"This can also be explained by the fact that an older man is more established, so his vibe will be more mature, refined and sophisticated. For example, an older guy has a great house, really nice condo, admirable career going, and has money saved or invested. To most ladies, although older men don’t have the energy to be half as fun as their younger counterparts, it is really super attractive to hear a man talk about the latest stock market trades, as opposed to who won in a game of pool at the club. Older men are mature because they will not make inappropriate jokes that will cause a fight. Since they have more dating experience, they understand the basics of what makes a woman tick, such as need for communication, romance, as well as physical and emotional needs. Older men don’t force their partners to hang out with friends who only go down shot after shot, and displaying their unruly behaviour at the club.Better yet, they are mature enough to understand that a proper date is defined by quiet evenings and interesting conversations. Mature men are less governed by over-the-top emotions and childish behaviour, which is very attractive to young women because it means they will waste less time in petty squabbles about inconsequential things with their partner.

But hurt you less?
They hurt you because they come up with excuses why they can't marry you on the long Run. They eventually dump you. They can tag you along for years. They have history and responsibilities and will eventually choose but not you.
Yes they do have experience.
Experience doesn't mean they are mature.
Experience doesn't mean they won't hurt you.
Caring for you doesn't mean they will marry you.
Remember to marry is the focus and goal.
The truth about this is you can't get along with their friends.
They see you as an outsider.
You won't enjoy what they enjoy.
So they don't want to take you out with their friends.
They don't want you to embarass them.
That's why most times they go out with you alone.
You won't have things to contribute.
They see you as not smart for their intellectual conversations.
What are your values?
What do you want?
Why must a man buy gifts for you?
Wait for your own man and grow with him.
Rather buy what you can afford.
You will get there!!!
"Establish yourself first. Go to school. Work, be up to date with whats happening around your society or community. Other than arguing 24/7 about netflix series on who is dating who. Find sites or programmes that improves you intellectually. Get involved in debates on or off social media that are constructive than pulling other people down. Always find time to read, learn a new skill. Enroll in a college if you can afford and study. Join free online courses the list is endless. Establish yourself be it you are meeting a young or older guy."
