Why do I always attract much older men?

i don't mind to be honest but guys my own age don't seem as interested as guys that are 10 or more years older. i'm 17.

Update:

well i don't really make myself available , they just talk to me a lot at work and stuff

    Obvious answer is that guys that are in their 20s are much braver than guys that are still teenagers. At least in my case- I approach and date much more in my 20s than I did in high school.

    Plus I have a job and a lot more money- so dating and going out is actually an option. Plus- no homework to do.

    But you probably do look older. Many teen girls nowadays can pas for early 20s with the right clothing/makeup.

    Older men are attracted to younger women in a biological standpoint. Younger men are attracted to younger women. How young are you looking for? Your own age or younger? I'll go ahead and give my advice on both, I guess. It could be the places you hang out, the people you associate with, your workplace... think about the environments you exist in. Where you meet people is probably the biggest factor in who you meet. If you're looking for a guy your age, maybe a little older, go clubbing. No clubs in your area? Where do the twenty-somethings hang out? Go there, have a good time. Be fun, be interesting, be available. Looking for a younger guy? Look around a college campus. Easy pickings, depending on your tastes. All in all, just be available and be fun. Most guys like a fun girl.

    It could be due to your maturity level, older guys can pick up on that pretty easily. And some of them probably are perverts. They might also think your older than 17, so just mention that to them if it bothers you.

    Because older guys prefer younger girls. And older guys are more mature than 17 year old ones.

    you might just act older, I am 38 and I have much more of a laugh with younger people at work (m/f) than people my own age.

    People your own age might be intimidated by you where older guys like myself are less easily intimidated.

    Source(s): I prefer younger women but you may be just a bit to young LOL

    i'm 17 too and even if guys my age are interested. a lot of guys who approach me are like 19-25

    Okay to be totally honest why are you hanging out with men 10 years older than you anyway? if you want to get somebody your age then maybe you should hang out with people your age? maybe old men are more attracted to you because your more old man types!? urrggg i don't noo! i have confused my self :/

    It's because you are very good looking and intelligent and you don't shag on the first date and that you have money on your card and also it gives us a chance to meet your mum who is also very good looking.

    Are you taking me out tonight or am I taking you?
