I'm a "mature chick" and have never been outstandingly pretty. A bit fuller-figured and not a "glossy girl". What I'm wondering is, from the male viewpoint, why do men (of all ages) still come on to me/ask me out? I'm friendly but not suggestive. Doesn't my age make men - especially younger guys - less interested? I'm not complaining! Just curious how men REALLY feel about older women.

BTW - I am NOT searching! I've been happy with the same man for a long time! I'm just interested in male opinions and why they're still interested in us (ladies over 35)! Maybe I just want the "reinforcement" of knowing what's good about maturing!

As a very much older guy (Sasquatch), you still have a lot to offer.
While I am attracted to gals your age, I tend to be attracted first to someone I can communicate with. I like gals with a smart, questioning mind!
Next is attractiveness! Weight does not matter a lot here, only that they be attractive or pretty, in their own way. A woman should care about her appearance. No, I am not being crude. A woman wants a man who cares about himself by my understanding, I want nothing less from her.
However, while I am attracted to a few ladies older than myself, it is rare. I tend to be attracted to ladies younger than myself. Common amongst Sasquatch, I am told.

No ma'am.. u know what they say, the older the berry, the sweeter the juice. =) I'm 24 and i've dated some women in the mid 30's and i love the "experience" that they've taught me. There's different dudes that like different types of women, in terms of ages.. U have the ones that like the older ones, and u have the ones that u see on Dateline NBC's "To Catch a Predator," where they like the young'ns.. me personally i like girls that are the same age as me or older. .

For one element, that's extra helpful to mary a guy it fairly is 5 to eight years older by using distinctive life circumstances. women human beings do many times outlive adult men. additionally women human beings mature at an formerly age than adult men. that could desire to be the reason you're attracted to older adult men because of the fact a great variety of adult men do not look to mature till the middle to late 20's. some adult men like youthful girls human beings, some like older women human beings. I certainly have dated the two. whilst i grow to be in my mid 20's I dated youthful girls human beings and had numerous question me out. whilst i grow to be in my 30's, I dated women human beings my age, youthful and older. Age isn't that substantial different than in the event that they're underage. which may be a criminal subject. for hundreds of years adult men have achieved the asking and that they are consistently uneasy approximately asking. I say choose for it. The worst which could take place is he will say no. yet, in case you do not ask what's going to you be lacking?

Some men like such girls because they view them to be more experienced. Others like such girls because, in their view, you are hopefully an easy lay. Not at all saying that you are, because I don't know. However, it is my understanding of this matter. See, maybe they think that some older girls are happy to have a "boy toy". So then, they offer you their youth, energy, and virility, while you offer them your feminine delights in return. For some men, it is a good deal, and if you seem to be open to this, then they will go for it.

As I alluded to before, younger guys (high school, some hang on a little longer) have a fantasy of "learning the ropes" from an older, more experienced woman. and contrary to popular belief most guys aren't completely shallow. besides, guys like big boobs. makes up for most other stuff.

More mature chicks can be real hot. The idea that they "know what they are doing" and are more comfortable with relations I think has a lot to do with it.

We don't know you so we can tell for sure why they find you attractive. Maybe they see more beauty than you do yourself; or maybe they find you cute or smart or funny or interesting, who knows!
Just enjoy it and find a good husband- material now that you can; don't wait too long, time flys very fast.
