Dating : Much more attracted to younger women and feeling uncomfortable about it.


I’m 33m (very well off physically, financially, etc) and recently got out of a +10yr relationship. When I was younger I always enjoyed dating women my own age or even a few years older because I appreciated their maturity. But now that I’m seriously looking again I’ve found there’s a severe drop off of my attraction to woman who are past their mid-20’s.

I’m not looking to settle down or start a family but I feel very shallow, far too picky, and I don’t know how not to feel this way.

Besides that, are many women in their early 20’s even looking for guys in their 30’s? I keep my app search parameters pretty narrow but it feels like a waste of time either way.

Does this change as men age? I get that this could be thought of as a man’s genetic disposition, something like women’s desire for motherhood, but I’m starting to feel like Leo DeCaprio over here.

  1. I’m turning 35 in September and my GF turned 22 back in January. I also dated a woman who was 52 last year for a few months. Age doesn’t matter. Chemistry and maturity matters more. My GF is a wonderful loving person who GOOFS OFF with me EVERYDAY. That’s what I didn’t know I wanted in a partner even though I’m naturally a kid at heart. Date whoever you want, but know your boundaries. 🙂 Ohh and DGAF whatever people think.

  2. Don’t feel awkward and don’t be ashamed of what you are attracted too.

    At 32 I find myself dating women between 25 and 35 as a matter of personal preference but typically find myself running into or mostly attracted to women from 21 to 26.

    There are plenty of women into dating older men. 30 anything is a great age for men and I highly suggest you embrace and enjoy it

    Again, nothing wrong with liking women 10yrs younger than you.

  3. I wouldn’t have dated a 33 year old in my 20’s. Now I’m 34 and I like around 40. Dudes that age are hottest to me. We all get to like what we like as long as we examine our reality and make sure we aren’t being psychologically harmful to anyone. My first thought would be you might have stunted your mental emotions and that might be the mental attraction to younger women. Physically I can look at men in their 20’s and know they’re attractive but beyond that I don’t feel anything for them. I need someone who’s on my same level and in the same place in life.

  4. I’m turning 29 this year my gf turns 23.

    Always liked dating girls in the 20-22 age range. Everyone I’ve dated in my 20s has been 21 when we started lol. Go for it my dude, if you are a decent dude and treat them right it doesn’t matter what others think. They are just jealous. My gf says guys her age are boring and just want to fuck, play video games and eat takeout.

    I take her to museums, cook homemade meals, and camping/outdoors. We grow plants together.

    While it’s true that predators often prey on younger women (naivete) not all dudes are predators.

    Women my age are boring and demanding and want to settle down, plus younger women are just much more attractive. Around 27-30 most women start to age pretty quick especially the party girl types who cashed in their looks for a youth of drugs, booze, and hooking up. No shame brotha, I love early 20s women.

  5. It’s fine tbh. I just got out of a relationship with a 22 year old and I really don’t want find myself interested in anyone older than like 24-25. I’m 29 for reference. Most women just age poorly and the younger ones are much, much more attractive.

  6. Women reach peak sexual attractiveness in their early 20s. It would be weird not to be attracted to women of that age as someone in their 30s tbh. Also yes, many younger women will date men in their 30s as well and *will often skip over men their own age to do so*, important lesson right there. If you’ve used your years well, you will be at your peak attractiveness and will be able to date women who are at their peak as well.
