<human>: So, a little back-story here. I'm a 40-year-old female, on OKC, and while I've been out on a few dates with guys my own age (35-45ish) most of them seem to be either hyperfocused on OMG MUST HAVE BABIES NAO, are so high-maintenance or co-dependent that it's a total turn-off, are sexual cold fish, internet clueless, or who are just stuffy and boring as hell. The few I would have connected with just didn't seem to have chemistry, sadly.

Meanwhile, I've been getting a lot of messages from guys who are in the 25-35 year old range. More often than with my age range, we seem to have things in common - video games, cartoons (Futurama, anime), hitting dive bars and doing drunken karaoke, silly dates like go-karts or drive-ins, etc. The thing is that I know I can't physically compete with a girl in their age range. That's just a fact of life. I'm older, and gravity is what it is. 

So, the question is this. Would guys in that age range actually consider getting into a serious relationship with someone my age? Or is it, as I suspect, younger men looking for cougar sugar mamas/casual sex/someone fun for now? (I'd be more of a splenda auntie--I love my job but it pays for sh*t.) Should I take the chance and go out with a few of them? Or am I better off holding out for someone in my own age range who hasn't quite surrendered his ability to play and have fun?

Summarize the given text in a few sentences.
<bot>: 40/f finding 35-45/m dates incredibly boring for the most part. Getting lots of notes from 25-35/m. Want to date towards developing LTR. Should I consider dating younger guys?
