I’ve noticed this among my female friends and among potential rishtas. Is it just because of societal stigma and what will people say ? Or is it because you think younger guys are less mature or less established or you think will prefer younger girls? That’s not true. A female who is older like 5-10 or in her 30s for a guy in his Mid 20s can be preferential for many reasons. They may have similar outlook in life, common interests and both have mature views on things. Both might bring something new to the relationship . If she has had past relationships like been divorced or widowed or had others she can have even a greater understanding of relationships. So they might not be as well established but if they are mid 20s they could be at least or heading in that direction.
so why do you think it’s the case that less are willing to even think of younger guys?

Sorry date is the wrong word but I mean like seek rishta from or look to marry etc in a supervised setting.

OP, are you going down the arranged or love marriage route or does it not really matter?

I would prefer the love route but ive been burnt a few times..last time was the worst. Then with rishtas my parents are trying to organise in order to make me interact more with female gender after my past its not been very successful. Think they've given up and maybe im not ready for marriage. I can't deny i have an innate attraction to a strong willed woman who has plans and will inspire me to greater action. So i'll say it doesn't really matter because i don't know how i will find someone.
Re: Why are older women hesitant to date younger guys?
There are many reasons why an older woman would pursue a younger guy. This is by a desi girl.
Why do some Older Women date or marry Younger Men
summary of reasons
Love, more equal role, may be better emotional and physica support, More encouraging, open minded, fun, ego boost , good for nurturing and a forbidden fruit by societal standards but Islamically permissible.
It is an ego boost to attract someone younger if you do feel that because of your age you are less attractive and you feel devalued.
Re: Why are older women hesitant to date younger guys?
Whatever, love and youth etc, may play a factor, but bottom line is that older women are getting slimmer and slimmer pickings when it comes to rishtas.
So, normally I wouldn't talk to a younger guy, but I'm open now to it, because they seem to be more normal than some of the guys who are older and still single. At least a 25 yr old doesn't open his profile with - and I read this today - "I have been divorced two times, and I am trying to finish my bachelors at this online university, and maybe I hope to get a job..."

Well i think it is good people are getting more open minded. Not saying all younger guys are gems out there but they tend to have less baggage and be more open minded on a number of issues. Why should someone rule out someone on something they have no control over like age?
If the middle aged guys want to chase 20 somethings based on superficialities of looks, why can't a 30-35+ woman, in prime of life, be attracted to a younger guy who is fit, works out and maintains his looks and personality?
That ad is just sad. At least put some positive in the profile and mention what you can offer her at least in opening statements rather than
