I was having breakfast the other day with a friend who was giving dating advice to his son. If anybody asks my age,i reply how old do I look? When you're 25, you can date a 19-and-a-half-year-old. They're often more focused on what they would like out of a relationship, says Lewis.

Men at Age 57 - We have a lot of happy matches.

London - To celebrate his 65th birthday, Ronnie Wood took his beautiful 34-year-old girlfriend to Venice, the city of love. As they cuddled together in a gold-encrusted gondola, Sally Humphreys leaned in adoringly for a lingering kiss - from a man almost old enough to be her grandad. His thin, wrinkled lips were puckered like those of a man who had misplaced his dentures. His crepey skin stretched across his thin, boney face, his sun-damaged hand reached for her slender knee, his turkey neck wobbled in anticipation of a night of passion. To be honest, it was utterly revolting. One can only imagine that when they did make love, Miss Humphreys laid back and thought of the Bank of England. How else can you explain the love affair between the scarecrow Wood and this lovely theatre producer? And he has offered it to many women, all young enough to be his daughters, since he separated from his wife of 24 years, Jo. Not that there is any shortage of much younger women keen to go to bed with these gnarled old codgers. The pattern is always the same: rich, successful older man pairs up with unknown young woman. But after the first flutter of love and £50 notes, do these women really have any idea what is in store for them? And instead of a washboard stomach, they have washboard bottoms. And, as one of my young friends revealed over dinner after her affair with a 65-year-old, the sex can be a nightmare. One woman at the dinner, a glamorous fifty-something, told of her latest dating experience. She met an adorable man 12 years older than her who was very keen, but who suddenly stopped calling or returning her texts. After three weeks without a word, he reappeared. Was he back with the ex-wife? Yes, teeth problems loom large with the older man, as does health in general. They fret about their receding hairline and their ever-expanding waistlines. Forget the myth about the older man who can support you emotionally and financially: they are as needy as children, especially when they are with younger women. Constantly seeking reassurance, they need their lovers to lavish praise on them. The most brilliant portrayal of the truth of the much older man and the younger woman comes, ironically, from Woody Allen - who left his partner and mother of his children, Mia Farrow, who was a modest ten years his junior, for their stepdaughter Soon-Yi Previn, who was 35 years younger than him. Alfie subjects himself to fake tans and endless gym sessions, wears teenage clothes and watches his bank account dwindle due to her excesses. It is a poignant, rather pathetic portrayal of the Ronnie Woods of this world and reveals the truth about love with an old rogue. As exhausted Alfie discovers when he leaves his young wife and tries to reconcile with Helena, there is something marvellous about a long marriage. Even in your 80s, as I know from my own parents, you remember the young person you fell in love with, and they remember you as you were - the soft skin, the bright eyes, the youthful body, the passion and the enthusiasm. But while a lengthy marriage might provide a woman with a bank of memories to draw on when her husband turns grey and doddery, for a young woman going out with a much older man, what you see is what you get. The truth is, women are much more likely to find happiness with a man nearer their own age. He is lamenting the breakdown of his marriage to his second wife, the twenty-something spendthrift Jane, acknowledging his folly in leaving a loyal wife for a beautiful young woman. Then I realised it was because you got old.

In the 1980s Prince was known for his party lifestyle and his sexual excess - until he gave it up and became a Jehovah's Witness. I am meeting a lot of men who are 49-52 and have young children with an average age of 7. Me: But I am 47. You are also in a dream world if you think older men are slimmer, really too funny. When you're 25, you can date a 19-and-a-half-year-old. What I will say is instead of saying everybody in X age range lets themselves go or I refuse to date men in X age range because of blank, consider that people are individuals and cast a wider net. Geological Society, London, Special Publications. Ruthie has been looking for a boyfriend for the past decade. She became a born again Christian and preacher and had a kidney transplant and published her memoir: 'Blame it on Vanity' in which she spoke in fire and brimstone terms of her past life of sin. But online dating has its own set of rules — and sometimes brutal behaviour. I prefer younger by 2-3 years but only because you guys just age faster than women and when I find him well I would like him around for as long as possible! I rushed home from work, put on a new outfit, makeup and perfume, and left the house looking and feeling like a million bucks.
