  • Women who are far too young are sometimes casually attracted to me. Should I ignore them or tell them my age?

    Here's the background to this unusual question. Through some freaky genetics, I appear about 15 years younger (according to friends) than my actual age of 51 (not claiming handsome, just younger). Even stranger, I've recently started attracting some women who are far too young -- 18 to 25. Once they find out how old I am (I don't lie about it), they are always embarassed and quickly bail out. That's completely understandable, and if they didn't bail, I would, because that's just way too far apart (even Hollywood couldn't figure how to make it work in Lost In Translation).

    So, when one of these young women shows casual interest and waits for me to break the ice, should I:

    a) Act oblivious and pretend to ignore her until she leaves.

    b) Break the ice, complement her on what's hot about her, followed up by telling her my age and that she's too young for me, so we can all just move on.

    So ladies -- would you prefer to be ignored or given a quick dose of reality? Thanks!
