Innately, your mind is already pushing back against the idea of dating a younger guy who’s still figuring out his career and life.

The underlying issue for this is tied to your instinctive nature.

You are already at a stage in life where you are doing well in your career and have a direction in life.

This means that you will have a natural inclination to gravitate towards a man who is either doing as well as you are in his career and life or better.

This is how you are biologically wired.

When you have already figured things out for yourself, it will be impossibly difficult for you to respect a guy who hasn’t.

As a woman in search of a compatible mate, you will be in need of security and safety in who you choose to date.

A younger guy who’s still figuring out his career and life doesn’t give you that reassurance of security and safety.

Given that he isn’t established, you are unsure of how things will turn out if you date him.

There is too much uncertainty.

When a guy is still figuring out his career and life, there is no guarantee that he figures it out.

This places you in a precarious position.

If you were to date this younger guy, you would be taking on a potentially monumental risk.

Meanwhile, you are the one who has to wear the pants.

You are giving him rides, paying for the dates, and helping him out with some of his bills.

This is a profuse amount of responsibility without a guarantee it all pays off in the end with him figuring it out and becoming successful in his career and life.

For an undetermined amount of time, you become his pseudo parent.

This is too much of a chore, especially for a woman who already has her career and life set.

With all of this in mind, you are better off not dating a younger guy who’s still figuring out his career and life.

To be honest, the main issue isn’t necessarily that he is a younger guy.

Any guy, regardless of age, who is still figuring out his career and life wouldn’t be compatible with you.

As someone who has already figured out her career and life, you wouldn’t feel any sense of security and safety in dating a guy who hasn’t done the same.

In time, you are bound to lose respect for him and grow a resentment.

No woman in your position wants to take on the role of caregiver.

Furthermore, if you were to date this younger guy, the security and safety you bring into his life could work against you.

This is where he takes his foot off the gas and lags in the effort he is putting out.

Since you are the one who is taking responsibility for the relationship by giving him rides, paying for the dates, and helping him out in paying some of his bills, he starts coasting.

Next thing you know, months have gone by, and he is still, interminably figuring out his career and life.
