Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to convince a 65-70+ woman she might enjoy dating/ having a relationship with a 29 year old man. I'm having a devil of a time telling women age doesn't matter while dealing with the fact that it matters to me. Just to be clear, I'm not just out for sex.
. . . always willing to give a helping hand! LOL! :D

(Joe, where DO you find these things?? :) )
Dub, 25 + years from now I'm going to have an awfully hard time believing that a 29 year old man is genuinely interested in dating me. Hey, I'm not sure I'd believe it even at this age!
Forget the giant leap to romance -- maybe you'll have to let her get to know you, and your overall sincerity as a person first, by being friends. That would give you an opportunity to show her that you appreciate her as a WOMAN, and not as a "mother figure", or however she views herself in relation to you.

Hang in there! You've got company on the West Coast. I'll be watching this thread to see what kind of advice you get. I have absolutely no limit on age and there are some 60+, even 70+, women I know whom I would definitely enjoy dating.
This past weekend I was on an overnight driving trip with a woman of around 60 who's a friend of a longtime friend of mine (my friend's 48). I'd never met this other woman before, but liked her right away. What really won my heart is that this woman popped Def Leppard's "Hysteria" into the CD player and cranked up the volume to an earsplitting level! She is too cool:cool: and I'd really like to get a dating relationship going!
Good luck, my man! Keep us posted.

I've had 2 realtionships with 70+ women, the result being that I am a 2 time widower. The second relationship ended quite badly with her family- I could not see her while she was sick, nor was I able to attend her funeral. Point being, it has always been awkward approaching women 2-3 times my age, and now I have a real problem with the possibility that they have children.
"Would you like to have dinner sometime? By the way, do you have kids?"
Savannah, pm me and I'll send you some sites, cool?

Guys, the best way to any woman's heart is to think help-mate...be helpful...there is nothing more sexy than a guy who decides that he will help you get your car engine fixed, or help paint that wall that needs touching up, or help carry in groceries, or help with adjusting that fan motor that is broken. The helpful man is unselfish...she will think, "Oh, he is actually helping me not himself to me...he must be caring..."
Forget the kids, if she is not concerned, you should not be either. Her kids will come around if she adores you and is happy...and if they aren't, any decent woman will defend her man and tell them to back it up some. Besides, she does want to see if you can handle kids [at least the thought of kids in your head that is]. Guys who are intimidated by kids come off looking like whimps in a mom's eyes...so at least act like you can handle them and don't act like you are going to run for the hills.
Most older females don't live with their kids either. Most adult children want their moms to have a life. Some act overly protective but just ignore it.
After being a help-mate, then offer to take her places, do things with her, and don't bring up the sex verbally. Let her take the initiative to hug or touch your hand or body...then let your touch do the talking for you.
Good luck,
Hadley
