I really would not have a problem in the least dating an older lady.

Except that whole not single thing, you know.

Lines:
I like dating people at the same maturity level as me and that's all I know. But I am in my 20s and I don't want to date younger boys because the ones around here are kind of dumb.

Josefbugman:
How is "maturity level" defined. I mean I just wanted to ask how people define how "mature" someone is.

See I think this only applies when you're talking about people between the ages of 14 and 18.

EQUAL RIGHTS mean I can find a girl that will date a guy younger than or of equal age to them.

THERE ARE NO EQUAL RIGHTS.

Actually it's funny that although now I'm semi into this 34 year old guy, and dated some people one or two years older than me, the vast number of people I've been into have tended to be younger or maybe the same age. AND THEY WERE ALL EFFING DUMB. srsly

One thing I've noticed with equal age or younger guys 18-22 is that they freak out easy. Showing interest means I love them and want to suck them into a heavy serious relationship, even if what I'm really getting at is a bootycall. Or sometimes they were into the serious thing, but as a result completely changed their personality and became uninteresting.

I think maturity level as far as relationships go is being able to be honest and upfront about your emotions and what you want. Also important is having a sense of self strong enough to be open to growing and learning from someone else, while still resisting the urge to abandon their individual perspective in hopes of merging completely into a single relationship unit (so gross). There is a really fine balance between the ability to love and depend on other people, and the ability to be independent on one's own. It might be something you have to figure out with time. I think men are raised in a culture that discourages the dependence aspect, as well as demonstrating emotion (being a wuss, being emo, i.e. being a 'girl') so perhaps thats why there is a hunk of truth in the generalization that they mature slower as there needs to be more time to reprogram all that junk out.
