I read that Celine Dion's hubby has been cheating on her in their marriage .. also when they married she was an 'unknown' he got her as a child and "molded" her .
She is one of very many children (maybe she never got her father's attention as a child??)
BTW , He was married when he 'dated' a very young Celine. | |

That's assuming a lot. Hmmm...I wonder if he yells out, "WHO'S YOUR DADDY?!" during sex?? | |

Posted: 1/26/2008 6:07:10 PM | | I think 18 is too young for anyone to get married regardless of their age difference. I really dont think anyone should marry till their mid 20's by that time you have had enough time to discouver who you are. I'm 39 yet I still look like I'm in my 20's, I had a 18 after me last summer and though sorely tempted I just couldnt bring myself to do anything. I usually date younger women simply because the ones my age think I'm cougar bait or they simply cant keep up with my active lifestye. Once past 25 or so I dont think age difference means all that much depending on the individua people. | |

Posted: 1/26/2008 6:14:07 PM | 18 is way to far to get married BUT if the girl loves him even though he is 40 then i dont see the big deal.
I know its a massive age gap but if there in love then i don think it matters. | |

Posted: 1/26/2008 8:14:02 PM | A) Why is it any of our business who marries who? Next are we going to be posting about gay marriages? Please. Let's not go down this road again...
B) Have you ever thought that she loves him? Yes, people under the age of 30 are capable of love! I don't know the specifics of her case, and neither do you. No one ever knows exactly what's going on in someone else's relationship so why don't we just leave it to them?
C) Y'all can stop sh itting yourself over the whole age thing. It might not be because he's insecure, or she wants a father figure or any other 'excuse' you want to throw at them. Maybe she just likes older men? Maybe he just likes younger women? MAYBE, just maybe, it has nothing to do with age at all. Someone's age shouldn't be a problem unless it makes the people in the relationship uncomfortable. And I have a feeling that most people don't care what you think of their older/younger boyfriend/girlfriend/fiance/husband/wife.
D) Cutting her single life short? Missing out on dating? So are you saying that no one should get married until they are too old to date or have experienced dating nightmares? Seriously...
You know what I say?
LOL @ dis topik. | |

And stop picking on people you don't know, you are old enough to know!!!

Posted: 1/29/2008 1:51:45 AM | How sad is he not to want a woman the same age as himself.
She has not lived yet and when she does, he is going to get hurt, sadly - unless he is a control freak who has found someone to control.
Hope she has good family support through this relationship, maybe her dad will be the one to go to on this one...
what is it about this older man with younger women and younger men and older women? I don't get it, why not be with someone your intellectual equal, financial equal, and of course looks equal. | |

Posted: 1/29/2008 4:57:24 AM | | Without knowing the context of the situation it is hard to judge. Personally if I were a 40 year old man, I would have many reservations about dating anyone below the age of 25; there would be many differences in our outlooks on life given our considerable age gap. Yet it can be the case some women of this age are unusually intelligent, educated and mature. If an 18-year old woman had a great deal of moral integrity, intelligence, wisdom and maturity for her age, if I were 40 and from a practical viewpoint there were no formidable obstacles, I would not rule out such a relationship. There are some historical examples of such relationships, including the famous one between Peter Abelard (a great medieval philosopher) and his student, Heloise. But generally people of these ages would simply not have the maturity in various ways a 40 year old man would find necessary to satisfy his various needs in an intimate relationship, and vice versa. A relationship with a 22 year age gap would certainly be rare, and successful ones even rarer. | |

Didn't look like he attacked you in the post. Hmmm...sounds like someone doesn't like to be disagreed with, right princess? | |

Posted: 1/29/2008 9:49:15 AM | | How many 15 year olds get their panties in a bunch over the 44 year old Johnny Depp? Its not odd for younger ladies to be attracted to generationally older men. Have not seen too many over 40 women that are considered sex symbols by 15 year old guys. (Lets see Demi Moore and.....) | |

Posted: 1/29/2008 12:09:38 PM | From my stand point.. I think she needs to live life... first.. you are only 18 -- 20's once... then when you feel ready then you settle...
I found that being married at 17 that's all i knew I wanted... ohhh boy ... I do miss my party living single life years...
ON the other hand... maybe she is not the party type of girl... and this way she can still have freedom regardless of marrying him.. as long as the kids dont' roll in asap... she might have a chance to travell and do things that with babies are not the perfect thing to do... | |

Posted: 1/29/2008 3:56:44 PM | | I know a couple who got together when she was 19 and he 49. They moved in and are still together after 7 years. No, they are not married but neither are a lot of couples. | |

Posted: 1/29/2008 4:16:35 PM | | So what Steve, I can point out couples who married or were attached at that age, her being 19 the guy 30 ish, who are not together today, so whats the point? for ever 1000 failures there is 1 success? great odds .........I think you have a better chance playing Lotto. | |

Where do you get your stats from? By the way, if anyone knows the real stats, I'd love to hear what they are. And not some BS stuff like in the post I quoted above. Too funny!
PS. FYI, I think the point he was making was that everyone seems convinced that such a relationship is doomed for failure, but there have been success stories that people, including myself, have witnessed. You people just want to assume or to believe that this abomination (in your eyes) can't be for real. | |

Posted: 1/29/2008 5:43:36 PM | Thanks for the summation Professor Tick Tock, I assume now you've collected your Nobel prize now 
Were not talking about other cultures and arranged marriages, were talking about today's western society Jagoff. not yesteryear.
They have a name for people who like the young ones its called Ephebophilia, they (society) deems it a problem to give it a name.
Want to talk about bullshit why dont you tell us why its ok for 40 year old plus to marry someone 19 ? care to share your wisdom oh great one? | |

Posted: 1/29/2008 5:44:24 PM | All this concern over the validity of a lasting relationship is really quite comical. How many 18 year old females find their 18 year old male counterpart and live happily ever after?
Come on, folks. Let's a least give the appearance we're discussing reality. | |

You're pretty sore about me pointing out your idiotic post, aren't ya? I'll give you a hint: don't fudge stats and you won't be made to look foolish. Take a deep breath...feel better now?
Were not talking about other cultures and arranged marriages, were talking about today's western society Jagoff. not yesteryear. Actually, the relationships that I saw were between people that were born and raised in this country and it occurred in the present.
They have a name for people who like the young ones its called Ephebophilia, they (society) deems it a problem to give it a name.
Hmmm...another brilliant observation from you, mahogany. I guess since they gave names to homosexuals and heterosexuals, then they must be problematic to society as well. Ephebophilia is a term used to describe an attraction to adolescents, just like homosexuality is a term used to describe an attraction to the same gender. While it may be disgusting in your eyes, it is not a crime.

I'm not for it or against it. Could care less, oh not-so-bright one. I do love the wit though, I guess it stems from a lack of logic eh Slick | |

Posted: 1/29/2008 7:23:24 PM | ^ What's the matter, Mahogony? You seem to avoid commenting on the content of my posts where I point out another one of your many flawed statements. Too easy...
and a 18 year old is what???
An adolescent. Duh! My goodness, do I have to dumb it down even further for you? Just because society gave a term for this type of attraction, it does not make it a problem for society at large, does it? They give terms to many types of attractions, like homosexuality and heterosexuality. The mere existence of a term does not equal a societal problem as your "logical" mind somehow deduced.
I guess it stems from a lack of logic eh Slick
You would know, Mahogony. No one throws out wild statements like you do and then walks away from defending them when they are called into question. Keep up the good work!
Well...back to the hockey game. I can't wait to see what insights you have in store next! | |

Posted: 1/29/2008 8:39:56 PM | You're boring me now , and you missed the sarcasm Slick, must I explain everything to you Chico, should I dumb it down for you or say it slower you know S L O W E R
I got your point Sport ...about you couldn't care less either way? so what should I point out Professor? You're acting like this is a theoretical exercise for me or something, its not Slick.
And you think most adolescents are ready for the responsibilities and roles of being a wife, and mother, if so look at some of the threads of young married mothers on here looking for friends/talk email.
A fine example of ignorance and arrogance Tick tock, excellent job I might add. | |
