Rant: women

[Fat_Bulldog]

I met a girl that is 37, has her doctorate, is cute, easy as hell to get along with, basically the exact opposite of the girl 2468 started this thread about, etc etc etc. But...she's 37. I'm 28. That's a big difference.

Hit it if you can, you won't regret it. You don'y have to marry her, just [expletive] her.

Meh. Pull my man card or whatever, but I’m not going to do that.
She's not like that.

Okay, then fake a relationship and [expletive] her.

I don't think age is a long term issue. I'm currently dating someone who is six years older than me. Though keep in mind that if you end up in a serious long-term relationship some day you'll be a 50-year old man with an old and saggy 61 year old wife.

In all serousness, life is tough enough already with out adding the drama of this woman who is confusing you. Just talk to her, find out what she really wants. Don't try to play any games with her, cut to the chase, ask her if she is in to you or not.

This.

And just start taking off her pants and touching and what not.

I guess the biggest age related issue is kids. Even if she wants them, which she apparently does, how much time does she have left. We met NYE which in a normal relationship would mean like 2015 before having kids if they're planned. Some relationships it would mean 9 months later

Make sure you pull out in time.

Also agreed with Luke. There are a ton of women who will like you and enjoy sex and don't use it as power. As far as the age thing? Who cares? I'm 28, my gf is 32, and she's great. As far as understanding each others needs... if for the most pary you can't figure out what they're feeling and its been a few months, then you might just not be emotionally compatible at this time, in which case, get out.

Fixed.

I also agree with Luke.

Those women exist. They are in college. How young can you pull off? It's always awesome/depressing to see girls visibly surprised/disappointed when they find out I'm about 7 years older than they think I am.

I've been kinda having the opposite effect. Lately I've been having all sorts of luck nabbing girls in the 28-30 range and they freak out when they find out I'm 23. Maybe I'm just burnt out of dealing with the [expletive] that comes with college girls, or maybe the [expletive] is a SLU girl specific thing... but I'm liking that late 20's range a lot better.

I very much would rather date women over 25, but they appear to not actually exist in Iowa City. There are supposedly 10,000 grad students at the school, meaning ~5000 22-30 year old women, meaning at least a thousand 80th percentile lovely honies. Unfortunately, they are dating/married equally promising grad students, or too busy with their nose in a medical encyclopedia or bubbling beaker, and not interested in the out of shape bartender. The 21-23 year olds aren't as, um, discerning.

2468, assuming she legitimately wants to just be friends, and is only toying with you like this due to her inherent crazywomanhood, will you be able to live with her knowing that you'll never get a chance to butter her buns? It's criminal that women have the ability to completely shut off the sexual attraction switch, whereas we poor, bumbling men pretty much always would spring for a roll in the hay if given the opportunity.

Yes yes. "breakup sex", "i miss us" sex and "got turned down at the bar so I'm coming over to make myself feel attractive" sex are all encouraged.
