[quote=Anonymous]I don't feel any of those feelings. However, I've never seen myself dating older simply because we would be of different generations with basically zero in common. He wouldn't get my generation's cultural references and our interests would be vastly different. For example, when I was in college, one of my neighbors had a major crush on me. On paper, he was a great catch - in his early 40s, very successful, old money, never married, no kids. He wanted to settle down and get married ASAP and all I wanted to do is party, travel, and make $$$. His interests were so boring to me. Fast forward 20+ years later, I'm volunteering and spending a lot of time advocating the same issues that the old guy did 20 years ago and that made him so successful. I recently read his books that he gifted to me decades ago and they are actually good.  
If I were single today, I can't see myself dating someone 60+. I'm way way too active for an older guy; over 70% of the men between the ages of 60 and 79 have some sort of cardiovascular disease and 42% are obese, so it's practically impossible for me to date them.
