Why do older women date younger men - Is age just a number? by sknvibes.com :: 2008-08-22
Meach, 22, said older women prefer younger men because they make them feel young. Older men come with ex-wives, kids and other baggage while younger men haven't such handicaps to a lovely and exciting relationship. Beulah, 42, says that most older women who date young men are in managerial positions or run their own businesses, so they make much more money than the young men; hence they are in charge and can tell the young men what to do while providing them with material goods. Keasher, mid 30s, revealed she would do whatever it takes to keep her young man as long as he can "service my engine and make me feel young again". [Age Difference in Relationship - Age gap]

It's not that I wouldn't date someone my age, it's just that they can be pretty needy". For needy, read "nightmarish". [Age Difference in Relationship - Age gap]

When men marry later, age gap is bigger by mercurynews :: 2008-05-14
From politicians to entertainers there's no shortfall of rich, successful men marrying younger women. The assets of fame, power and money, the belief goes, make up for the debits of time - gray hair, bellies and wrinkles. But new research claims that the "success" part may not have much to do with it. The older a man is when he marries after 40, the greater the likelihood that his bride will be a lot younger - whether that man is wealthy or not. "The poor guys marry down in age just as much as the rich guys do," said Paula England. [Age Difference in Relationship - Age gap]

7 singles speak out about dating someone significantly older or younger. by ChristianityToday :: 2005-10-22
I dated someone five years younger than myself, and it did not work. But I think that had more to do with the fact we were both in our 20s at the time. Most of us pre-26ish don't realize how little we know about ourselves and life in general, and maybe that's why I felt more like he wanted a mom than a girlfriend.
