I enjoy the personality of older women to younger women generally. My main concern would be that a woman that is a pure gem is usually wrapped up by that age, so I would be curious to hear the reasons as to why she is single. A lot of these women are great at reeling guys in, but eventually the man finds out why she is single at her age.
I'd just proceed with caution, there are pros and cons to messing with older women
You guys are right but sometimes its a pure numbers thing. For instance, a single.. attractive 33 year old in Iowa is a red flag. Because dudes out here will settle down with you at age 22. It's the culture.
The same woman in Atlanta or New York tho... There may not be anything wrong with her. She may just have standards and most of the guys aren't trying to settle down and there are a ton of young women to compete with. Also, she may have come off a long term relationship that didn't work out. I say this because, hell, I've created a couple of these women. I actually respect some chicks for not settling and lowering their standards.
But I think we all agree that you gotta proceed with caution and do your research. I just hate applying generic rules to people because I wouldn't want anyone to do the same with me. For instance, nowadays I'm hearing a lot of, "Stay away from black men, they don't want to settle down." out there. As a black man, even though I know it's true a lot of times I wouldn't want it held against me if I wanted to be serious with a girl.
Lastly, a young chick who is mature and knows what she wants is just as rare as an old chick who has nothing wrong with her. Two sides of the same coin in my opinion. The only thing for sure is that an older chick will need to have kids ASAP. She doesn't have the benefit of time.
