Treat Her With Respect

• Older women usually know what they want and don't appreciate trivial problems. They may be more laid-back than younger women with varying topics, but it is important to be thoughtful of her needs and presence. A woman who is treated with respect returns the respect, therefore strengthening your relationship.
  
  

Be Open With Her

• Honesty and openness is key in maintaining a relationship with an older woman. Being open about your intentions not only earns you more respect, but it helps you find out what her intentions are as well. Older women know what they want, whether it's a casual relationship or something long-term and meaningful, so there is no need to beat around the bush with things.
  
  

Don't Treat Her Like Your Mother

• Although it isn't always the case, some guys tend to get comfortable with the concept of an older woman taking care them. Do you expect your older girlfriend to cook your meals, do your laundry or perform other tasks that your mother ordinarily does for you? If so, you could be projecting the wrong message to your new romantic interest.
  
  

Don't Brag

• Sure, it seems cool that you're dating an older woman, and some of your friends may be totally jealous, but it isn't nice to brag about your conquest. Dating an older woman is a delicate process and she is less likely to put up with it than a younger girl who hasn't had the life experience. Dating an older woman means you are partaking in an adult relationship, and adults don't brag about their bedroom antics with friends.
