Lol, so after I posted a *****y comment on my online profile, a guy messaged me...and we've been chatting for a day now. At first joking about the guys who just wanted **** pics, then kinda getting to know each other. He's cute and I like him...but he's 8 years younger than me...I think there are no men my age anymore.

Hey SeeSaw,

It's good to make a connection with someone. Try not to let age get into the way too much, unless he comments on it. I don't know your age, but maybe you and he have similar goals in common for a relationship. Love is very hard to find! Sometimes younger men can indeed love women who are a bit older than them. It all depends on what they are looking for, and how well you match!

Wishing you well on this venture!
Thanks for this!

I agree, age is meaningless.

I seem to be more drawn to women who are older than me myself. The closest thing that I ever had to a real relationship with a woman was with one who was 8 years older than me. Even women that I become friends with typically are older than me. I guess I can't handle the immature drama that is common among younger girls.

Regardless, I wish you well with this!
Thanks for this!
