I'm planning on staying single for a while but I'm entertaining the thought of being with an older guy (no, not the ex's father) but just an older bloke in general. Any experiences of being with an older man? What are the pros and cons? Thanks

I think you need to define your age and what you mean by older (4,5,6 10 20 years?)

I'm 17. Older as in over 30.
Older guys can also be plebs as well..

blimey!
OK. The biggest disadvantage is what you would have in common - Musical tastes, current affairs etc. If the relationship did last you have to remember that when he's 50 you will only be around 35. It all depends on the maturity of the person in question also. There are some very immature 30 somethings and some who are old before their time.
Cons - he might need Viagra, wear false teeth, weak and nimble.

Pro - he might / could be a sugar daddy.

Of course all this could be the opposite, just a run-away imagination speaking here. :-)

lol at some of your answers.
The thing is, I did start to fall for the complete wrong man who was in his early 40s. We got on so well and liked the same music. I just feel like I'm not interested in guy's my own age and am always looking at/wondering what it'd be like to be with someone older. Don't think I'd be interested in dating anyone over 50 as that'd be quite wrong.
i've gone out with older and younger guys, i;d guess older guys are a bit more mature and but can be stuck in their ways and if they're bad in bed then you got no chance
I always went out with older blokes but as I've got older the age gap got smaller and now I have settled with a bloke a year younger than me.

thanks mcfluff. I've always heard that older guys are better in bed (well I hope they are anyway)!
Easy.....a younger man is just interested in sex............an older man is interested in you as a person and treats you as such...................and then he sh@gs you.
Dolly, they do know what to do, :-)
No no no. What you heard is that we stay longer in bed.


Or is that the same thing?
:-) @ ZM
Squad, I would say quite the reverse is true!!
older guys can be better in bed what i'm saying is if you get a bad one, then is hard to change them for the better, if you get my drift
lofty.....is your comment on the basis of personal experience?
LOttie, don't forget 4Grt.
