Older Guys / Younger Guys????

I always know for a fact that i won't date guys younger than me. I like guys who are about five to ten years older. I'm the eldest in the family and i never had an older brother. I'm drawn to the idea of dating someone older because that would give me the experience of being cared for by an older brother. It may sound weird to others but that's how it is to me.

I prefer older guys, definitely. Currently I'm seeing one who's 7 years older than I am, and it's the most fulfilling relationship I've had. The ones that are closer to my age don't seem to have the maturity that I need to have. I don't like fighting over stupid things, I like being able to pick my battles. (Though there haven't been any yet.) I love having someone who knows that if I say 'I need to talk to you' it isn't a cue to shut me out. I like having someone who isn't afraid to say that he needs to talk to me. When we have issues (not fights, just things we're worried about.) We tell one another. There's none of this avoiding the subject or ignoring the issue. We both know that it's not going to go away simply by ignoring it, and that's a wonderful breath of fresh air. (Usually I'm the only one that seems to realize that isn't how life works.) I can't get enough of having someone with goals and ambitions who can still be happy with where he is. I also adore the fact that he realized when he moved for his job that in order to make this relationship work it was going to require both of us, not just him, not just me. Younger guys or guys my age are too immature. They seem to be more hormonal than any of them would care to admit, and for some reason not many of them are too committed to relationships and making them work. They seem to be of the opinion 'Yeah, a girlfriend is nice to have...but I don't really want/need one.' I don't want something like that. I like mattering. No one wants to be unwanted.

ive never dated anybody younger than me. the largest age difference in a boyfriend ive had was 13 yrs (older). that relationship lasted the longest, almost 6 years. ive dated 2 guys within a year or two of my age and they just annoyed the crap outta me lol. personally...i like older men at least 8 to 10 years older.

Definitely older guys or guys around your age. I've learned from experience that guys tend to mature a little later than females... An immature boyfriend is a HEADACHE!!! So generally, I'd go for the older guy, not too much older... maybe 2-3 years.

My current boyfriend is 13 years older than I am, and things are going great. He's definitely the best boyfriend I've had to date, and neither of us plan on ending things anytime soon...I've never dated anyone younger than me, or even very close to my age....i don't handle stupidity and immaturity very well at all.
