Hi Everybody,
Someone mentioned something I'd been wanting to ask in another thread I posted--I decided to start a new thread about this because I wanted to keep the trains of thought separate.
We often hear that some women date older men because they need a father figure... How true would any of you say this is for Christian women (since our first father relationship is to be with God)? Do you or anyone you know tend to look for older romantic companions (and it can be for either males or females) because of a lack of parental care in your life?
What are your thoughts? (As I've said before, I personally like guys within my own age range--I usually say five years either way... I could probably stretch it to ten, but it would, of course, depend on the person.)
The women I personally know who have gone for older dates have always told me the same thing (and it's not because they're looking for a father), it's because they say they're frustrated with men their own age and simply find older men to be more mature about life in general.
Take it away, everyone!
