    Well, assuming the man isn't just filthy rich he probably acts mature, experienced, respectful and probably seems intelligent compared to the teen guys she's been dating. Experience brings confidence and women respond to that. I find it sad and perplexing that today's society applauds two men wanting to date but still finds it taboo for a heterosexual couple with a large age gap to date.

    I always liked older guys, I mean not 52 like 35

    It's not something I choosed that's what I'm into and I can't control it I really want to like guys in my age but I can't I always fell for 30-35 year old men and I repeat the same mistake the seem to like younger women only for sex and never take them seriously.

    I prefer older men, especially when I was younger. It's not only that the youth of today are gormless idiotic losers (not all, but most) but also its a bit of a turn on to date someone that's older for many reasons which I can not possibly divulge on an Internet site 😝 . Also it's a caring thing, women like to be looked after and for someone to protect them etc especially when they lacked that from their own lives . Hope your date went well?

    Oedipal complex- simply that or trying to survive.

    I'm guessing you're the man?

    Usually it has to do with family culture or money.

    Idk she might like you.

    But in my mind, it probably won't last.
