Why do younger guys in their mid to late 20s message me. I will be 32 next month.

I do OLD and I get so many messages from guys in their mid to late 20s. Any idea why the younger men message me so much? I will be 32 next month.

Its the "cougar" affect.

 

Wen I was younger I fancied older women. I thought they`d teach me a thing or two and they did!

They see you as a easy mark and that being "32" you might be desperate and now that you in your 30's, your reaching your sexual peak and they want to climb that peak.

 

Some guys in their early 20's still have the mentality of a 15 year old and in this case, you can expect to here from a few more.

 

By the way, just for the record, 32 isn't old. Want to clear that up right away.

Maybe it is just me but 25 - 32 doesn't seem cougarish. 25 - 40 does. I think some men in that mid to late 20's age range just prefer older women. They're more mature and seemingly have their act together compared to women their own age. I know I did when I was 28.

 

I wouldn't stress about it. Below 25 and ya, you have a point.

<p><p>I dont judge people by Age , but IMO,young guys who hit mature lady is more likely to fulfill their sexual need, and it can be such a huge massive amount of turn on for them /the guys (my First gf is single parent who had ten years kid)</p> i am speaking generally . Off course not all them are like that, may be..</p>

Many guys on OLD start off only messaging the super-hot younger girls. After failing to get anywhere, they'll continue to drop their requirements further (either going for older girls, or more average looking ones) and further, figuring that they've got a better chance of getting a reply as you're likely to be getting fewer messages.

 

Eventually one of two things happens:

1) they find a level at which they are getting replies from girls they still find acceptably attractive, and stop there

2) they find they can only get replies from girls they have no interest in, and give up entirely on online dating

If you only want to date older men why don't you put that in your profile?

I have thought about doing that. I will put that in my profile. I date a younger guy once but he was to immature. Which is why I prefer older men.

[mightycpa]

Because your picture is HOT. Why else would young men contact anybody?

Then again, it is possible to put too much priority on age. There are many mature men in their 20's. Just as there are many immature ones who in their 30's or even 40's. I think that each person we come across should be looked at specifically. Perhaps things like ambition, intelligence, and personality may be more important factors to consider going forward. In the end, still have to do what works best for you.

There comes a point in your mid 20s where you get sick and tired of pretty young girls stringing you along because they know their booty is fine and they have every guy from their own age up to age 50 wanting to wine and dine them.

 

Girls in their 30s have been around the block and when they want to get laid they get laid, theres no beating around the bush anymore and they play less games.

 

Older guys are wary of you because at 32 they see you as on the hunt for the ring, white picket fence and children.

[LostOnes05]

Definitely agree with thekid36. I think there are many more important factors involved with finding a suitable partner than age. I'm 27 and I would date a 32 year old woman in a heartbeat. Life experience and the maturity to go with it are just a few factors I consider when getting to know someone. I know some really mature 21 yr olds, and I know some really immature 50 yr olds. Bottom line is everyone has their own preferences, but don't base future encounters with different people on a past experience...use the past as a guide to what behaviors you will and will not put up with, regardless of age.
