61-Year-Old UK woman, Laila Gledhill, is proving that “age ain’t nothing but a number” – like Aaliyah once said!
Gledhill proudly asserts that dating men in their 20s keeps her looking and feeling young, UK Mirror reports.
Her predilection for dating younger men
began after a failed marriage with her childhood sweetheart, Marcus who
was two years younger than her. They got married when she was
27-years-old, but they met when she was 17.
After 14 years of marriage, Marcus suddenly decided to leave Gledhill for a younger woman.
“He was my first love. We had known
each other since we were teenagers. But now Marcus was telling me he
wanted to leave me for a woman in her early thirties who was thinner,
taller and prettier than me. I kicked him out. Marcus walking out on me
made me really think about what I deserved in life and from men,” she
said.
A few weeks after Marcus left, Gledhill,
who was a 41-year-old divorcee at the time, met a handsome 21-year-old
army officer named David.
Afterwards, Marcus begged her to take him back but she refused.
“Sorry Marcus but I’ve met someone who’s younger than you and fitter than you,” she said to him.
Gledhill and David got married, but their marriage only lasted for five years, as his parents disliked the age gap between them.
After the relationship ended, she moved
on to 28-year-old Peter, who proposed to her. While they were engaged,
he cheated on her with numerous older women he had been sending messages
to via online dating website, ToyBoy Warehouse.
She subsequently broke up with Peter, and then joined the website, where she got lots of attention from younger men.
“When I joined, I was bombarded by
hundreds of messages and complements from young professional men. I
couldn’t even respond to all of them – they were so many! It was like
being in a sweet shop full of good looking toyboys. I decided to stay on
the website,” she said.
Gledhill is currently dating several younger men and is having the time of her life.
“No man over 40 has ever approached me. Dating toyboys has kept me looking young and given me a zest for life.
I feel like my appearance has stood still in time because of the way younger men treat me.
From my experience, younger men
treat older women with respect, find them infinitely more attractive and
genuinely enjoy their company.
And the sex is so much better.
Older men often have baggage and a
bigger belly. Why should I be with a sixty-year-old man when I can be
one who is twenty-four?”
Wow!
