Question - (2 February 2009) 6 Answers - (Newest, 2 November 2010)
A male United States age 30-35, *ebermensch writes:

First of all, in order to understand wher I am coming from, it might prove beneficial to know a little about me. I am 18 years old, and in college. I study Computer Information Systems and Network, with a minor in German. German is my real passion, but for some reason can not be had as a major at my school. Linguistics and Etymology are a big interest of mine.

I love to read, I mainly read books on Philosophy (Big reader of Nietzsche), science, and history. I also like classical literature such as Sherlock Holmes.

I love rock music, but my taste in music is varied and ecclectic: I love classical music (Bach, Wagner).

I have always been relatively smart for my age, and I always seem to have more in common with people older than me. My friends are anywhere to 1 to 3 or 4 years older, or are mature for their age. Frankly, as far as girls go I can't stand girls my age as far as relationships go. I find that I find myself having more to talk about with girls that are 10 years or more older, but NOT old ladies. I mean more like young adult to very young middle aged (that look yonug). For one, I admire their maturity. Two, I feel like I can sit down and have a nice conversation about music or life with them. By music, I don't mean "OMG have you heard the new song on the radio". I mean more like, what is your favorite song and what does it mean to you, why do you prefer a certain artist, or how does (Insert piece of classical music here) make you feel.

Girls my own age typically are not like this. I've met very few. Granted, I have been interested in a girl pretty close to my age, just a few months younger, but she is very mature and smart for her age (theoretical physics is a hobby of hers). I LOVE brains in a woman. It's super sexy to me. I also admire the composure that older women have, they just seem much more rational about things. I love a woman with a little class.

Is it normal, particuarly for someone with my reasons, to be attracted to older girls? For any adult ladies reading out there, who would consider someone younger, how would you prefer a younger man tell you?

Dude, I can feel your pain. It's like I see myself in your text. I would write almost the same things as you did. It seems I only like older women, because as you say, these at my age are very imature.

I dream and dream and dream to find a mature girl at my age!

As an older woman I would say that after reading all you wrote I wouldn't really be interested. You sound very much like an 18 year old. I'm sure eventually you'll click with someone closer to your own age.

There's nothing wrong with being attracted to older women...you are simply looking on the inside and when you see depth and maturity it you like it. It so happens that the traits you like tend to be in older women. I wouldn't sweat it, don't worry about what others think and most women would be flattered a younger guy would be interested in them.

supermum agony auntI would say the reason that you are lusting after the older woman is that you are very mature for your age, and dare i say it, your tastes ar alternative to what i lot of people your age's tastes are. Your passion for reasons and deep thinking is more in line wirh how a mature lady mite present herself, and you have recognised this. there is absolutely nothing wrong with this at all, and i know several women whose partners are between 7 and 22 years younger than them, whome are very happy. good luck to you!
