Can older men really attract younger women?

She has A LOT of issues, so there's that, but I also think she's just not seeing beyond the here and now. I think in 5 years if they're still together she'll be shocked at how old he seems.

When Melania met Trump, she was 28 and he was 52. She was 35 and he was 59 when they got married. He is now old at 80 and they are still married. Their son is fine. What are you talking about?

He treated me extremely well. He was very respectul, and chill. We traveled, went to nice events and genuinely had fun. Yes, he bought me expensive gifts (jewelry, bags, etc.) that I kept after we broke up.

Beyond that, he actually made my life better. He encouraged me, helped me mature, introduced me to people, and even helped me network my way into an internship that mattered for my career.
I enjoyed his company, felt taken care of, and we did have genuine love for each other.

But you didn't date him for his money? This is one of the more extreme examples of a lack of self-awareness I've seen recently.

I didn’t know he was rich the night I met him, and he wasn’t flashy with his wealth, so I didn’t know about it until after we starsted dating. He was a good guy, I would’ve been attracted to him, whether he was wealthy or not.

Really? Because most women, even fifty-something women, find broke 53-year-old men to be un-f-able. And most women who are willing to date a man almost old enough to be their grandfather will have no issue admitting they're in it for the money, because otherwise, gross. Sounds like you're a troll.

Of course you didn’t know at first, but quickly realized it when he took you to a 5* restaurant and showed his place. 19 is crazy early to ho yourself out for bags and connections. Such a cheap commonly used explanation !

Maybe you would have done even better in life if you focused on your education instead. All these “connections” is just a noise and if you go into LTR with such type you’ll quickly realize it

I make well over seven figures now..doing perfectly fine.

Older men can women of all ages.
Data suggests that men who divorce are significantly more likely to remarry younger women compared to their first marriages. These studies show a rise in younger partners in second marriages.

Women also tend to choose older partners when remarrying.

Yes, He was phycially attractive and a very good person. I don’t know why it’s that hard to understand that some women do find older men attractive.

Whether its scrolling, video games or pron, their motivation to do anything other than seek cheep dopamine is very limited. Layer in vaping or weed and they can barely find the motivation to change out of their pajamas much less create a career with a liveable salary, commit to a relationship, want to support a family or even learn some interesting skill like music or foreign languages.

Older guys at least grew up in an analog era where you had hobbies that produced real interests and skills.

Maybe learn how to spell first. My 19yo son speaks 3 languages fluently. Yes, they learn differently but it doesn't mean young men have little to offer. A young mid 20s man making an early professional salary > early 40s man with 2 kids from a prior marriage making 500K salary.

Congrats on your son. I’m sure you’re aware he’s outstanding. That said, there’s only so many like him and women are competing for him (unless he’s under 6’ and stays earning a young professional salary too long). When they can’t find someone great like him one of the alternatives to fill the time are older guys. That way they can go on nice dates and have sex while they wait for guys like your son to reach an acceptable level of income.

A short guy is 100x better than an old guy! Gross.

I guess all these old men trying to date much younger women don’t understand it’s not just gross. It’s inherently predatory. Being a mom to 19 yo son, I know how much young men and women struggle with socialization, body image, finding their place in life. Know how trusting and naive they are. I would hate to see some old woman trying to insert herself in my sons life under a pretext of “temporary financial help”, or sexually perverting him.
Old men think that older women are somehow envious of them dating these young women. In reality I feel bad for these women who waste their time on some perv who is damaging her for life.

They know that, but they are takers.

Man, who’s even talking about dating college girls? I’m talking about late 20’s-mid 40’s.

Only broke women. Women who have enough of their own money generally avoid remarriage or marry someone younger and hotter.

Interesting. Why did you break up, if you felt you were getting so much out of the relationship?

And she doesn’t even need to sleep with him! She married well, indeed

Most women don’t have enough of their own money.

Untrue. In about 45% of US households wife makes as much or more than husband.

Married a much older man. No interest in ever marrying again after he passes (assuming he passes first). Most of my female friends, either divorced or discussing hypos, have no interest in ever marrying again. Those young women can have them.

He adored me so much and wanted to marry me but I was too young to settle. If I was a little older, and he a little younger, we’d probably have gotten married, plus he already had four kids who were in their mid-late 20s at the time.
