I think jealousy/maturity is a big part of it. Guys in their 20's tend to think they "own" their girl, but later in life we can appreciate our women as individuals.
She was 23 and I was 32 when we met. We've been inseperable ever since and nothing but death will ever part us.
We talk about everything and we allow each other to be our own individual and have our own thoughts/dreams/fantasies.
I wasn't like that when I was 23! I wanted a woman that was going to be there when I needed her and leave me alone when I needed to do my thing.
I see that now with a coworker. She's 20 and can't understand why her 21 y/o boyfriend wants to go out with his buddies and do his thing without her. He's starting to look at older guys that are ready to settle down and not play games...
