How to seduce an old man?

Samantha writes, "I am attracted to a man much older then me. He's very reserved and slightly reclusive. However, I would love to pursue him, but my twenty-something seduction tactics aren't working. What should I do?

Your problem is twofold. One is his being reserved and reclusive and that will make it harder for a woman even his age to break his shell.

Two, most older men assume that very young girls will never be interested in them. For instance, being in my 40s, I typically don't expect girls in their 20s to even pay attention to me, but I sure can figure out when a woman (regardless of her age) is really interested in me. At that point, I can ignore her if I do not think that I should be exploring a relationship with such a young woman. Or, if I think it is a nice thing to do, I will reciprocate.

In my opinion, it would be much safer for you to approach him non-romantically (e.g. could you work for him a few hours a week helping organize his papers?) and over time as you two spend some time together he might realize that you are not just an assistant. At that point, a romantic move will help. Yes, it is somewhat easy to seduce your boss.
