Old is gold: Move over Ben 10, Mubaba is the real deal

With age comes experience and wisdom. This is the reason a good number of women prefer dating young men for fun and ecstasy, but would rather settle down with an older man.

So wonder no more when you meet a beautiful young woman in her late 20s or early 30s with a 57-year-old, tired looking man with a silver beard, because women have become more open to sharing one older man who is responsible than being exclusively stuck with an irresponsible and struggling young man.

Every woman wants comfort and this translates to a man who can take good care of her, provide for her needs and assure her of financial stability. I know this is where the gold digging issue crops up, but hey - who among you doesn’t love soft life? Almost all of us will agree that such a man has already hustled, watered the ground and achieved a certain financial balance, compared to young guys who are still trying to find a bearing on their lives and their financial status.

With the current extreme levels of character development in relationships and marriages, committed young men still go out there to sample and entangle with women younger than their girlfriends and wives and this kills the marriage vibe on the side of their woman. On the other hand, a man who is older has gone through a whole lot in life which has hardened him and taught him lifetime lessons. If and when he decides to settle,  he does with all the energy and good intentions. He has seen and experienced what 31-year -old Jeremiah hasn’t. He has made almost enough mistakes, socially, emotionally and financially.

Older folks got no unnecessary drama. They don’t follow up on petty issues nor do they hold grudges and malice. Most of them are usually genuine with their intentions from the word go, so they won’t send mixed signals or mince their words, leaving a woman with a thousand ‘what are wes’. Like, if he wants you he does. And will set things rolling and sustain them to the very end. There’s no baby mama drama because all his children are grown and cool with their mothers. He won’t pick a fight with you or ask you who Kevo is because  he has seen him react with a love emoji on your posts. He hates petty squabbles such as who ate the last pancake and why other men are looking at you with those eyes.

Also, an older man will accept a woman for who they are without looking at the size of the boobies or how big the butt is. Dude will always want you to get higher and better, and won’t mind if you’re hit on by small small boys because he knows they can’t sustain the standards he’s set on you.

These are the type who won’t air your dirty linen on social media because you had a small disagreement or treat you badly in front of your friends and family. Nope. You’re his partner, and he will treat you with respect in front of others.

Old is gold and you know how those old niggas have perfected the art of pampering the women in their lives and treating them like the Queens they are. Because he is fully aware of her dignity, he would make sure she doesn’t lose it in the event. Yani being a gentleman is part of his nature. Talk of opening doors, pulling chairs in restaurants, wiping cake particles on your chin, plus all those small small nothings that people skip. He does them automatically and with a clean heart, expecting nothing more in return because he got you!

It is not a surprise that women are unapologetically attracted to older men. It is the in thing.

Love. Older men are all about love, trust and security. They hold very important regard for what the future entails for them and their partner. No man is perfect, so let those who prefer a mature, older man know they offer something our contemporaries just don’t have.

So Agnes,  if you get an opportunity to choose between a 33-year-old struggling man and an older one who has made his fortunes, then go for Methusela, darling. Age is just a number.
