Younger Man Older Woman Relationships.

[Azureth]

Is this considered taboo anymore? Say a 25 year old man and a 35 year old woman dating and having a relationship? I'm curious if anyone here has any experience dating older women and would like to share their thoughts.

I'm 22 but I've recently been more attracted to older women, mainly for their maturity. I'm really sick of how stupid/idiotic women my age are and want a mature and stable relationship. I don't care about partying or drinking or any of that stuff.

Not at all. It's becoming more and more acceptable in society. Of course, there are those who will still look down their noses, but that's going to happen with any kind of non-traditional relationship.

There are many of us older women who prefer to date younger men. Just realize that not all do and be careful how you approach. Even women who date younger men may be put off if they think you are only out to 'bag a Cougar.'

it's acceptable for younger women to marry an older man. many of us women choose older men, becuase of the matuirty and the finacial stablility.
i wish the same would be true for older woman and younger men.
i don't think that you should be too concerned what others think about you choosing a mate. her age and her lifestyle may be contributing factors that you look for. it's healthy for you to be confident in your choices.
too often, we look to other's for advice, and we only hear the negative aspects. if you are really seeking counsel, why not try to research healthy relationships with younger men and older woman. you could find a balance for the negative with the positive.
men do seek out a woman (if hetrosexual) for her mother like aspects. they want someone that can full-fill that role of their mother. they want to be tooken care of. it's normal, and it's healthy.
in my opinion, do what you think is right. your choice for your mate should be based upon what she can bring to better you. as well as choosing someone that will be better by having you in her life.
i would do what you feel is right. there is nothing wrong with a younger man being involved with an older woman.
good luck
