There's nothing wrong with being attracted to younger broads.

That said, I wouldn't know what to talk about. Sex is sex but she would need to be unusually mature or have unique tastes for it to work.

Your brain isn't fully developed until age 25, so she's the equivalent of a grown-teenager at this point.
Why do people keep saying this?

What it means is by the time you are 25, you are gonna be stuck in your ways, it doesn't mean you somehow become mature. Your brain plasticity stops, and if you want to change you will have to work hard at it.

If anything, if you live around people who have a lot of negative characteristics, and you want to influence them for the better, you better do it before they turn 25, because after that chances are they won't change until they are forced to, and even then they might not change. If you read the Bible, the story of Exodus was basically saying this. Remember, a lot of the people weren't allowed to go into the promised land because they were stuck in their old ways, and weren't gonna change. If you are a man of means, and quality, you would be a fool to get with an older woman just because she is your age, NOTHING you say will make her change her ways if they are negative. Why do you think the divorce rate is so high? Two people trying to change each other, but shyt aint happening

What It Takes To Change Your Brain’s Patterns After Age 25
"More than a century since James’s influential text, we know that, unfortunately, our brains start to solidify by the age of 25, but that, fortunately, change is still possible after. The key is continuously creating new pathways and connections to break apart stuck neural patterns in the brain.

Simply put, when the brain is young and not yet fully formed, there’s a lot of flexibility and plasticity, which explains why kids learn so quickly, says Deborah Ancona, a professor of management and organizational studies at MIT."

I luvs the young ladies trust me but yall actually falling in LOVE in this climate? :picard: nah I would say keep the love sht closer to your age range...
LOL @ thinking age has anything to do with it.
You have flakes who are 19 and in their 50s.
The best bet is to evaluate the person you are with, the age is secondary if that, compared to that person's personality and fit with you.

I don't think neuro-plasticity necessarily works that way... if you change your environment after 25 to something totally different than what you have been experiencing, then your brain will change as well....

You are basically saying the same thing i said, but how many change their environment and adapt to doing mostly new things? Not many because its work that has to be done. I've seen people move to a different stat and make friends with the same types of people they just left, immigrants do this all the time,its their kids who adapt and its because their brains adapt more easily. You can increase the plasticity with feel good things like music and cannabis

Lol@ people thinking there is a major maturity difference between a 25 and a 20yr old
I'd say there is definitely a difference for most people, twenties are a period of the biggest mental growth. Ganted as you get older 5 years between ages is less of a difference i.e 30 and 35 and 40 and 45 e.t.c

Thats true but lets be real, only a select few can date within such awide range of age. The average person cant because they choose to do whatever their peers do,and just get old,its just part of life to them. I've always had people tell me i was older then my age,its because if everyone was going right, i went left. Now, that im older these old nikkas complain about everything different from what they grew up on, meanwhile i'm talking with young guys about old and new shyt. I cant wait to see how some in here will be hating everything new like some of my friends

Being home back in Eastern NC you see lots of random folks you've known over the decades, during the holidays, and their families.

Why is it some of the female jokers have grown up into cotdamn thick grown ass women :dahell:. One gave me a signal to make the next move, but some of these chicks were close family friends back in the day and I was like a non-blood related big bro/big cuz ..... :snoop:

Only here a few more days. :patrice:

Trying not to ask myself, "What Would JBO Do (WWJBOD)?" :mjlit:


I want to, but I feel like I'm violating, especially since I would only smash then.. finna head on out after New Years.:unimpressed:
:hhh:
