I'm not sure which 20 something girls your talking about. I didn't get married until I was 43, and I had TONS of hot chicks in their 20s. From my mid 30s onward, I was dating pretty much every age group of girls from 20s to cougars, and everyone was having a great time. I had my game together, I knew how to keep them laughing, I knew how to party and I had the means to do it in style, I kept myself in good shape, I had convertable, boat, etc.... I had way more 20 something girls than I did when I was in my 20s.

Then I met my best friend in the whole world, and I wanted to have kids, etc, and now I just celebrated my 7th year married, my son is almost 2 years old, and I couldn't be happier. I feel no loss of freedom at all. You just need to find the person that has the same views on life and world as you do IMHO.

Your last line says it all. It sounds like you and them still shared a similar lifestyle and had stuff in common. For some people it works, for others it doesn't.

Let me give you an example. A friend of mine was 28 and met a girl who was 18. She pressed hard to date him and eventually went out with her. A year later they got married. For the first two years of their marriage things were good. She was in college and he had a job. Then she turned 21. Now that she was of age she wanted to go out to bars and clubs with her friends. Sometimes he went with her, but if she wanted to go out on a Tuesday night to see a band or hang with her friends, he couldn't because he had to get up at 6am to get to work.

Eventually this drove them apart. She was living the active, fun, party life of a typical 21-year-old and he was a nearly 30-year-old guy with a job and not a lot of interest in partying. She had told him before they got married that she wasn't a party girl. As it turns out she didn't know she was because she never had, but once she was able to she enjoyed it.

It didn't take long before she started hanging out with guys that were "friend" but were her age and into more of the stuff she liked to do.

Had my friend been more into doing that or having that kind of life it might have worked out, but in this case it just didn't.

Currently I just turned 42 and my girlfriend is 33. We started date a little more than a year ago and things are great. had we met when I was 30 and she was 21 I think it still may have worked out because we are pretty like minded and when we look back on things, where we were at that time in our lives we still likely would have been compatible.

Oh, I should have said that I counsel my younger friends to NEVER consider marrying a girl under the age of about 28. In my experience, women go through huge changes between 21 and 28.... they become almost different people. I have three friends that married girls that were under 24, and they were all divorced within 5 or 6 years.

I would argue that most people, guys and girls, go through a lot of changes during those years.

When I was 21 I was writing for a music magazine, I was living between two cities and was renting rooms in both. I was out every night watching and interviewing bands. My life was chaos. It was fun, but it was chaos.

By the time I was 30 a lot had changed. I was working for myself online, I had settled down and was focusing more on other parts of my life. I was much more stable.

Obviously, not everyone is like that, but many are.

One thing I am noticing now that is interesting is how women who had kids when they were young are now trying to live like they are 22. I know a few different women that are between 38-43 and all had kids when they were 18-20. Those kids are grown up now (and for those that had more than one kid the others are teenagers or close to it) so now they are going out and trying to catch up on the fun that they missed out on when they were younger.

Thank you, interesting to know.

Yea, a lot of people have no clue. But what makes things worse is when a person who has no idea what he is talking about, and talks as if he knows.

I cant tell you how many people try and tell me shit about Common Law marriage.

My question is to them: Do you even know what "Common Law" Is? Or where "Common Law came from? How it was developed? So if you don't know, SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!

When he said that, this should have been the reaction by you or one of your friends:

Worth watching ?????. :thumbsup

As a married guy, I always find myself saying "I don't remember girls being this hot and abundant when I was single."

That's what family, friends and pets are for.
