Top Reasons to Date a Man Exactly 52 Months Older Than You
LatestMen are like a fine artisanal premium cheese. They need to be aged exactly 52 months more than you to taste right. I don’t know about you, but when I find myself talking to an older man, especially a man who is exactly four years and four months older than me, something clicks. I can’t explain it, but it just feels like the universe’s chakra has aligned itself correctly for the first time, that everyone on earth is holding hands in a circle and sharing a Coca Cola, that the clouds are parting gently so a ray of life-affirming light can burst through and radiate all over me. I see my future, and it is one of comfort, reassurance, deep passion and well-planned investments. And I can only think: Every woman should have this.
Which is why it should not surprise you that a study interviewing 2,000 weirdly specific humans found the exact same thing: that the ideal age gap between men and women is exactly 52 months, provided the man is older, because, duh.
Even though half those interviewed were desperately ignorant people who said there is no such thing as an ideal age difference between people who want to be together, other women were brave enough to put themselves out there and say that they’d even date a man all the way up to a radical seven years older than them.
Only one out of 100 sad, pathetic excuses for a woman said they’d date a guy — get this — younger than them. Of course, dating a man too much older when the woman was significantly younger was an obvious sign of her money-grubbing whorishness, but never reflected poorly on the brilliant, powerfully erotic wisdom of the older man.
What is it about a man exactly four years and four months older that makes every woman quiver with measurable approval? Only just about everything, proving why it’s the ideal age gap for couples at any age.
He Has More Money
No matter what you did or are willing to do, you can’t compete with his earning potential, so hitch your wagon to that star if you have any plans to live in house-like structures.
He Offers a “Different Perspective”
You were about to say Green Day was your favorite punk band. But back in his day, 52 months older guy was listening to a little something called The Clash.
