Tell me if this is true. From my talking to older men I think that it flatters them and makes them feel young and handsome. Am I right ? Corrrect me if Im wrong but I think it makes them feel happy and maybe even makes them have hope and inspiration to hold tighter to their youth and go on and think young ? Am I right when I say I have this mild power of influence to enchant them ? It seems so....they smile so sweetly and seem to get happier by the minute as I listen to them and show Im genuinely interested..It can be non sexual and a true blessing from God....read this scripture that follows

1 Kings 1:2-3
2 Wherefore his servants said unto him, Let there be sought for my lord the king a young virgin: and let her stand before the king, and let her cherish him, and let her lie in thy bosom, that my lord the king may get heat.
3 So they sought for a fair damsel throughout all the coasts of Israel, and found Abishag a Shunammite, and brought her to the king.

I think your assement is actually quite accurate. Well done.

I think we all appreciate genuine interest from others. I don't think age, appearance, gender or 'enchantment' are really key (tho' certainly there are some lecherous individuals for whom it counts). It's more a matter of making a positive contribution to the life of another that makes us feel special.
I don't think one needs a young lady to feel young. Indeed, I might say that if someone does need that, they're not living their life right. I haven't been 18 for many...uhm...decades. But in my heart I still feel young, that the world is new and full of surprises and mystery.
It's more our joy of living that keeps us young, and that we can have with or without young ladies.
Not to demean what you do. If you're not in harm's way, and you sincerely give of yourself, I see it as a positive contribution to their lives. And it appears they do too. :-)

I do not know how to really answer this.
People feel the same about themselves no matter how old they get. I was working in the health field and met a young woman.
She was actually attracted to me.
As she was a very beautiful woman I really did not believe this
I stayed away from her.
she found me three years later.
This is not a story about sexual things.
We have been married and have a beautiful daughter who just turned eight. For my suspicions I am ashamed, but I am satisfied through dna that this our daughter. She knows that she does not have to prove that she loves me, but she shows it anyway.
We never know what this life will bring. people are unpredictable.

Not a healthy, mentally balanced man. It just makes him feel older and a bit silly.
Oh sure, we aren't DEAD! We can LUST! and we do.
But I think what you assume is some sort of sexual attraction can also be the older guy thinking, 'her paying attention to me and my opinions means the younger generation isn't totally hopeless after all!' Try doing that to a few older women, I think you may be surprised at how close THEIR reaction is to the men's reactions.
The world is never so simple as some people would have you believe.

I'M SURE IT HAPPENS BUT THERE IS A SMALL POSSIBILITY OF OLDER MEN HAVING RESPECTFUL INTENTIONS ABOUT GETTING FRIENDLY WITH YOUNG GIRLS. THE ONLY THING OLDER MEN WANT FROM YOUNG GIRLS IS SEX. AND I KNOW MANY OF THEM GET IT IF THEY HAVE MORE THAN TWO NICKLES TO RUB TOGETHER. THERE'S NOTHING SPIRITUAL IN IT AT ALL... JUST PERVERSIONS. YOU HAVE TAKEN A BIBLE PASSAGE COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTEXT. REMEMBER, YOU'RE NOT LIVING IN THAT PERIOD OF TIME, EITHER. I WAS MARRIED TO WHAT I REGARD NOW AS AN OLDER PERV FOR 20 YEARS... WE WERE THE SAME AGE AND HAD DECENT MONEY AND I THOUGHT A HAPPY LIFE. HE ABANDONED ME AND OUR DAUGHTER FOR A GIRL BARELY OLDER THAN OUR OWN KID. MY DAUGHTER AND I ENDED UP IN ABJECT POVERTY. I KNOW WHAT I WAS LIKE AT AGE 20 AND I DIDN'T WANT SOME OLD GUY. YOU CAN CONNECT THE DOTS THERE... YOU CAN 'ENCHANT' THEM ALL YOU WANT, I'M SURE THEY'RE GONNA JUST 'LOVE' YOU.....

I'm 44 and I'm sure a younger woman would make me feel young. But it's not just sex that younger women are looking for. They seek that father figure with more experience in life who will pay attention to them where a younger guy is just interested in getting sex.

Sheeny has a point, self-deception may be a component.
I have a friend who's 44, but he only dates girls 17 to 23. He says girls older than that lose their sweet nature.
I think girls older than that have been taken advantage of enough to be more wary of 44 year old guys who want only one thing.
I think what my friend doesn't like is the wisdom that comes with age.

No, but they make them feel like they have a newer/better model car.
