They say dating older men perfectly makes sense — maturity, responsibility, financial stability. Still, more often than not, women gravitate back to dating someone their age.

Their reason? Dating older men gets boring after a while.

While this may have some truth in it, this claim falls under gross generalization. Dating older men aren’t that boring if you’re with the right kind.

Here’s what you’re missing out on by not dating older men just because you think they’re no fun.

Older men introduce you to interesting people

Not every man your age has already finished med school or has defended numerous cases in court. Most older men have.

Isn’t it fascinating to date a successful engineer, professor, lawyer, doctor, or established businessman? You learn exciting things every day by merely observing them. Ask them whatever question you fancy and they will gladly answer. They’re not only your pride but an inspiration to do good in your career.

And when you go out on dates, you may bump into people you have no chance of knowing should you date someone 25. You get introduced to interesting people, like his colleagues who you can add to your connections. Simply put, they make your life more exciting and interesting.

Older men have the best date ideas

Men older than you have more resources to make your dream dates come true. They don’t just stick to flowers and candle-lit dinners, or Netflix dates and a stroll in the park.

Want to attend your dream concert? They can gift you a ticket. Dressing up and attending ballroom dancing isn’t much of a thing for millennials, but older men think you’ll appreciate being invited to one.

They’ll also introduce you to interesting music and art. You’ll be on several museum dates, and probably even attend an auction or two. Ultimately, older men have more creative date ideas than younger men.

Older men will never run out of topics for conversation

Being older means he’s had his fair share of epic experiences. You wouldn’t want to miss hearing them out. He probably has a treasure trove of stories from his childhood to early adult years.

But it won’t always be him doing all the talking. You’ll need to keep him updated on the latest trends and slang. You’ll be explaining what kind of music or movies your generation enjoys, and you’ll have the occasional “which generation is better” debate.

On days you’re not in the mood for outdoor dates, stories and interesting conversations will keep you entertained.

Older men appreciate the little things

Older men know the value of time — and youth, more than anyone else. They will appreciate you more than guys your age ever will. Got your hair and nails done? Or are you set on a fitness journey? They notice and give you compliments for it.

They also won’t waste time arguing over petty matters. They don’t engage in texting games because they’ll call you instead.

And, most important of all, older men don’t easily judge. They want you to pursue what you want, act how you’re most comfortable, and not care about how others think as long as you’re happy.

If you’re with a man who can bring out the best in you, how can that ever be boring?
