20 HOT Signs a Younger Man Likes an Older Woman

Author: Renée Shen.

Ah, the joy of receiving the affection of a younger man. Traditionally, people talk about older men desiring younger women - usually for their radiance, youth and energy.

But the truth is that older women are also garnering the attention and affection of younger men these days. You can say it’s their life experience or the fact that women are ageing differently these days, as they are taking better care of themselves. 

It could also be the fact that older women may have the appeal of having already become mothers (and therefore they’ve developed the value of their nurturing, maternal instinct and depth of feminine energy).

Of course, older ladies also have the appeal of sexual maturity, sense of humour and earned wisdom. 

Contrary to common beliefs, women don’t always lose their value as they age. Certain women actually increase their value, and believe me when I say that the smart younger men notice this value!

It’s important to know that love knows no age difference. It is a feeling that can be developed between any two individuals. Your landing on this article shows that you might already have developed a special fondness for a younger guy.

However, you need to be aware that a young man can be the wolf in sheep’s clothing just as much as an older man can be!

Sure, younger men are more likely to be more innocent in general, but they can also be players with a well rehearsed pick up game.

So it is important to know his true feelings, and you must look for the real and sure-shot signs a younger man likes an older woman.

Let me clarify this first: 

Younger guys fall in love with older women all the time. 

So, if you have developed a special bond with a younger man, there is nothing controversial about it. 

There must be a very good reason for him to choose you when he could have easily found someone his own age.

If this young guy constantly flirts with you, seems to always be available to help when you need it and genuinely cares about your feelings, then my dear, you may have mesmerised him with your charisma and maturity.

One of the clearest signs a younger man likes an older woman is that he likes touching you gently. 

Touching shows that he is trying to get close to you, and it is one of the ways he would use to check if you like him back. And if you do like him, he may expect you to reciprocate the touch.

Young men use touching as the lead form of flirting with older women. Whether it’s a soft touch on your hands or friendly hugs - when you see these frequently happen with him, understand that he likes you.

Guys use texting as a form of flirting with women, and when the texts or WhatsApp start getting naughty or flirty, understand that he is into you!

The texts might sometimes not be too direct but in the form of jokes or quotes that have dual meanings. 

Being a woman, you would easily be able to understand the difference between regular messages and flirty ones. Am I right?

If you’d like to use texting to increase the romantic tension and emotional attraction, causing him to ask you out, I recommend you use the dark feminine art of high value banter. Don’t know what the dark feminine art of high value banter is? CLICK Here to find out!

Masculine men are rough around the edges and more careless about their actions when women aren’t around, or when they are around women they don’t care about.

If you find that he changes his body language when you’re around to become softer and more sensitive, then he probably has a deep respect for you and wants to do the right thing by you.

What are signs that he softens when you’re near?

• His voice increases to a higher pitch
• If he’s tall, he stoops over to look less intimidating
• His gestures are more gentle than usual
• He becomes more affectionate and loving

Yep, guys poke fun at women they like. This is how masculine guys express their fondness for you.

It doesn’t always have to mean he likes you more than a friend, but with this particular sign, the difference between liking you as a friend and liking you more than a friend lies in the frequency in which he makes fun of you.

If he does it once in a while, it’s most likely just who he is.

But if he does it a lot - it’s because he finds you endearing and wants to have more influence over your feelings and ‘push’ his way into your life.

Let’s get one thing straight here: guys don’t express their ‘like’ or their ‘love’ for you the same way we do.

They know that if they came outright and professed their deep admiration and love, that that may make them look weaker or lower value, or worse still - they may come across as a player!

As such, a younger man may feel free and naughty enough to always have a little smirk on his face every time you show up or walk past him.

It takes a lot for most guys to care about a woman’s feelings. For most men, feelings are a bother - an extra distraction in the day that just holds him back from the important things he needs to do.

But if you find that he cares when you’re sad, listens when you’re upset, or celebrates just as much as you do when you’re happy, then perhaps you have a younger guy who likes you right there!

Does he really enjoy your wisdom? Value the thoughts and opinions that you have gained through life experience?

And does he really take the time to listen and take your opinions on board?

If he does, then this is one of the definite signs a younger man likes an older woman.

Why?

Because men usually like to have their own direction - it comes with the territory of being a man with predominantly masculine identity. They usually don’t like to take in the advice of others, and if they do, they don’t always fully listen.

(This is because most masculine men prefer to finds things out for themselves).

But if he deeply respects you and cares how his actions make you feel, then you’ll find that he listens intently to your opinion and takes your thoughts to heart.

Warning: Some men do this to seek your approval. And despite the fact that it might be a good ego boost for you, it’s important to remember that if a man is addicted to seeking your approval, that is lowkey toxicity.

We all seek approval sometimes - that’s normal. But some men make a bit habit of it and cannot seem to stop. You don’t want to get entangled with one of these men, no matter how sexy and exciting he is!

If you observe that he frequently tries to come nearer to you, then consider it an indication that he likes you. 

For example, he may always choose to sit beside you, or while helping you out with something, he might try to smell your hair. These are things that a man does when he is attracted to you and really wants more of you. 

Coming close to you physically is always on his mind, and if his actions show that he is constantly trying to do it, he really likes you. 

The ball is in your court now, and how you react to his closeness would determine the course of your relationship.

Here are 10 High Value Ways To Tell Him You Like Him.

They say “love is blind,” but I would dare to go a step further and say love is blind, deaf, and knows no bounds, as you can see from the above signs a younger man likes an older woman. 

Age is actually just a number; what matters is the feelings you share with him. If you both like each other, nothing should stop you from committing to each other, or simply enjoying your time together.

You just need to be sure that you don’t misinterpret his actions, jump the gun to soon and end up doing something that pushes him away. 

I recommend that you test his feelings with playful comments or texts to get a better idea of where he’s at, and to bring his feelings to the surface. The Feminine Woman has 3 low risk and high value ways to tell a guy you like him. 

Live long and love deeper!
