I just wanted to bring this post up to the top.
I read your post below about asking about a womans age and if you should pursue a woman much younger than yourself.
So I just wanted to share some thoughts my father told me when I was looking for a bride.
DISCLAIMER: Not all people fit the same mold, so this is a very generalized statement but I still feel that is holds a lot of truth.
When I was looking for a bride my father was actually encouraging me to look for a woman who was in her late 20's (I am 33 years old.)
His advice was sound. My father relates people to animals alot in that, despite our ability to act unnaturally, we still have natural instincts as a species.
He said that generally when a woman gets into her mid to late 20's she goes into a nesting stage in her life where she feels the need to bear children and settle down. Eventhough she may not be aware of it, oftentimes a woman will concentrate on fixing up the home (decorating, remodelling, etc..)and have a need to find a more stable relationship. Things like stability and safety become more important.
My father feels it's the natural nesting stage in a womans life. In any case I personally feel that a woman nearing her late 20's is still worth considering if you can still keep up with her physically. Believe it or not it is sometimes more difficult than it sounds. I have only realized this myself in the past few months despite my successful marriage.
My suggestion: If you are in pretty good physical shape and somewhat decent looking gentleman then I say, why not consider some lady who is 28 or 29 years old. If the match is good then why not. Just be very frank about your true nature when at home. For example: My wife is at the age where she really loves disco's more like I was in my early to mid-twenties. Now I am at the stage where I more prefer to relax with good friends. I still go dancing sometimes but less than before. So this is one area we both compromise on a little, sometimes I do what she wants, and sometimes we do what I want.
Be ready for compromise.
