When you're a young guy, the young girls are an interesting challenge and the ones who come your way are an enjoyable interlude.
If they are together mentally, spiritually and emotionally then they may become an even a longer term affair, maybe even your soul mate.
But aside from all that, a lot of men reach a certain age and conclude that the older ladies are jolly well okay, and still good looking, plus they have a lot of life experience, which may very well wind up being a plus for both.
I know that in my twenties I really only cared about getting laid, and the young ladies had all the right tastes and smells, made all the great noises and were wonderful to look at.
But at some point I guess I got all that out of my system and while I'll probably go to my grave still wanting to "get laid", it's true that a girl in her twenties has little else to offer me at my age.
I mean, for one thing,
I'd creep myself out right off the bat because first thought in my head would be the fact that I have
a DAUGHTER that age!
Holy crap, I can't even imagine hitting on one of her little friends.
She has cute friends, but it's like
"having more daughters" because I see them, and I see that they're pretty, but I feel like
"Dad"...not
"Pimp Daddy"!
Happily married now, second time around, going on twenty-five years, but if I were single, and looking, I'd be looking for a woman who is AT LEAST in her mid to late forties if not older.
My first wife was ten years my senior, she was forty when we met.
And that's when I learned just how amazing an older woman can be, she did lose her marbles because of drugs, but at the beginning we had a lot of good times and she rocked my world.
Don't discount the cougars, they may surprise the Hell out of you...but not if you're acting all creepy.
You know, professional photographers KNOW HOW to take photographs in public, even candid ones, without acting and looking creepy.
It's pretty obvious that these old farts were indeed giving off a creepy vibe because I've snapped beach bunny candid shots and people loved to watch me work, even the women I was photographing.
For one thing, if they express discomfort at being photographed I'd be courteous, even while being firm about the legal aspects of it.
I'd delete THEIR shots just to be nice about it.
People have been shooting candids on the beach for decades, in fact...even a century.
And there's always the guys who know how to be classy, and then there's the clods who don't.
