Im 35 and my husband is 42. I always preferred dating older guys. I came from Latin America where I struggled a lot to come out because of deep catholic influence. I feel that gay guys in US that are my age or younger had a much better path coming out and that makes a huge difference in my relationships. Older guys feel more related.

I’m 28 and here’s what my experience dating different age groups has been:
20s: Rarely in the same place as me when it comes to finances, career, goals, and maturity.
30s: Often not looking for a commitment and are trying to relive their 20s, or what they may have missed out on.
40s: Usually partnered. If single, too focused on their careers to date or going through a mid life crisis.
50s: The married ones are starting to get divorced and often looking to rebound with a hot 20 something. Or want to “take care” of someone. But once you sift through those guys you can actually find someone that’s mature and has enough experience to know what they’re looking for. Those men are gold.
Are you from India, my friend?
Idk. But people in their early to mid 20s are not worth the trouble
personally for me it’s bc everyone who is young is dumb as hell and if you want someone with a shred of maturity you need to date at least 10 years older (I’m 24)
Is it bad that my ears immediately perked up 😂 (24M)

I generally go for “older” guy because most guys my age don’t pay attention to me lol “daddies” also tend to be more mature and less problematic
I’m 27 and always date older, I tend to have more things in common with older guys
I was 24 when I met my husband who was 35. That was 9 years ago, we’ve been married for 6. I didn’t intentionally seek out an older guy on Grindr (he lied on his age) but I was more mature than most the guys my age and being with someone who was mid career was really good for me and my focus too. We were going the same places and that teamwork has been amazing. We now have a 2 year old kid.
Some people like their bananas with a little green and some like their bananas with a bite of brown. Taste them all and see which level of ‘ripe’ you like…
Wow. Riveting metaphor!
I’m 32 and my fiancé is 25, don’t let age be an issue, if you want someone your age be patient for what comes along but don’t be afraid to go younger

Exactly — different strokes! I’ve been out for a long time (much more than half my life at this point), was in the scene for a while, and am now mostly done with all that and ready to settle down. But (among other factors) it’s better for me, personally, to be with someone who’s also been through it rather than someone who never did and doesn’t intend to.

I’m 35, but I look 25….does that work better for you? 🤗
I’m DEAD 😭😂
I have a similar issue - 39 here except I look about 10 years younger so mostly get messaged by guys 10 years older.

A firm alum in his early 30s if you are into a ~10 year age difference 😉
