There is nothing wrong with dating a younger woman. However, socially such pairings can still get a lot of disapproving looks and wagging tongues that spell “sugar daddy” and “gold digger”. Because of this, a recent rule of thumb has emerged; a guideline to avoid those heavy silences and embarrassed encounters whenever out and about with your date. The “half your age plus 7” rule states that men should only date women half their age plus seven.
If you have been entertaining the idea of dating younger women and you’re at a loss as to how to behave, here are some suggestions.
Younger women rarely meet a lot of men who treat them like a princess. When they do, they are often awed by the treatment and appreciate it when given. As someone who has seen and been through a lot, this feature will make you stand out from guys her age and make you look like the knight in shining armor she has always dreamed of.
Hey, it’s cool if you start channeling some of that vibe your girlfriend is giving out but you have to let the decisive macho image rule where men always hold it in and never panic in the face of danger. This kind of maturity is what separates men from the boys and women always find a decisive man attractive regardless of age.
Women find confident men very attractive. The decisiveness and the capability to lead is sadly lacking in many younger men who are still insecure and trying to get the approval of society. As a man who has reached the pinnacle of success and emotional maturity, you are no longer vulnerable to such fits of ego but you understand what it means to provide guidance and to act when the situation calls for it.
Younger women are by nature playful and light hearted. Unless she also happens to be your secretary, don’t turn into a serious bore by discussing yesterday’s news or the stock market. Try to learn as much as you can about their generation and try to fit a little. No need to get a tattoo, but being able to appreciate her kind of music can be a start.
Although getting into her pants may have been the foremost thought in your mind, don’t take advantage of her. Earn her trust. Making the move early on in the relationship may label you as someone who’s just into young flesh. Perverts aren’t very attractive and reputations have a way of preceding you despite your best efforts at being a hypocrite.
Younger women may not take kindly to being controlled or manipulated. For a time, it may have its appeal. Eventually, she may grow tired of your domineering ways. Moreover, giving her space will send the message that you’re not insecure and don’t mind her being herself. This kind of acceptance can be very endearing and you will find your girlfriend wanting to spend more time with you because you let her be. Quit being overbearing or you will remind her of some cranky relative and that may be the end of it all.
She may be the best thing that happened to you after chili peppers but sadly, nothing lasts forever. Your pretty coy sweetie may later turn out to be a domineering nag, gain a few pounds and may not even age gracefully. Furthermore, she may also discover herself and find that you were just a passing fancy. Ouch! Everything changes and in the blink of an eye, what was once very attractive may lose its appeal and become common.
