Why do all these middle aged men on here want to be friends with a girl half their age?

It's kinda weird.

I can't speak for other men, but I have female friends as many as 13 years older and 44 years younger in the real world.

I often don't know the age of online friends, ever, as I typically never meet them in person. Of online friends I have actually met, the greatest age gap so far was 9 years younger.

I reply to anyone who PMs me on SW. I never ask women for pics who have never sent any. A few have sent at least one. Most send none, and that's OK since we will most likely never meet, anyway.

Some of the younger women on SW really need friends they can count on. My friendship never has any strings attached to it. My only expectation is that they never lie to me.

Even some of the women closer to my age or older need reliable friends.

As for dating, I have wanted a family for decades, so I seek women young enough to have children, and ideally old enough to have some wisdom to teach them along side me. I've given myself only 4 more years to have biological children of my own.
