Young vs Old.... What do you believe? The glorious fountain of youth through dating. Is it true? I believe you are only as old as you feel. If you can still hang, then more power to you. Got some male friends in their early 60;s that still hike and bike regularly. I hope to one of those people when I reach that level.

Moms Mabley said that the only thing an old man can do for her is bring her a message from a young one. At this moment I am in total agreement. Right now I am skewing younger. Men my age are starting to feel....I guess old. I have a young and energetic spirit and the younger guy thing seems to be working out. Yes, I know we're speaking in generalities...but it's not just health..it's also attitude.
My current dating experience seems...less complicated. Does the younger man have more self confidence? Less baggage? More energy? I don't know what it is but I'm having a ball whatever the circumstances.
The gamesmanship I was engaged in with men my age was a little tiring. Are they compensating? Do they have something to prove? Are they trying to recapture their youth? I don't know. But right now my dating life is far less complicated...and to be frank I've resisted this for a long time. But I draw the line at 10 years younger.
I can only speak from my experience but channeling Moms....the only thing old I want old is my money...lol.

Not all the men your age are feeling old. If a guy stays in moderate shape, exercises a few times a week and eats moderately right, he will be able to more than hang with you. Trust me, I know. I have a hard time getting younger women to even hang with me, sometimes sexually.
Most of the women I meet are always tired, not wanting to do anything after work. Damn, I work hard too. And most of these women are up to ten years younger than I am. Suck it up sometime. Take one for the team. Come on man.....
