I'm 47, in the past few months I have been with half dozen slender, attractive women in the their 20s and a couple more in their very early 30s.

I am no Richard Gere/George Clooney/Brad Pitt by any means but I am fit, well dressed and well groomed. I don't make age any kind of issue and do not draw any attention to it. I am just engaging an attractive lady as I would regardless of age. If they bring up anything about age, it's just a shit test so I let it go in one ear and out the other and don't recognize or acknowledge the concern. If anyone asks how old I am I simply say very calmly and matter of factly that I am a legal adult in all 50 states and that they don't have to worry about.

Attraction and chemistry are age-blind. If they are attracted to you and there is some chemistry there it doesn't matter how old you are. If they are not attracted to you and there isn't any chemistry then it doesn't matter how old you are.

Establish attraction and generate chemistry and tension just like you would with anyone else.

I'm 40 and lucky enough to look like I am in my late 20's or early 30's in fact, I typically get younger age guesses than my trusty 30 year old wing. I will admit however, that I have had a couple flake and toss me in the LJBF zone due to age, one was 24 and one was 19. But these were the exceptions...

On the flip-side, however, I have had recent success with a 19 and 23 year old and most of the girls I tend to attract are in their mid 20s anyway. The great thing you have going for you is that you are in fact 31 and thats a really great place to be right now, so try playing it in your favor.

When I get asked the age question, I count it as a shit test and make them guess. They typically get one guess and after that, I play with them and reveal at a later time if needed. I find that if I build enough comfort and that the attraction is there, that the age barrier gets tossed aside.

If they press on and I do reveal, they are typically shocked and intrigued, and disregard any beliefs they had about age, because, they just came across a young looking, energetic, well dressed, well groomed, intelligent, witty, and confident guy. Sure, that may sound a bit cocky to some, but I had some esteem issues after coming from a long term relationship - I had to basically convince myself that I was worth the time. And I am...and so are you. Remember that...

Good luck brotha...Health, Wealth, Love...

I think you are failing to see the difference between "im attracted but i feel like i need to say that you are too old for me" vs "why are you talking to me old man." You just cant take words verbatim, the subtext is what matters, you respond to the subtext not the dialouge.

man, you can't compare just anybody to Hugh Hefner-playboy helloo?! He's rich, you can't possibly mean that the girls actually love him.. He can't even have sex without viagra ( although he's awesome to still be able to have sex even with viagra at that age ) Young girls as hot as they are with him for a few simple reasons and it's not because he gamed them.

It usualy depends on what the dinamic of conversation is.

From spicy to more conservative:

- "This will be the last thing on your mind after I fuck your brains out" - this works really well if it's a playful conversation. You can use it for any possible "complaint". (you're too skinny, fat, old, young, etc.)
- "I've never heard that after I showed a girl what experience means in bed"
- "That would only be a problem if you where my type" (only in very early stages)
- "That's too bad. You looked like you vere just mature enough to hang out with me"
- Ignore. Continue with gaming.

Turn the situation around before she has the opurtunity (if you feel like she will point it out)
- "Too bad you're so young. I like more mature and experienced girl that knows what she wants"
