Would You Have A Relationship With An Older Man?

Evening,

I was going to write some time ago concerning the ? of would I date any one older than I , i some how think in my case would be rather and i was trying to think of a word or two to explain it would be total out of the ? why,

Well i,m 75 okay whats the point i dont see it working , let alone would i end up being a care giver for the next say 10 years, NO WAY. it ant going to happen i do care giving as it is just not 24 hours on call i have done it and trust me .

Full time i wont be tied down i need a life and i would be still dancing and with our Orchestra and Brass bands ,

Jos yes is female  and i have done our bringing up our children 3 off and we have 13 grandkids, The other detail is i can walk out the door and go do things travel when i need to , plus the thing is if Pam and i go dancing we decide and go stay a couple of nights and enjoy being out and away .

I thought about this a lot and comes down to a guy close to my age wont be interested or wont to hang around me any way as all my friends know i,ll be working in the work shop and yes,,,,,lol,ssss, can see him out there with me oh sure,,,, NOT,

To me guys have a one way tracked mind they wont some thing do they really wont to be with me oh what about a male dance partner, that has not happened in over 7 years of dancing i do dance with a few and thats it at the dance hall , and never been asked out and it wont happen so what i see and how things are i,ll just do those things i like doing by myself and i dont need a man around me and what for any way ,

And for those who dont know me i quess comes down to there was only one man in my life that mattered my GrandFather,
So in our family was Granddad grandmother and my Mom, any way,

...noeleena...

It's interesting to read along and see what everyone has put. Let me provide another angle to things. We are all Ok with general life but I find that sometime it's nice to put things in isolation. One of my approaches to things, that I use often and may have mentioned before, is to think of a desert island. If you were marooned with someone on the island how would you behave. Would things work? What would you like to happen? Even with someone you didn't currently think about (in this case an older man). It can really be a fantasy or nightmare, but I do find it helpful to abstract and isolate things, then translating back to reality. Maybe my mind just playing games

I loved the Robinson Crusoe series as a kid,

I also grinned at the stuntman, but didn't notice the cushion. But the wobbly rails....  and how about the terrible storm, but without any wind blowing? 

Oh yes, it was the music that used to drag us kids through from what we were up to.

....and of course Space Family Robinson, but only the b&w version. The modern one is just pants.

Though I could never understand why they didn't just kick Smith out in space. 

I understand the allure of a mature man.

I don't mind if he is 15 year older than I am.

You can't base chemistry on age.

There ARE young women who DO date an older man: and have a successful relationship. No one can say "I am deeply attracted to him, but I must steer clear because he's 20 years older." It doesn't work like that: no one can ignore attraction. And would not want to, either. At a distance you can say "No" but when you're deeply attracted to a man, you don't give a rats tail what his age is.

I've always thought that love was largely a choice. We choose to love them as much as we choose to let them into our beds. Sure, attraction plays a big part, but we still choose whether to become involved with them in the first place.

Look at all the dating apps. We can filter by location, age, body type, hair color, eye color, height, etc. One is making choices about whom they want to meet and base their decision largely on a profile photo meeting all the previously entered criteria, swiping left or right.

Peter Stringfellow?

I was thinking Andy Windsor. 

Oh nor did I...
Having a 16 year old girlfriend too much for him?
