So I’m generally on the young side for this group (26) but would prefer someone older than me (40+) when it comes to relaxing and bonding in a platonic ABF. I suppose this is because I’m seeking someone perhaps already in-tune with their nurturing side.
If you’re a woman older than I am, would being with a younger (and perhaps new to ABF) man be a turn-off? Would you not be able to relax and enjoy the moment because it felt TOO motherly?
OR would your nurturing instincts kick in regardless and help you enjoy the moment?
It may sound like a strange question but I’m new here and looking for a local friend to experience this with and am wondering how the women here may generally feel about it.I think it’s all based on personal preference. I never imagined being with a guy more than 5 years younger than me but my boyfriend (also my partner) is 7 years younger than me. He is very mature for his age and what I would consider to be an “old soul” which makes uo for the difference in years.
Hm, I figured much if not all of it would be up to personal preference, so you’re right. I hope it works out in my favor since all the women I’ve reached out to are quite older than me 😅 really, I’m in it for the closeness and comfort right now… Or at least want to try it with someone nurturing. I suppose many women older than me would be seeking romantic partners, but maybe somebody out there would find a platonic relationship rewarding
Hey there, I like your post! I appreciated your thoughts on this and the question you posed. For me, I am really drawn to the nurturing and comforting aspect of ANR. I feel like I’m kind of in between the younger and the older groups but would have no problem exploring this with a younger guy who was serious about creating a bond this way. For me, age isn’t an issue; I would also be content with an older partner as well. Best of luck and hope you find who you’re looking for! 🙂
Thank you! I appreciate your insight. The nurturing aspect is the biggest thing for me for sure. I’m hoping there’s SOMEBODY within driving distance that I could try it with. It sounds heavenly. I’m sure I would enjoy it with a woman of any age, but I think having an older woman help would add to the nurturing aspect 😊
I have had ANR partners almost half my age.. since In my mind Ima about 40.. it didn’t feel like such a big gap. Lol. It also really depends on the maturity level of the guy.. and don’t start the mommy stuff unless she likes that..
Personally, when I joined I was unsure what age group would be best to suit me and my needs. But once you start talking to people and when you finally click, you soon realise that on most occasions, age is completely and utterly irrelevant. I think forgetting about age and looking at peoples personalities works better. Otherwise not only are you putting too much pressure on yourself to find a particular person in a particular age group, you could be setting yourself up and disregarding those that are perfectly suited to you. Whether you are looking for the nurturing side or a long term relationship or something completely different, I have found that you can only find out by talking honestly and openly. I have met some wonderful men and women on here in such a short space of time and age just doesn’t come into it. Not for a second. Just my thoughts. Good luck in your search. xx
Thank you for your thoughts, Jay, I completely agree 🙂
In a ABF it’s not as important, now for a ANR, it becomes more of a factor.
I little search online suggests an age range for relationships something like this: 1/2 your age plus seven.
For me that’s suggests 38.
Friends is a different story and I feel anything goes for me.
If there’s a mutual interest, enjoy time together and we have ABF in common then I’m in.Maybe it’s just me but from what I’ve seen so far, it is easier to bring up ANR/ABF with more mature women. Or at least, try talking to someone younger than 30 and I’d bet they’d get confused.
The exceptions to this would obviously be the lovely ladies on this site.
