I have a man interested in me..he is 14 years older than i am and only 5 years younger than my mother...
You say he's interested in you...but don't mention if you're interested in him...isn't that the real question here? And if you're not interested, then i would think you've answered your own question and the rest is irregardless.... | |

Posted: 3/26/2006 10:55:04 AM | | I dont date men more then 5 years older then me . They seem to be in a different place then me plus i like younger guys seems like the sex is better for me with a younger guy . It all depends on what you like. I am 40 and like guys n there 20 and 30 usually they and i think more alike,. The older guys think more like my parents usually. But an older guy may have more and be more settled there are good points to both | |

Posted: 3/26/2006 10:06:49 PM | | I met a girl when I was 45 and didn't know she was 20. And we still hit it off regardless because we were both adult about it. That's all that matters. | |

Posted: 7/14/2006 11:00:43 PM | | I dated a woman who was 21 years younger than me. It wasn't the age difference that ended it, I would have perfered that, but she was very intelligent we always had something to talk about, and she asked me out | |

Posted: 7/15/2006 12:36:01 AM | | Personally, I think he's too old for you. If I were to date a woman 14 years my junior, it would be for only one thing. You can't build a relationship based on sex. As far as others' are concerned, you need to do what makes you feel happy, and what matters most to you. Don't base relationships on how other people percieve you and a potential boyfriend. | |

I'm 46 . I date a lot of women in their early 30's. so what? Hit it!
At 44 I dated a woman 26 and one was 28. We never had a problem with age. In fact they remember me very well. | |

Posted: 9/8/2006 12:30:30 PM | | Well as a 46 year old all i can say is if you find him attractive and he presses all the right buttons then go for it....age is just a number. My ex wife is with a man of the same age difference and she has gone on to have two lovely children......so it can work. Good luck x | |

Are you looking for happines...if so then I say go for it. If you are just looking for arm candy then don't waste his time. He obviously is interested and if you are also then what's your problem. Age is nothing but a number and wisdom. That could help in the long run. | |

Posted: 9/8/2006 12:36:36 PM | I was 49 when a 29 yr old beautiful girl asked me to dance I was blown away and flattered. she instigated what was the best six weeks of fun we could ever want..Her parents were a yr older then me,, Her mom told her to approach me that first night. We all got along great...I felt young again.. But the reality crept up after a awhile...She had 2 kids... I never had any. She drank like a fish and I was a light drinker. I came to realize that we were in different stages of our lives and I would be depriving her of more kids (I'm fixed). And it ended amicably. I do miss her and she was so good for my hurting ego!  | |

Posted: 9/8/2006 12:50:11 PM | There are all different kinds of men out there and I am certainly one of them.
Let me explain by telling you what is going on right now in my life.
First of all when I moved into this area where I am now, I had no idea that there were not any available ladies here. Since last October there hasn't been anybody. Well a few weeks ago I a young waitress asked me why it was that I was always a happy guy. During our conversation we realized that we were both in the same situation with no other single people our own age to mingle with. With that in mind, we decided that we would become friends.
I had told her that I was too old for her in respect to romantic relationship but as friends, that would be great. Since then, She has invited me over to her home for coffee and conversation before she headed into work at noon.
Well she told me that she was taking her son camping for a couple of days and that she would phone me the night before they left. She forgot. I'm thinking, She's busy, forgot, or whatever. Right?
Well the next morning she phoned me long distance from a pay phone from the campsite to say hello.
Now I am starting to feel that she is starting to get confused about our relationship and possibly wants more.
Being all alone has started to take its' toll on me but there is no way that I could let this young lady become the laughing stock of the town for dating an old man such as myself.
Lets face it. I can sell my home and move on, but she would be here, left only to be ridiculed by the townsfolk. I just couldn't do this to someone. Besides, I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I were to take advantage of this type of situation.
So I feel that there is only one thing to do. That is to have a long discussion with her.
One that will open up her eyes so that she will be able to see things differently and provide her with some of life's' wisdom. You see, I am 53 and she's 31.
Friends only! For her sake. I haven't even given her as muck as a hug yet. Now I could be wrong but I just have this strong feeling that she would like more.
Sure I could take advantage of her. But why? For a few hours of sexual pleasure? I think about the mental trauma that this could cause her in the future. I'm not saying that it's been easy. Certainly I have my emotional and physical needs. But at what price? To tell you the truth, it's been hard for me to tell myself all of the logical reasons as to why I shouldn't enjoy myself at this opportunity and jump right in with both feet. I just know that it is not right. That's all there is to it.
Do you think that I am being stupid?
I am quite sure that there are many men that would jump at the opportunity that I am facing. Ten years ago I would have too.
I'm sorry for laying this on you as you might not agree with my way of thinking.
All that I'm saying is for you to think things out clearly first.
I felt the need to tell everyone with this simular situation to do what is right and not what feels right to the body.
Thanks for listening. | |

Posted: 9/8/2006 12:51:57 PM | I think, depending on what you are on this site for, you do the same thing with a 47 yr old man that you would a 30 or 35 yr old man. I am 55 and most people think I am 40 or 45. I looked at your profile and you are very attractive, but you did not list any restrictions. At least he is interested in a woman not a 20 year old girl. It seems we live(especially on this site)in a world of double standards. It seems to be all right for older women to go after young men, but not vice versa. Again, you are very attractive and probably if I live closer, I would have contacted you.
I wish you the very best of luck, but there is no good advice. Anyway, if he has not seen you in person, you might look different than your picture. Age is only a number the real man is in the heart, mind and soul. | |

Posted: 9/10/2006 4:38:36 PM | | I had the sameproblem once. I was completly creeped out by him. I tried honesty, He was to creepy to understand orcare. He kept comming to my house unannounced. So I did want a bi..ch would do. I started making age jokes. Like, your in the same generationas my parents,etc. He left me alone after a few jokes. Thank God he did. A few years later, I saw him as a patient on one of the wards in the hospital I work in. I work in a mental hospital. Guess he was more than just creepy. | |

Posted: 9/10/2006 6:10:17 PM | In my opinion age doesn't matter. I'm dating someone 12 yrs older than I am. It depends on the two people involved. It depends on maturity levels, goals in life, experience, things in common. The only bad thing is sometimes I have to put him in his place. He actually had the nerve to call me an old granny tonight! Pfftttt...he forgets that he should be nice to me ..I will be the one picking out his nursing home one day.  | |

it's only as awkward as you make it, if you're more self conscious as to what other people think, then perhaps you should re-think it?
I will be the one picking out his nursing home one day
providing one is awake long enough to pick one ..... pffftttt .... to you | |

Useless offal, they are.
We all need crystals implanted in our hands (like in Logan's Run....) that start blinking red when time's up.......;) | |

Posted: 9/10/2006 6:39:35 PM | | We have implants. They are called assumptions. We know we're obsolete and unwanted. We self-destruct. This is how the surplus dating population decreases itself. You would know about this if Dickens had written about it, but he never got around to it (he self-destructed first). | |

Posted: 9/10/2006 10:54:37 PM | Hey zgirl, I'm 48 and am dating a 35yr old woman and our sex life is very hot. I probably can't perform as many times as I could when I was 16 or 26, but I now know better how to satisfy a woman and I'm not in any hurry. I take the time to make sure she is satisfied. No, it probably won't be like having sex with someone your age... it'll probably be better!  | |
