Gilly,
hope your still there and following the thread- which is getting a little tangential to say the least and moving into UWG/HAC( ugly white guy with hot asian chick )territory-that old chestnut
On a positive note about your age -don't worry there are plenty of guys right into mature women and i dont think this will be an issue particularly if you are in mainland China- you will easily get yourself plenty of younger male admirers from this category - the true connoisseur IMHO
i can only say rank amateurs chase 20- somethings in HK/China
the mature women there ("si laais" )absolutely rock after having usually had excellent training by their(ex or current) local husbands& sure know what they are doing .
The husbands often stop sleeping with the wives when they take up a mistress or 2 which leaves the wives very grateful for anyone willing to admire their numerous head- to- toe -charms.
Personally i always insit on mature and experienced si laais
Good way to attract ppl. All the bees surrounding the flower. hahahaha
Why does one lifestyle have to be better than another? Some people like oranges, other apples or bananas.
I would never seriously date someone that doesn't make good money or have a university education but if my friends want to marry a HK DH or a visiting professional from a neighboring country or go bonking whatever moves on the weekend, that's their prerogative and I wish them the best of times either way. Not for me to say what will make them happy and they can shop up in public with whatever they want... if I don't like it, I'll walk away
What I meant was that as you hit 50 the type of 20 year old you are going to attract is off the less pretty variety, thus not being able to take her out in public - unless you have the cash to keep the beautiful ones interested.
But even saying this it does kind of look ridiculous for a 50 year old, any 50 year old having a 20 year old on his arm. Just think Rod Stewart, Michael Douglas et al and their women are in their thirties. The youth of the women just makes the guys look crustier.
Far better to have a bit of fun then make sure you've found someone to get crusty with at roughly the same pace
There are some rather insulting and ignorant generalisations in here:
You can't have a deep and meaningful conversation with a woman in her 20s. Why? Are they stupid or something?
You can't show off a 20 something in case they open their mouth. Why are all 20 somethings stupid or something?
Only cash keeps them interested - really? You know this for a fact?
I suggest you come and say some of things directly to my wife's face.
Oh and DHs are not educated - I suggest you check out some of their qualifications.
I'll answer my quote from earlier.
What would a middle aged guy have in common with a twenty something gf? He would of lived a lot whereas a girl in her twenties would just be starting out in life and won't have the life experiences of the middle aged guy.
You can't have a deep and meaningful conversation with somebody that doesn't understand what you've been through etc all they can do is smile and nod. Not exactly what I'd call deep and meaningful now is it?
