Age preference...

Just wondering if everyone had an age preference of the people they're attracted to. I tend to go for younger guys and can honestly say I've never been w/ an older man. I guess I'm just a cougar in training. haha What about everyone else?

    No pref, I've dated both younger and 10+ years older than me. Personality and "Mental Age" has more of an impact than true age.

    I'm not picky, though honestly they gotta be older than 20. And fellas gotta be taller than me.

    ^this...it really is more a preference for personality though. I like goofing and older guys are so serious...I'm just not attracted to guys around my age...never say never though.

Now if i am Honest not dated to much in lat 10 years but seems like they been late 20's into 30's. i would date a woman in her 40's since i am there just have not met the right one yet............... Age is a Number to many People get Caught up on.....

    Within five years of my age either way is ideal.

    Then allow me to reassure you - not all older gentlemen are that serious. I'm 42, and my GF regularly tells me I'm goofy, or that I'm acting like a 6 yr old or 16 year old. I love being goofy and I love being playful and making people laugh. I can be serious, and i'm good at it - but please don't think that older means too serious.

    I have dated 5.5 years younger than me up to 12 years older. I am not sure what I really prefer. It is more about maturity and compatibility. I have also dated from 5' 2" to 6'7". Being 5'4" both ends of the spectrum were definitely interesting. Guess age and height are not that big of factors for me.
