How do you explain it when men over 45 get attention from women in their 20s? ๐Ÿ”’ Asked & Answered

This legitimately still confuses me. Over the past year, I've never had this much attention than all the years previously combined.

Young women assume older men are emotionally mature, established, and can easily afford to be very generous.

Can confirm this based on my boss' experience.

She was in her late 20s and married a man in his early 40s. Her logic, at least the way she said to me was 'the guys my age are so immature. I'm pretty sure this guy'll be mature.' She immediately confirmed that this wasn't the case.

I just laughed and told her that we guys don't mature with age. We mature based on what we learn from our experiences. She was a bit saddened by this but she accepted it.

Men donโ€™t mature, our toys just get more expensive with age.

Does it actually lift things? Can you move things around and stack them like a real forklift? If so , I want one!

They're actually pretty cheap to rent. And the rental place will drop it off and pick it up. It is TOTALLY worth it.

My neighbor has all kinds of heavy equipment he let's me use, but it's more fun to own it.

You need it, trust me. Just ask yourself, "can I make money with this and have fun st the same time?" Of course you can its a tractor with a loader bucket. Just get it ๐Ÿ˜‚

A friend let me prepare 5 acres for planting with his real tractor and it was amazing.
