depth to a relationship" as the poezen21 above me is suggesting. I suggest you read previous posts before replying to me again.
