[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve dated 20s and 40s (my age). They ALL watch the same stupid Netflix shows (doctors, lawyers, employee at one of the three letter agencies, teachers, nurses, it doesn’t matter).

Conversation about art, music, politics, books we read, movies, is otherwise very similar from my side regardless of the age.

At some point they always get bored and move on and then I meet someone else. Usually I’m somewhat of a secret from her friends but sometimes they really want me to meet them. The longest shelf life of any of these relationships for me has been five months.[/quote]

This response nailed it.  It probably isn’t going to be a long term relationship where you get married but that doesn’t mean you can’t connect, have great conversations and good times with someone.  Also, the boa constrictor known as “life” has strangled off most of the fun and imagination of older people.  Its nice to get a younger perspective.  The last thing I would say is not to underestimate young women.  I think someone said it above, talk about individuals, not generations.  This is accurate because you date a person, not a generation.[/quote]

The boa constrictor known as “life” is a great line, gonna use it![/quote]

Ha ha I agree! It’s so true too. I’m early 40s woman married with kids and people my age just don’t get excited about stuff anymore! They’ve just totally been beaten down by life. I always have a couple of side projects going on and my collaborators are always either people in their 20s, or academics. The only two categories of people with the energy and imagination![/quote]
