What are some reasons why women my own age range are not attracted to me but more elderly ladies are?


I am guessing your going to say it's because I look older than my age? When I was 18 in college I didnt have as much trouble attracting girls my age.

Unfourtantly at this point there is 59 year old women who finds me attractive.

Maybe women your age are not impressed by anything you do or say; but older women know ho to deal with it.

Older women are usually wiser as well; and in their wisdom, they understand male thinking and can see through men's evasive lies, their guilty silences, and their ego-boosting exaggerations.  In this, they have also gained experience in cutting through the male bull to see the lonely little boys inside who just want some loving.

Are you still able to attract 18 year-old women :?: If so I would suggest going for them instead of a much older woman or trying to attract women your own age.

Fnord does have a very good point. Also elderly ladies are more likely to have their sh!t together in life instead of wanting a guy who can help provide for them. Elderly women tend to have less options for guys than younger women do. The majority of guys would prefer to date a younger woman than an older one. Plus women tend to live a little longer than guys do so there may be a higher ratio of elderly single women than elderly single men.

Maybe all the alcohol and drugs you seem to enjoy consuming have added years to your looks. Maybe a 59 year old woman with a face like a bag of spanners is the best you can get these days.

Mind how you go.

Just brainstorming ...

It might be that younger women are less confident about relationships (no matter how cocky them seem) and, thus, need more feedback and reassurance. Perhaps you don't generate that reassurance?

Or ... younger women appreciate a different type of feedback than older women do, and perhaps you act more old fashioned?

Or, as mentioned, alcohol and drugs can have a premature aging effect.

I don’t know about reversing it, but you can improve your skin by eating/acting healthy and applying a solid skin care regimen.

I had a mid aged woman take too much of an interest in me, when I said no, she tried lots of pressure tactics, but I put my foot down.

It's because old people find young people more good-looking.

What about women my own age though?

I am guessing women who are 30 don’t find me as attractive as older ladies do.
