Why do I only like older women?

Question - (5 March 2010) 8 Answers - (Newest, 5 March 2010)
A male United States age 36-40, *mpty_Mirage writes:

Basically,what the title says. I'm 21,and seem to only be interested in older women.I don't know why this is.

I have found younger girls attractive,but they just don't "do it for me" like older women do.I dont know how to explain it. I have no idea why I am this way.

And no,I don't have an Oedipus complex or whatever.I have a mother,I don't need or want another one.

Thoughts? Opinions?

People, like what they like, there doesn't have to be a reason for it. As long as the older women you are going for are single and like you then there isn't a problem.

screaming match with you at the opera or in

the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course,

if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you

if they think they can get away with it.

Older women are more confident in themselves, their bodies, their thinking and they know where they are going in life.

No harm in dating an older woman!

This is a simple one. Older women are a lot more mature than younger women. They're more experienced in life and you won't have most of the childish tendencies that you would in most cases.

I'm the same as you. I'm even dating an older woman. For me, it's the difference in confidence. A lot of woman my age (22), are still defining themselves. My girlfriend already knows who she is and is happy for herself. Maybe it's just that you prefer a more confident, mature woman.

A female reader, Tigerlily United States +, writes (5 March 2010):

Older women have a lot of things that younger women don't. Confidence. Wisdom. An ease and comfort with themselves. They don't freak out over every little thing. They don't bring the drama unless the situation really warrant it. They are into their own lives. They know more. They know what they want. And what they don't want. They can carry on a conversation that goes deeper.

It has nothing to do with Oedipus. You are probably just attracted to all these types of things that time and age brings that younger girls haven't earned yet.
