When a woman likes only younger men

Angie, a 33-year old mother of four, is dating a 21-year old man for about two years. "I have always been attracted to younger men. My current boyfriend is very compassionate, thoughtful, financially supportative, and he always goes the extra mile to prove that he is really into me. I guess I am in such denial. My girlfriend always puta it as I am too desperate. Is this really being desperate, if the man comes on to me. I have always asked him, Why doesn't he find someone his own age. His answer is always the same, "They are all full of games." I guess to sum it all up, I am very much scared that eventually, he may leave for someone his own age. Do you think, a woman of my age can really live life fully with a 21 year old man?" she asks.

Your girlfriend is so wrong. Sometimes things just happen and age ceases to be an issue. That is what happened to Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher and at least for now, they seem to have the perfect relationship.

I think what this young man sees in a mature woman like you is stability, maturity, and as someone with no time for BS. As you can imagine, many 21-year old women are more interested in casual relationships and that always creates a lot of drama - many men find that exhausting.

Based on dozens of emails I get each week from women like you, I see no reason why you guys couldn't have a great relationship, even marriage. Of course, he will not have the maturity of a 33-year old but that is where you come in. In that sense, you will complement each other, if you value his youth and he appreciates your wisdom.

I also don't buy the argument that when you are "old" he will leave you. Is there a guarantee that a man of your age won't leave you when you are "old?" No one has seen the future and we can't live our lives today based on what could go wrong in the future.

So in my opinion, enjoy the beautiful relationship and just don't pay attention to the age. Maybe it is a cliche, but the reality is that age is just a number.
