    still on the topic about my divorce lawyer. when everything is over, is there a legal/ethical time period between lawyer/client to say for example if we got together? not exactly be involved but just even go out as friends? i just want to get these questions off my chest and come back to reality. i’m about to be divorced so i understand if someone says i’m confused and to just breathe. i’d like to date someone my own age and i don’t flirt with those who are younger than me. someone may look older but end up being younger than me. i don’t scope them out it just happens. do i attract younger men because that’s what men want? someone who’s secure about themselves, done with school, the teeny booper scene and settled down and knows what they want in life? could really use some answers to put things in perspective.

    Well, regarding your divorce attorney, there’s no mandated time period for you to wait before dating. I would just make sure he’s not your lawyer any more before you start dating since you’re already in the middle of divorce proceedings. If you were dating a lawyer and needed legal help, it’s not advisable to hire your boyfriend, but it’s not illegal. Where the trouble comes in is 1) if a client becomes a lover, and then the lawyer is liable for sexual harassment charges if you suddenly change your tune about how things happened and how his advances affected his representation, or 2) if you’re not clear headed enough to ask questions or make good decisions about your case because you keep picturing him naked.

    Got that?

    As for your attracting younger men, I really think you may not realize that you’re putting out some kind of energy that’s attracting younger men. I’d advise you to really take a good look at yourself when you’re out and about and try to figure out if you’re flirting without even realizing it, with these younger guys.

    The other thing, and this is the most important thing you have to remember, is that you’re the one who can say no to the younger guys you’re attracting. If what you really want is older men then the ones you’re getting, don’t say yes to the younger ones. Don’t be available to them. If they come on to you, smile — and leave. If you’re chatting up some younger guy and a really great older guy comes by and sees you, he’s possibly going to walk away seeing you “taken”. Make yourself available for the kind of men you want, by using your power of ‘no’ to the younger ones.

    Most of the guy I’ve known don’t prefer an older woman because they got bully with their friends. But my bestfriend’s girlfriend happened to be 5 years older than him. I asked him why she like that woman despite of their age gap. He answered me that older woman is mature enough and handled the relationship seriously compare on those same with his age
