Welcome dating, married, and single ladies of the internet. We all have something unique to say about our experience in dating. Some of us have stronger patterns than others when it comes to finding our Prince Charming. Maybe you're into the "good guy" then get bored of him, maybe you like a challenge and choose the tortured soul, maybe you think, "He's much older than me, he must be more mature in life and love." Think again.

We're all familiar with the common phrase, "Age is just a number." When it comes to dating the male gender, we know this is true. And it's not just based on our personal experience! Science tells us the prefrontal cortex in women, the area of the brain responsible for behavioral development and maturity, peaks roughly two years before those for men. Our response, two years or ten years? Ladies, let's laugh at all the times you tried to date older men thinking they were a grown up man.
