A study has found that men always want to be with women in their mid-20s The magic number for men of all ages was around 24 or 25-years-old Evolution and Human Behavior journal found women were more realistic They prefer to be with men who are around two or three years older

Ask a man in his 50s about his ideal woman, and chances are she would be half his age.

And if a 20-year-old described his dream date, he’d probably choose someone a little bit older.

For, according to a study, no matter how old a man is he always hankers after a woman in her mid-20s.

I don’t think I could survive a mid 20’s gal nor the associated drama!

Ya, but would they have anything in common. That is important if relationship is going to last. Less of an issue if it is a short term, one night stand, relationship.

LOL...someone will have to Photoshop a Testosterone-Laden Captain Obvious!

But...that doesn’t mean Captain Obvious doesn’t adore his wife!

As a middle-aged coworker told me many years ago:

“My wife right now is 35, and I can barely keep up with her!”

At the site is a pic with the caption: "A study has found that men, no matter what age they are, want to be with a woman in her mid-20s. Celebrity couple Jason Statham, 47, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, 27, show that this can work"

'Cause celebrity couples always have long lasting, stable and happy marriages...

Ya. And what would you talk about and more importantly have in common? Justin Bieber? Actually a Bieber fan is probably a teen. But you get my point.

He’s not going to marry this one.

A friend once told me he didn’t want to keep it. He just wanted to pet it for a while and let it go.

“I’m 50 and 35 is good.”

I am older than that and I agree with you.

A girl in her mid 20’s would likely kill me.. I would however have some intereting stories to tell in the afterlife.

I remember reading once that a man should marry a woman half his age +7 years.
