I still find myself bouncing between the 22-24 year and ~30 age brackets. I entertained a 23 year old a couple times the past couple months. It was a lot of fun, but I had to keep from smashing her unrealistic dreams in nearly every other conversation. Small town girl with a kid but no custody, serious daddy issues, a shit job, no money, no college, a pot smoking past that got her in trouble, living at home, and big dreams of building a log cabin on a big farm and traveling all over the country. :spock:

I regularly dodged the "what do you think" question like I was running with the bulls and had to look away every time she said, "oh, it's just money". I constantly felt like this....

Speaking of age gaps, why is it that so many women refuse to date men who are younger than they are? I don't tend to connect with many women my own age for basically the same reasons that ghak brought up (delusional, unrealistic, etc); I'm 24, and tend to be more attracted to women in their mid-to-upper twenties.

Some women are just picky, period. A lot of them won't date guys that are more than 4-5 years older than they are.

I'm not going to be interested in anybody who'd settle for a guy like me, I have absolutely nothing to offer a woman who has her shit together, and the idea that I could change in any meaningful way at this stage of my life is a fantasy that would end up killing any relationship now just the same as it did 10 years ago.

It's not always easy to acknowledge, but some of us just aren't wired right...

This sucks to read. You're one of my favorite posters I hope you find some motivation.

I'm also not interested in "playing" anyone.

Real relationships are based on trust, honesty and genuine attraction.

No, I'm just not completely jaded when it comes to women yet. Don't worry, only eight more years until I hit 40 and crushing depression.

Nah. Hang in there man. Be yourself and let it come to you...
