What’s with the sudden popularity of older women dating younger men? Can we blame Stranger Things for teasing us with all the flirtation between Mrs. Wheelers and Bill? (I haven’t watched the whole season yet, no spoilers!)
It’s actually not a very trendy thing, although you do hear about it now more so than you used to in the 80s and 90s. It used to be a taboo back in the day…comments like “she’s old enough to be his mother!” and stuff like that. Thankfully, those social taboos have been mostly forgotten and people can now date whomever they want, as long as there is mutual attraction and at least some level of compatibility.
Perhaps the idea has crossed your mind, if you’re a mature woman over the age of 30. Is it a weird or kinky thing to be attracted to younger men? Of course not. It’s fairly natural to admire beauty in a handsome man’s body, eyes, face and charming personality.
For example, an article over at The Loop, suggests there some scientifically convincing reasons to start expanding your horizons and checking out younger guys. For instance:
- Mature women are happier and more committed in their “younger” relationships
- There’s a better chance of conceiving if you’re trying to get pregnant
- Older-younger relationships tend to last longer, statistically speaking
- Younger guys seem to last longer in bed and have more sexual energy in general
- Younger guys are more interested in having fun, dating, getting to know each other
- Younger guys tend to be more interested than their older counterparts
- And of course, duh, younger guys are attractive!
So rather than deny it, or treat your attraction as something too kinky, OWN IT! Enjoy it. And don’t be afraid to flirt with a younger, available bachelor just to see if you have anything in common.
On that subject, should you take a chance and join a dating website catering to mature women looking for younger men? It’s worth thinking about, especially if you are attracted to younger guys and are determined to find a good match.
After all, not every young guy you meet at the store or at a public event is bold enough to approach you. The main advantage of online dating is that you don’t have to be coy about your attractions or wait for something to happen. See a photo you like, interact with the person and see what happens. It’s easy. And it’s usually low-cost too.
That’s why we’re going to review 11 of the most popular dating sites that cater to the older-younger demographic. Let’s consider some of the pros and cons of each site.
There are a lot of single and married guys on Craigslist, sure. But in the words of one of my friends… “most of them are crazy, creepy and have serious issues”. It’s free but there’s no real filtering system or even a decent matching system besides keywords. You might find better luck with one of the options below…
With about 40 million people, Match is definitely popular and one of the top dating sites in the world. You get matches based on compatibility in appearance, gender, religion, location and so on. You can also search by keyword interest, education level, ethnicity and age group preferred. Match does eliminate much of the “searching” obligation since it gives you matches regularly to look through.
Elite has fewer members than Match but a higher concentration of members over 30 years old. It’s also a site that discourages NSA or FWB affairs and instead promotes love and commitment. There is even a personality assessment test you can take to get better matches.
One of the oldest dating sites in the business, but just be aware it caters to commitment-minded singles as well as those with religious and or moral principles. The site also sends you matches and chooses available singles that you’re more likely to get along with, based on research.
Our Time is ideal if you’re over the age of 50 since that’s their primary demographic. Not only can you search men your age, but you can also search for younger matches, since the site allows anyone to join.
Silver Singles is unique because it focuses on successful, college-educated singles, many of which are over the age of 30.
Cougar Life takes a less serious or “romantic” approach to dating and instead emphasizes fun and specifically matching “energetic younger men” to confident mature women. There are also some articles and virtual gifts to send each other so you can start a conversation.
Another “cougar site”, with an impressive five million members and a few useful features such as “chat with members online” and more interaction with the staff so that you can find a real match, rather than just searching for months on end.
Age Match is another long-running site and claims to be the most popular site for “age gap” relationships. Here older women can meet younger men, or older men can meet younger women.
The most popular local dating app for sure, but the problem is there’s no way to specify just younger guys when you search. The good news is Tinder is loaded with young guys looking for mature women, so whatever that’s worth.
A more traditional website in the same vein as Tinder, but also focusing on NSA and FWB relationships with easy age searching filters. While commitment is always an option, the site certainly doesn’t cater to long-term relationships or singles interested in one.
Don’t assume that just because one of these niche dating websites will find you a match, it’s going to find you a great relationship. No, those take time. Building a relationship based on honesty takes effort and commitment. Sex is easy to find, a date is easy to find. But real love takes work. An online dating app or website makes it easier to find a connection but the decision to go out and find what you’re looking for always comes back to you!
