[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You know I read the article expecting to scoff but in reading it, she may be an "old soul" and appreciates gallantry, good manners, and maybe has Daddy issues? Whose to say, but in reading it, it sounded like maybe just maybe there's more to it than $$[/quote]

Yes, I had the same reaction.  I would think it's very difficult these days for a polite young woman looking to date rather than hookup.  I think there's more to their relationship than it would appear based on ages alone. [/quote]

I agree. It also sounded like neither one of them is particularly socially mature. He sounds very uncertain, and she sounds very reserved. I think they were probably relieved to find each other.[/quote]

Oh please! It's not hard at all to find a guy  roughly 25 to 35 with those qualities if that's what you truly want. There is usually other reasons a woman can't find that if that's what she's looking for. The biggest thing is not wanting to have to wait for a partner to be established. The 35 and under guys might have all those qualities but they are still in early stages of career, likely still paying off loans, not at senior level yet. She wanted someone established with the money NOW, not in 10 years time, nothing wrong with that, but let's not pretend that the only way to find a  a polite gentleman is to date a senior citizen.[/quote]

This. Somehow my family and friends and I all managed, several of us on dating sites. This in the past 5 to 10 years. None of us were ever into hooking up.[/quote]

NP. Disagree. I'm 36 and have a relative 26, the difference in how men approach dating is astounding. The social web has made the sea of plenty of fish even bigger than before and unfortunately, a bit shallow. [/quote]

Well I'm 26 and I'm able to find lots of guys who are gentlemen as do my friends in the same age bracket, perhaps it's how and where your cousin is looking.[/quote]
