People have remarked i am good looking.

However since reaching 25 I have noticed a slight decrease in my attractiveness. When I got out to bars some girls who used to fancy me now take no notice of me. And even though my hair is still thick I can grow it shoulder length like I could when I was 16.

I read up that 14-24 age range is the peak of attractiveness.

Do you think now i am 25 my attractiveness is starting to nose dive?

I go to the gym, have a great diet and drink litres of water a day so take care of myself.

No.

It all depends on who you're looking for. Are you looking for 18 yr olds? If so they may or may not be interested in an older guy.

Personally I have always been attracted to men in my own age group. So an 18 yr old guy is just gonna be unattractive to me. I don't even ogle men who are under 25. Just not interested. 14-24 as the most attractive age range? Attractive to whom? Ephebophiles? A good chunk of that isn't even legal.

If it's a problem with initial attraction I'd look at clothing and hair style, I'd also look at what venues you're hanging out in, you may want to switch to one with a slightly older age profile to match your own.

Not necessarily.

I'm 32 & feel more attractive to others now than pretty much ever, largely in part because I'm physically fitter than I've ever been.

Also, sometimes age is relative to others' attraction criteria that are entirely beyond your control. i.e. I'm only attracted to guys younger than myself, so older is a turnoff. And for a friend of mine, he's only attracted to guys that are at least 40, so anyone younger is a turnoff. At 25 you may be more attractive to some and less attractive to others, same with 30, 40, and so on.

People don't have an expiry date and there are no set rules for what age is more or less attractive to others. It varies for everyone.

It's mainly women who have to worry about taking the dive after 25, not guys. A lot of women much prefer older men.
