Dating An Older Man - 17 Secrets You Should Know

By: Carlos Cavallo
If you're thinking of dating an older man, you probably want to know what to expect.

There are a lot of things you need to know in order to date older men. Both positive things - and some challenges you should be aware of.

You may have a lot of questions, such as:

What is dating an older man like?
Is it ethical to date an older man?
Is it okay to date someone 10 years older?
How old is too old?
If you're in your 30s, 40s, 50s - you need to know how to handle the age difference, no matter how big or small it is.

And if you seen Catherine Zeta Jones and Michael Douglas, you know that it can not only work but look fantastic. As it does with Jay-Z and Beyonce, or Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively... And many others.

First of all -

REALITY CHECK-IN: Why him...?
Make sure you understand why you're choosing this guy in the first place. It's always important to ask yourself why the person you're attracted to is so attractive to you.

What you might find is that there is a trigger being pulled. An emotional one.

Very often spontaneous romance happens because your weak spot matches something about him. When it's an age difference of more than a few years, make sure you're not projecting on him.

Yes, there is the old cliché of the " daddy's girl" and all of the psychological issues that brings with it. But it's a cliché for a reason.

Many women who get involved with older men are looking to connect with something they feel they are missing. As long as you understand why you made the choice, you can go in with your eyes wide open.

REALITY CHECK-IN: Are there others...?

When you date an older man, there's a very distinct possibility that he's been married before. And maybe even has children with another woman.

You're going to have to know for yourself whether or not you want to become an instant mom. And you have to be aware of all the complications of a relationship with another family.

His first obligation will obviously be to his children. You'll also have to make some kind of relationship with the ex-wife if things go the distance. And you have to understand your priority in that mix.

REALITY CHECK-IN: There's also the money...

Keep in mind that your financial pictures might be distinctly different. One of the most likely places that you will argue is over money.

And yes money can also break up your relationship.

Many women do marry for the benefits of extra financial security. If you really do feel an emotional connection and love with him, there's nothing wrong with money as a side benefit.

Just be aware that you may have to have some serious discussions around your contribution possibly not matching his. And even if he says that's not an issue, he does have to approve of your spending and money habits.

On the other hand, if you're the wealthy one, you need to watch out that his intentions are pure as well.

Now, here are a few things you definitely need to know in order to date an older man...

Tip #1: The cool part is, you are always HER...

Have you ever seen a couple where he is the distinguished older guy, and she is the younger woman on his arm?

Let's be perfectly honest here- I'm sure you said some pretty catty things about it. And let's be extra honest and admit you were probably a little bit jealous.

The cool part about dating an older man is that you are always going to look young for his age. And that does wonders for your vanity as well as your feelings about how you look.

It's a great side benefit of being the 'younger woman.' Live it up!

Tip #2: Beware making him feel like a fossil...

To be sure, one of the things you don't want to do is make this guy feel older than he already is. Some women make the mistake of trying to make him look older so that she seems younger.

This won't go over very well for him. What he wants to feel is more virile, not like your grandpa.

The best thing you can do is to point out all of his traits that make him seem:

established
wise
capable
virile
desirable

Hey, if he landed you then he must be doing something right, right?

Tip #3: Give him time to ...
