Dating when you have a baby face

[You Know You Know]

I'm 40, but everyone guesses my age between 25 and 30. I guess that's a good thing? Do women prefer a man that actually looks like he's 40? Does it matter? Any men out there find this to be a hindrance or an advantage?

I have this problem. I'd say the main case would be the structure of your jaw. I found singing gives my facial muscles more definition so you could try that maybe you'll increase the size of your masseter (muscle used for chewing on the sides of your jaw bone).

I think it's a good thing; you'll look younger for longer. I'm sure many women will find you attractive.

Op, what was YOUR experience in your 20's? 30's?

I mean you had two decades to find out A LOT about yourself and others. Why not reflect on that?

Woman here. I prefer a guy to look younger. There are many men I've met where I'm shocked at their age (some I thought were my age 30, but ended up being mid-40s). I found it a big ++ I just see it as he'll look better longer haha

Of course, this is one woman's opinion. Some other gals may not feel the same.

I read a study once that concluded that men with less angular, "baby" type faces were perceived by women to be testosterone deficient and therefore "unattractive"...Kinda like the same deal as being flat chested as a woman..

 

I dunno...(shrug)

If you've been successful dating before now, then there's no reason why you wouldn't be now. If you've never been successful dating, it's probably about more than just one facial feature.
