Older women flirt with much younger men all the time

It means that the older you get the less you care about your perceived appearance.

Everyone thinks to some extent that they are being watched and judged by everyone. When in fact noone cares and its all in your head. That understsnding gives you a sense of confidence and freedom to just...be yourself and not worry about the small things like rejection or appearances (not in a fashion or beauty sense)

"I wouldn’t have had the guts to compliment a guy when I was younger, but at this age I don't care anymore"

what do they mean by this?

What part of this is confusing lol

-Shes-A-Carnival · 2023-10-21T17:00:49+00:00

if you are younger and compliment a guy he thinks youre interested in him, are forward and tries to pursue you, if youre older he just takes it as a compliment

ReplacementPasta · 2023-10-21T21:50:45+00:00

Compliments =/= flirting

Valuable-Marzipan761 · 2023-10-21T17:03:21+00:00

Probably that now they're older, you're probably not going to assume they want to date you if they compliment you.

Safinated · 2023-10-21T20:32:46+00:00

They mean you’re not going to fuck then, so they don’t have to follow through on it

Same reason taken men are treated more affectionately than single men — they won’t expect sex

Flirting and giving a compliment aren't the same thing and that's why a lot of younger women don't compliment men, because men don't seem to know the difference. Women compliment other women constantly. They're not flirting with them.

thetruthishere_ · 2023-10-21T18:33:19+00:00

We can compliment them and they dont think we want to date them.

Men closer to our own age think we must like them.

I do not compliment men outside who Im dating or a friend as every single time he thinks Im into him when it was just a compliment.

It burned me a few years ago, again. LOL He hunted down my number and started texting me. I just said I like his sweater...

When women are younger, in order not to make anyone misinterpret compliments as flirting, we abstain on making compliments.

The older we get, the more confidently we can make compliments since less and less people can misinterpret our compliments as flirting. It's more like a compliment an aunt would make.

januaryphilosopher · 2023-10-21T17:51:47+00:00

They know they don't have a chance with you so they aren't scared about screwing it up. They can just give compliments and you're not going to think it's a good idea to stalk them or something as a result.

A 55 year old woman probably knows that a 25 year old guy will not assume she's hitting on him if she compliments him. Or, if he does think she's hitting on him, he won't be attracted to her, so he won't ask her out.

It's less risky than if a 25 year old woman compliments a 25 year old guy.

Sisstasia · 2023-10-21T17:21:13+00:00

They've gained confidence as they've gotten older.

SwaySh0t · 2023-10-21T16:56:26+00:00

In short they no longer have nothing to lose. A lot of times it just an ego thing to see if they “still got it”

Ok_Smile_60 · 2023-10-21T23:26:12+00:00

My ‘Chad’ bartender friend had plenty of older women hit on him. He even a regular ‘customer.

He was early 20s.

Especially divorced women

boomeranghitcha · 2023-10-22T15:08:02+00:00

They are creeps.

Oh, wait, never mind. We are only allowed to assume the worst when it's men.

Some-Parsnip-1551 · 2023-10-21T19:15:27+00:00

It's the wall, they've hit it hard and fast and scrambling to get over it by any means possible. Wall women tend to cougarise young males to get back a time in their life where all the attention was on them.

Every time I see an older woman with a younger guy my automatic thought process is, look at this woman trying to regain her youth by manipulating a young guy.

I've been with older women 10-20+ year age difference, all of them had severe mental health issues/insecurities.

Equivalent-Target724 · 2023-10-21T17:09:45+00:00

Probably because they're expired and no longer get hit on like they used to.

James_Cruse · 2023-10-22T04:53:13+00:00

What women really mean when they say:

“I never complimented a man when I was younger but I don’t care now that I’m older” = She has no dating options now when she’s older so she needs to complement men to even get a tiny amount of potential sexual attention from a young man.

Young attractive Women don’t compliment men because they usually don’t need to: it gives away their power and men smell blood in the water when they get a compliment from a young woman.

If that young woman compliments you: she knows you as a man are going to take that as: I’m sexually interested in you, I want you to persue me.

The reason I know this: when I start dating very attractive young women, I find they give me alot of compliments after we’ve been dating awhile. It’s a way to get something from me, and show me they want me to persue them. Women operate this way, young or old. But young women don’t give strange men that kind of incentive - unless they already know them.

How on earth do old women feel so comfortable just walking up to men and casually making comments about their looks… when they’ve spent the last 70 years shrieking about how much they hate men doing this?

The fucking audacity of these old birds I swear

Wide-Illustrator2906 · 2023-10-21T20:41:40+00:00

It's the same reason why older men hit on younger women. They don't care about how they look to society, they are just going for what they want and older women are very aggressive towards younger guys they find attractive. The first two women I hooked up with in college were 35+ and recently divorced. They basically put their phone numbers in my hand and told me when their kids wouldn't be home.

SlowEffective8146 · 2023-10-22T00:02:59+00:00

It means they've accepted that a guy (who they think is hot) will just fuck them and not commit and they've accepted those terms.

Happens all the time like you said 50+ and they will touch you across your chest and grab your arm and ask you questions and of course say sexual innuendos with their friends.

I have had more older women hit on me telling me how handsome I look or compliment me in an attractive and sexual tone.

It’s almost like older women become just as annoying to men just as they say men are to younger women.

ChiBron86 · 2023-10-22T14:14:15+00:00

There's an obvious explanation for this: Older women (40+) are a far cry from what they once were and thus need to put more effort into getting what they desire. And don't for a second think their intentions aren't sexual. Older women love getting railed by men much younger and attractive than them. Huge ego boost for them. No issues of ED either. Men also enjoy it because 1) duh sex 2) older women are lower value thus more attainable 3) both parties intrinsically understand neither is looking for something long term, so you can just have fun.

Of course, only in in-person interactions do older women have to put more effort for sex. They still absolutely slay on dating apps. Have fucked many 40+ year old women on tinder and literally every single one of them had 🍆 for years.

They are less anxious and more sexually open.
