Older women, because of their experience, often have more wisdom, tolerance and self-assurance than younger women. Some men receive mentoring from older women, who have had more relationship experience and often understand men well. So, for you younger men who've fallen head-over-heels in love with an older woman, I've developed nine tips on how to enjoy your newly found romance: 

#1 Be a gentleman. An older woman wants to be treated with respect, like any woman does. While she might be attracted to your rebelliousness or youthful attitude, she still wants you to treat her with good manners. 

#2 Don't get ahead of yourself. Don't worry about the future until you actually might have one. Take your time and allow the relationship to develop. 

#3. Stay calm. You may be excited, but don't overdo it. Have fun and enjoy your dates, but don't come on too strong. She has some reservations, too. 

#4. Be charming. Don't underestimate how powerful your smile can be. Use it often, make eye contact, and keep the conversation flowing. Be complimentary whenever possible, and respond intelligently to whatever she says. 

#5. Don't focus on looks. Give compliments, but focus less on her physical appearance. She wants to be appreciated for who she is, including her intellect and style. Compliments like "That color is lovely on you," or "You look great tonight" are safer than "You're in great shape." 

#6. Have fun. Keep your dates simple and have a good time. Refrain from talking too long about any one subject without inviting a comment from your date. 

#7. Keep conversation interesting and light. Feel free to talk about anything, including your personal lives, past relationships, and love in general, but don't be the one who brings up the intimate topics first. Be wary of prying too deeply into her private life and secrets, unless the information is voluntarily offered. 

#8. Avoid talking too much about yourself. Keep your focus on learning about your date. Dole out the boring information about yourself. Punctuate your conversation with questions: "What do you think?" "Has it been that way for you?" 

#9. Pay attention! No matter how thrilled you may be about her, listening to what she says, watching what she does, and understanding how she feels are the most important things you can do.
