Things To Know Before You Start Dating Young Women

Are you considering dating young women? What are the things you should consider before going out with a woman who is younger than you? Are there advantages and disadvantages? Here are seven rules for dating young women.

1. Accept when dating younger women that she is from a different “generation” than you. Even if she is only ten years younger than you, her life experiences have been different. The music she listened to as a teenager, the television shows and movies she likes, and even her political world view have been shaped by different experiences. Her vocabulary may be slightly different (like, she says “like” a lot). The further apart in age you are, the more pronounced these differences will be.

2. Accept that she has fewer life experiences than you do. If she’s in her early 20s and you are in your 40s, she’s just beginning to experience adult life. She may want to go out partying while you want a night in or a sophisticated evening. While her electric personality may attract you at first, working out a compromise between her need to go out and your need to stay in will keep you in the relationship for the long haul.

3. Accept that, in part, your attractiveness to her is based on the idea that you have financial security. You may feel like you have no money because of debt, alimony, or child support obligations, but she will see that paycheck of yours as “big money” compared to her own entry level salary. She will expect you to provide nice things and experiences for her. Expect to pick up the check when dating younger women.

4. She will find your maturity and wisdom sexy. One of the things she likes about you is that you’re not an overgrown teenager. Don’t try to act like you are 20. There are plenty of 20 year old men that she could go out with. She chose you precisely because you’re not one of those guys.

5. You can’t be needy. While it is not good to be needy with a woman of any age, younger women are not likely to put up with your clinginess. She is going to be wary of why you are not already with a woman your own age, so she’ll be on guard for any sign that you might need her more than she needs you. When she texts or phones you, don’t feel that you have to respond right away. By putting her on a short leash, you will actually be able to keep her longer.

6. Don’t be insecure. Similar to the advice above, you shouldn’t feel that she has “graced” you with her presence. Sure, she’s hot. But, you have a lot of qualities that make you attractive too. That’s why she’s going out with you. Don’t be insecure about your relationship when dating young women. It just puts them off.

7. Be mature. She is attracted to a man who is a few years older than herself because she is looking for someone who is stable and more experienced. Don’t try to act her age. Be a man of your own age. Your maturity is a natural draw for her.

And, there you have it. A real man’s guide to dating young women.
