Okay....I am going to speak from my experience pertaining to this topic....and I will be brutally honest.
When I was in my 20's, I really wanted experience making love to woman in her upper 30's. Never really happened until I was 26, but the woman was only 34.
When I got into my 30's, I wanted to experience making love to a woman in her 40's. So a couple of years ago, I had a pure sexual relationship with a 42 year old. Wow! However, things did not work out because of other issues with another woman that was putting me on hold (it's complicated).
Last year, I had a 2 month relationship with a 45 year old. She lied about her age, but I understood. I liked her and tried not to let the age thing bother me...and the fact she lied. We got along great and everything was fantastic....except for the fact that she lived in Prague. I called it off because I just did not know if I wanted to be with a 50 year old when I would be 39. The thought scared me. I don't know why, but it did. So I followed my heart. Just to clarify, I was in it for the relationship and not just sex.
In the end, I learned that I am more comfortable with women closer to me in age....younger or older. Maybe it's natural selection or the social conditioning...I don't know, I just go with what I feel. I really tried with a woman who was 11 years older than me, but it was just not meant to be for a long term relationship.
Also, on my baseball team, there are a couple of younger guys who just want to have sex with an older woman to see what it's like. Not a relationship, but just sex. I think the numbers are in the minority as far as younger guys who actually want to cultivate something meaningful with older women.
