It’s interesting that you made this talky blog today. I just came across an article on CNN…It’s about aging athletes still being at the top of their game. Science is definitely making guys look younger these days.
Age and experience are important components but MILEAGE is having the experience multiple times over a period of time, in many directions. When I was 18, I enjoyed 35 year olds; at 35, I had a great time; now, at 47, I am healthier than 18, more experienced than 35, and enjoying more of life than ever before.
Another attempt for a man to stay young and not grow up. Thats all we need some excuse to be called a boy. Reality check!! First of all what some guys on here say that an older guys is jaded, well you might be mixing that up with focus. At our age although we like to have fun, we have more responsibilities and possessions that we worked hard to get (as you will some day) like demanding jobs, self employed pursing our dream, own expensive cars, own home(s), etc. The only way to keep those things is to stay focused on life and the matter at hand that allows you to keep those things and that lifestyle. Any man in the mindset that he is in his teens, still partying and calling himself a boy(or boi in this cae) will not be anywhere close to making his mark in the world.
There is more than one formula for life.
Being a workoholic and trying to amass great wealth and power or being a perennial teenager are not the only options.
After leading a rather formal and demanding lifestyle, I decided that that wasn’t getting me where I truly wanted to be, so I rethought my goals in life. I still have many responsibilities, and do many things, but do not feel overwhelmed by any, and have loads of fun, all the time (without getting drunk, or partying at clubs all night). In my 30′s, having seen many things, and befriended many sorts of people from many different backgrounds, I am more confident, feel (and look) younger, and am in better shape than ever before.
Face it, Davey… at 26 you are dead meat! As for 35– these guys can’t get it up and are usually carrying baggage from some previous guys they have f****d.
Of course, we all really just try to go on our own views and experiences; we all have a slightly different take on age. In my case, I “grew up” in a family with no money. My father was an alcoholic and my mother worked 3 jobs most of the time just to keep our house. If mom was not working 3 jobs, she would always be working at least 2 jobs (even today at 79 years of age, my mother works 2 and sometimes 3 jobs; although, these days her jobs are all part-time)!
The impact that this had on me was simple; while all of my friends were “getting paid by their parents” for taking out the garbage, I had to take out the garbage, cut our one acre of grass lawn every week, clean my room, help my dad whenever he was fixing one of our old cars (which was every weekend), clean up after dinner and countless other things just so I could basically stay alive! If I didn’t do my “chores”, I was always fairly certain that my father would kill me! And no, I never got “paid”.
When it came time to be able to go out with my friends during summer break (around 9 years old) I never had money to go to McDonalds and any other thing that cost money. So at 11 years of age, I went to work!
I would work almost every night after school, every Saturday and Sunday and all summer long so I could have my own money to go out with friends! I also gave money to my mother to help with the bills.
So at 11 years old, I was “my” new 18; at 18 I was the new 21; at 21 I was the new 30; at 30 I was the new 45; and finally, at 45 I was the new 65! Yes, that means I retired last year from working the usual 40 to 85 hours a week that I can only seem to recall working since I graduated high school!
So here I sit at 45 years all alone. Who would I like to spend the rest of my life with? Someone younger than I that’s who! I’m not looking to become anyone’s sugar daddy! He most have goals in his life far beyond than “meeting someone older that is loaded”!
It’s been my experience that in general, guys that are around 25 to 30 years old are just beginning to “get it”! Their party days are getting behind them; the bar scene is getting old and they are ready to settle down and start doing things with that someone special! I continue to have a very busy life and there are still a lot of things that I want to see and do! A younger guy would be perfect for me for at least two reasons; one, they will help keep me from becoming “too” settled in; and two, they are still willing to go and see everything!
I don’t expect any guy that I date (no matter what age they are) to “keep up” with my spending habits. If I feel that I need to get away this weekend, I do it! I understand that many people can not do these things; they may be living pay check to pay check. So if that feeling hits me, then I’ll pay for his way too!
Okay; I think I’ve gotten carried away here! My point is that it is all in how you (each of us) looks at “it”!
I have always like people that are older than me and never really had a problem with it. i think that people in the 26 to 36 range are about the best for the same reasons Davey covered. being 21 I dont need anymore drama that comes along w/ being that young though if someone was closer to my age and had there s**t together as much as i do id probably consider them to be more attrative than others.
I’m 55 and I can pass for 35. I am just thankful
to say I have been there. Now I enjoy being alone with myself. I take friends out to diner.
Or I get invited out. which is cool. I am ready
to retire in Northern New Mexico or Southern Colorado in the Hills somewhere and travel,
Meditate. And be one with the world.
In ref to rickyt on 7-17 at 4:33 pm, you sound like a really nice guy that has his
s–t together. I am sensible, mature, 40s, stable, financially secure. We have lots in common. Write me seanmagic1964@yahoo.com
I am a 46 year old gay Australian man, and I think you are right 35 is the new 18. Trust me, I have had a relationship with an 18 and it was fun. Then I have had a relationship with a guy my age and it was terrible.
It really do hate the ageism that at times is equated with being gay
The gay community is filled with ageism. Younger guys need to grow up. Thanks Davey for shedding light on the fact that “older” (35-45) guys have it together… yes, not all do. But, for the most part, there is maturity and experience that can bring so much more to a relationship.
Thanks for the insight, and for bringing it to the attention of your buds here. You’re such a bright guy.
Younger dudes are fun to look at, but mostly “hot messes” with lots to discover. They’ll figure it all out. I’m a GL 48-year old, and enjoy checking the youngsters out, but if I had wanted children, I would have had some. ;o)
I have to say whilst I agree with this in general it would be wrong to exclude someone from consideration because of their age. I am 20 but I think that I have been through a lot of experiences and I feel a lot older. I have my stuff together and I’d rather settle down than be like the 18 year olds that you describe.
I am a student and I do have debts but all the same, I work a part-time job at the same time and am soon going to be promoted to manager so I am more than capable of supporting myself. I have to agree though, I would want some crazy 18 year old sponging from me.
I have also dated people older than myself and have found that even they can be quite immature and all over the place and not really knowing what they want and then 19 year olds that are very grounded and mature. I guess my message is just that 35 is not always the new 18 and that you shouldn’t rule someone out because of their age before you get to know them. You might be surprised…
Well i just wrote you a massive comment previously and it kind of had something to do with guys over 30!…
Well i still stick by with what i said…
BUT
i just turned 20 im may.. and ive been legal for 2 years (clubbing wise)
and no i ca see that you are right a 35 year old does have twice as many life experiences as an 18 year old, although an 18 year old, has a lot more freedom than what a 35 year old does, commitments, bills, car repayments life insurance, mortgage, those are all thing that 80% of 18 year old most probably dont have yet, so in saying that, it is more attractive to have someone who has their s**t together and who is grounded, but is it not easier having someone who is 18 (or 20) and not have to worry about the other Adult s**t in life????
I agree with you on all your points. I just turned 24, and while I feel like I’m heading “downhill”, deep down I know getting older is actually better. A lot of people I know that are in their 30′s tell me it feels like it’s the best time in their lives.
I’d much rather date a 35 year old than an 18 year old. MUCH less to deal with, and MUCH more to enjoy!
Ok so younger guys may not have their s**t together but it’s not all younger guys right ? There is that small percentage that do have theirs together!
But honestly I’m not I. That percentage…. I’m don’t have my s**t together because I choose not to. I’ve moved out of home a month ago and moved over 1000km away from my parents and I’m thinking about moving back because I HATE doing house hold chores! They are the worst! And I working sucks! It’s now a must not something for fun! That is the attitude of some one who is young and I am young but I know when to be responsible and when to be my age… So should we stick to our own age group ? Or should we just grow up and get our s**t together so we can date older guys?!?!?!?
Hi Sebastian, yes working sucks. after all my years of working, I now can say it sucks.
All I wish to do is meditation and dream of what life can be. I am just finding out that
Time is a mentation, it all mental. Everything is Now! So go home and start to love doing
your house hold chore. And start to learn about the real you. You are not your body.
There are many books out there that can help you to become your true self. And then you
will become the master of your life. Haha a Master of Life do not work for a living
Sebastian, you are so right, working sucks!
rickyt
I used to think the same thing about working out. It was something I wasn’t used to, that I was bad at, and I hated it. But I did it, and what initially was suffering is now sometihng I enjoy immensely.
Work is a part of life, and it’s natural not to want to do it. But we should not be led by that initial disdain, as through work we define our life and ourselves. There is great value behind the smallest of chores. Don’t think of the chore, but rather of what you accomplish with it.
I for one would tell you to stop being so spoiled and, even if you do move back to your parents’, pull your weight around the house and a little more. Find it in you to like the unlikeable chore, because it has to be done, and you (yes, you) have to do it. A spoonful of sugar does help the medicine go down. Hit the stereo with some upbeat music. Dance while you sweep. Imagine your appartment being the centerfold for a design magazine. But do it yourself.
Being successful in life requires endurance. Not merely suffering things we don’t like, but actually trying to like the things we don’t like but have to do.
I wanted to respond to Justin, the 18 yr old who wants to be a lawyer. Justin, you sound incredibly mature and focused, not typical for the average young man. It’s obvious to me you will not only meet your goals but excell as a lawyer. I would love to date somebody as sharp and driven as you are. Best of luck to you. seanmagic1964@yahoo.com
It’s funny to hear you talking about “35 is the new 18″. Is 44 the “new 27″ ? HA ! I remember being in my early 30′s and feeling pretty much like that was the best age to be. Then BOOM – I’m 44 ! It happens SO FAST !!! We’ll ALL die wrinkled, but only alone if that’s what you choose.
Cultivate good things in life and good things will come to you. Thanks for helping people see what the good things really are !
I just turned 35 and i just see myself as ‘Old enough to know better, but young enough not to care’. Yes when i was 18 i thought a 30yr old was passed it, however now i’m passed the panic point of turning 30 i still feel the same, do the same stuff (Podium dancing like nobody is watching). Yeah i’d love to be 18 again… aslong as i could have my 35 yr old brain and morals (I had the morals of an alley cat when i was 18).
I’m 26yrs old, and I’ve mainly dated guys my age or older..I think guys in their mid thirties are hot!…I’m not crazy about the 18-21yr olds b/c they don’t have their stuff together responsiblity wise and I’ve always been very mature for my age and taken care of myself and not dependent on my parents.
So, 35 might be the new 18, but I wouldn’t date a 35 year old unless I was 35. Right now, I would date a 25 year old just out of college. I come from a wealthy family so I’m used to paying for everything. You said in your video that 35 year olds have already been through everything. I would have wanted to be there with them when everything happened. All in all, I would not want to date a 35 year old yet, and they’re not the new 18. By the way, you so do not look 26. I thought you were 18 when I first saw you.
I would like you all to take a peek at my lenghty August 18 comment under the caption “To the generations before me: thank you”.
Read about my recent third coming out.
What more can I say? OK, that money never, ever played a role in my growing up or in my pick of friends or mates. We were poor together in poor times and rich together in rich times. And I mean: rich, but not always moneywise.
Now that I’ve turned 60, for the first time in my life I’m also being dated by men who are OLDER than me. I must say, I feel comfortable having all sorts of relationships with men in the age group 20-45 as well as with men in the age group 45-65.
And now that I’ve turned 60, I dare say that I certainly feel like the NEW 35 y/o, he he he.

I totally agree with Davey Wavey…i’m 17 and would much rather date an older guy than someone of my own age because:
They’ve gained lots of life experince and good handsome looks…not boys looks and there not immature or anything really…
But the question is…would a 35 date a young guy??????
and why not??

I just turned 35 and i just see myself as ‘Old enough to know better, but young enough not to care’. Yes when i was 18 i thought a 30yr old was passed it, however now i’m passed the panic point of turning 30 i still feel the same, do the same stuff (Podium dancing like nobody is watching). Yeah i’d love to be 18 again… aslong as i could have my 35 yr old brain and morals (I had the morals of an alley cat when i was 18).

I think 25 and 35 are most attractive…
I somehow don’t like the number 30, ha ha

Then I would say that 40 is the new 21.
Having turned 40 this year I’d have to say that the last 10 years were the best so far and am looking forward to the next 10 years being even better.

I’m 26yrs old, and I’ve mainly dated guys my age or older..I think guys in their mid thirties are hot!…I’m not crazy about the 18-21yr olds b/c they don’t have their stuff together responsiblity wise and I’ve always been very mature for my age and taken care of myself and not dependent on my parents.

That screws me over. I’m not even 18 yet. (or 17,16,15)

So, 35 might be the new 18, but I wouldn’t date a 35 year old unless I was 35. Right now, I would date a 25 year old just out of college. I come from a wealthy family so I’m used to paying for everything. You said in your video that 35 year olds have already been through everything. I would have wanted to be there with them when everything happened. All in all, I would not want to date a 35 year old yet, and they’re not the new 18. By the way, you so do not look 26. I thought you were 18 when I first saw you.

I would like you all to take a peek at my lenghty August 18 comment under the caption “To the generations before me: thank you”.
Read about my recent third coming out.
What more can I say? OK, that money never, ever played a role in my growing up or in my pick of friends or mates. We were poor together in poor times and rich together in rich times. And I mean: rich, but not always moneywise.
Now that I’ve turned 60, for the first time in my life I’m also being dated by men who are OLDER than me. I must say, I feel comfortable having all sorts of relationships with men in the age group 20-45 as well as with men in the age group 45-65.
And now that I’ve turned 60, I dare say that I certainly feel like the NEW 35 y/o, he he he.
Let’s hear what you have to add to that…!
