[@pychow13]

As someone in my late 40s and have dated mostly younger guys with age gap between 10 - 15, i've also been at the receiving end of many unsolicited nasty comments from close friends. Been called a paedophile, nanny, sugar mummy, desperate etc. Some even suggested that the younger men were interested only coz they were looking for short term fun, and could get laid without risk of unwanted pregnancy. These comments used to hurt, a lot, esp coming from close friends. I've learned since to keep my private life, absolutely private.

This is my first time listening to your postcast and I've enjoyed it. My husband is 13 years older than me. I actually hid my relationship from my family for 6 years and we've been together 24+ years now. I was so young when we met and I wear the pants in our relationship ☺️ Kaykay & Brandon are so cute together!

[@MexicansTakingOver]

you wear the pants? thats funny

[@Snappypantsdance]

Ohh, you might want to rethink that wearing the pants thing. I think that causes a lot of issues for men and even affairs, because they more naturally want to be in control..

[@JuzNicky]

I have dated older and more successful ladies. but I also understand him, it feels so bad that I can't do all those things, but is that just social norms on conforms on genderism bias ? Even then the ladies just picked up the tabs, as the waiter just approached me to again the gender bias. Clearly, this isn't a rich or poor issue more than a gender issue as to what most podcast over the world are skewing towards. I prefer the to each their own bank accounts and contribute where they feel like its best to help each other grow ideal. Its tiring to put social norms to everything, I`ll be the house husband, and i`ll tell my kids OF paid for your diapers. So be it. Or go " This Iphone14 is so expensive, now mom has to sell 200 pictures and videos on OF to get this for your birthday present. " just to combine the all the recent topics covered so far.

[@esmechin2696]

Ive been dating younger guys since my divorce and there are so many men out there that likes older women especially the under 45 guys as times have changed. However, I still find myself having to defend my preference for younger men with all my friends. They always have this incredulous look when I mention I am dating a younger guy.

I feel that deep down she might be very sensitive or insecure about him. Caz now that he is also successful and still very young. And that he cares a lot about her. But men will come to a point and get tired if their partner are so sensitive.

Why does she keep interrupting him and answering his questions?

[@musico3415]

Since women generally live longer than men, it is good for women to marry slightly younger men so both would die at about the same period.

[@bre6651]

[@Fupdernom]

For real though

[@trinityp8575]

That is so generalised. No one knows when someone will die… you can’t plan these things… or look for someone younger cause he is going to die around your age… he may die much earlier or you much sooner… we can’t predict death.

[@Fupdernom]

@@trinityp8575 it's understandable to generalize as in almost all populations around the world, women live 6 to 10 years longer than men

[@madsammadsam2899]

Yes why not. Age difference it's not the problem actually It's about How you felt about him .

[@Banayaga]

Even if it was movie once a month, I would go for the cheaper one. So i understand him more. 😂 Different standards of living. As a woman, i wouldn't want my man to pay for everything either. To change my lifestyle to fit in your higher bracket is damn scary to know that if I get accustomed to it then that would also mean I may become reliant on your money. That's scary leh. What if one day I can't protect you and you made a foolish decision on money that I can never fanthom even having. 😂😂😂 I don't think its a gender issue... 🙄 How a poorer person uses money goes through more channels of thought. It is damn stressful to see how you casually spend $40 on something I wont care about while I try to save every bit I have to get something useful for myself.

[@odechan9659]

Would love to see more of them :) while I would also want Bran to answer more questions/elaborate, my husband is like Bran and this KZbin interview may be slow and boring if we waited for him to look at partner, think and answer/elaborate… so I can see why Kay Kay interjects a lot. However, my family and friends also like listening to him so I’ve learned to take many steps back, lose the control and be okay with momentary silences while he takes his time to reply. Usually he will reply and not need my help, only occasionally :) it’ll just be slightly slower paced lor, and he won’t elaborate too much unless probed further by host

[@David-ve8pk]

I know this Post is from a year ago but if I knew now what I didn't know then, and understood the complications of being younger than my wife. I would have not made the decision to get involved in the long term. I haven't had any intimacy on over 3 years. She asked me the other day if she should be concerned about me being involved with another woman. Repeatedly being shut off and berated by the way I do things and not seeing any interest in intimacy like she used to be, turned me off in so many ways. After many years of therapy, it has been a very mundane relationship. Excitement comes from outside the relationship. Married almost 30 years. I wish you all the best.

[@hannahjoygemalaya3470]

I really love Sonia🥰 Watching Men Explain really helped me a lot especially in weighing different opinions and eventually forming my own💞

[@michalphang]

There's one element that was not even brought up which I think is an important matter to consider, if the man is dating a much older woman - childbearing. I know of a person who had reservations about settling down with an older woman bcos she was almost past her childbearing age. When it comes to offspring, it will definitely involve getting opinions/blessings of both parents, whether they are okay without grandchildren. Regardless of how advance technology is, somehow the guy has to be ready and willing to give up the option of having biological children or else this could be a 'thorn' in the relationship

[@atatur123]

"When it comes to offspring, it will definitely involve getting opinions/blessings of both parents, whether they are okay without grandchildren." Respectfully, I need to disagree with you there. The couple's parents don't get to decide if their children want to have kids. Whatever the situation (grandkids or no grandkids), they're just going to have to make their peace with it. The decision is out of their hands. If they choose to antagonise the relationship for this reason (against the wishes of their adult children), then they're risking their children cutting them out of their lives. To your other point, I know of plenty of couples who don't want and are choosing to live childfree lives. Gone are the days where kids were a must for a "happy stable family". I also know that "egg freezing" has become more and more popular. A few of my single female friends have done that (once they got close to a certain age). That + surrogacy means you're really not on nature's clock anymore. The obstacle is the high cost, more than anything else.

im so called dating this guy 3 yrs younger than me he's 19.. i'm 22. i have also been paying all our meals and expenses. im doing a small business and he is still interning, so he has not much money. i feel ok paying for meals cuz i sympathise with him but my problem is that he does not even mention anything about returning the favour or thinking of repaying me back in the future. not sure if we would even have a future tgt but its the lack of thought that threw me off. such as, he rather spend money on his friends and family but not me. when i have alr spent $300+ on him for our 5 dates so far.. its also not easy for me also since my business is not the most stable and doesnt earn as much as he thinks i do.. our lifestyle is also v different. he is born rich and im born poor. he wants all the branded things and i do not care abt any of those expensive brands..

[@GiGiSchnapps]

@@SXLEOPARDSKINNED I mean its not really a trend if its been going on for a really long time! The focus used to be on the older women; why is she dating a younger man? Is she bored of men her age? Etc. Just as the focus used to be on Sugardaddies, now its on the sugar baby. Its just a perspective shift, but its still the same story thats been going on for a while!

[@GiGiSchnapps]

@@SXLEOPARDSKINNED I mean it in a respectful way, with cub, cougar, sugar daddy and sugar baby used to describe a may-september romance. My observation is mostly on the shift on what society is focusing on now and how they are looking at it; from the lense of the September partner, to the lense of the May partner.

[@Fakeslimshady]

@@GiGiSchnapps Then why is it in older men/younger women romances, the focus is still on the potential predator?

[@GiGiSchnapps]

@@Fakeslimshady not in all cases. In recent years theres been a rise in discussion surrounding the sugar baby and why she chooses to be that. Also, if you noticed, the terminology used for older women/younger men relationship (aka calling the women "cougar"), also paints these women as predatory, so I don't really think its excluaive to either gender. In my opinion, the older of the two is usually viewed as predatory due to the percieved imbalance of power dynamics with one being much older and usually seens to be of authority and dominance over the other.

[@cassiopee26]

As a 42 YO woman, all I can say is that, contrary to these people in the video, I'm more of an "equal parternship" and do not expect the man to take care of everything financially (especially if he's younger). If I can see that my -potentially future- partner has drive, is serious about his ambitions and works towards them then I'll feel open to a relationship with him. I wouldn't even be interested in a man my own age if the guy had no ambition at all. It's really a matter of character and if you're putting action into your words.

[@darkdrift0r124]

You can see her in "Babe of all trades" and all the other clicknetwork shows. But being pretty is not even the most attractive part about her, it is the fact that she is very intelligent and capable as well, not just academically but also in the way she speaks and carries herself. We will all lose our youth & beauty one day when we grow old but attractiveness that stems from intelligence will be something that will always stick to us for a long long time.
