All I Can say is anything past 30 with 10-20 years difference really isnt such a big deal.
But then my past experience isnt something that most people are used to.

I was in a 6 month relationship with a woman twice my age.
Im now 27.. but when I was with her I was 21 at the time, she was 44... no I didn't stutter.

It was the kind of attraction you find in a person that is inevitable, something so strong that everything else that comes into play is irrelevant in comparison.

Her daughter was only 2 years younger than me, and I went for her mother lol.

She hesitated and was fighting with her own morals for a time but eventually gave in to inevitability, she fell in love with me as much as I did her.

However being 21 and still living at home with my parents, secrecy took its tole on me and I also inevitably there was no where the relationship could progress any further, So as much as it hurt I had to end it and now were still friends.

BEST SEX EVER! so she said :P and I agree.

Drop everything you have concerned about in regards to age difference like it matters.
the older you get the farther the age gap doesn't matter.

LET yourself be happy with it and move past the fact that time degenerates our bodies.
Hell im still the same person I was when I was 23 and im not about to change my tastes in women or limit myself on age just because my body is physically aging.

Im still chasing after 20 year olds and I dont see anything wrong with that, nor should anyone else.

I dont think people of your own age would think your a freak. I love nothing more then cuddling and some sweet kisses.
In short, I dont think your a freak

I myself prefer men my own age. But i see nothing wrong if you find somebody younger and you both like each other. After a horrible week i had something really funny happen to me. I do get approached by younger men on this site, today an 18 yr old guy contacted me and i had to write him back because it appealed to my bizarre sense of humor. I told him i thought it was very nice of him to be interested in an old chick like me. haha. But i am already involved.

Great level headed rational discussion!

I wonder how rational it'd be if it were about men dating women 20 years or so younger

hmmmm oh yes please.................. but i draw the line at 20 years younger! most of the guys i have dated of late have been in their middle 30s - they are fun, ambitious, interested, intelligent and gorgeous! but when it is all said and done anyone that can turn me on intellectually will be just fine no matter what their number is.........!!!

My husband was 4 years younger than me, and I've dated quite a few guys that have been 4 to 5 years younger throughout my life. People have called me a cradle snatcher in jest at those times but if the two people are happy then what else matters. I agree with JingleBells that 20 years might be stretching the balance a bit, but you never know until you're there I suppose.

RE: Post 83 with the reverse question.

My brother dated a woman who was 18 years younger at some point (she 21, he 39) She was absolutely gorgeous, and he said she was intellectually compatable as well, and they were happy for a time. Everytime I chatted with her I myself found that she seemed very young, not lacking in intelligence but kind of still working out stuff that seems sort of obvious by the time you get to your 30's. Naive or something like that? But he said I couldn't make a fair assessment because she wasn't herself around me because she was intimidated by me. And it's fair to say that only the two people in a couple can know how it is to be part of that couple, and an outsider can only ever assume and guess from observations. None of my business anyway, although I admit that I couldn't resist the opportunity to buy him some Barbie colouring in books for her to use when she visited. (Oh c'mon it was a joke! Besides this is my brother who tricked me into standing on a bullants nest when I was 2, sold my bike without asking me when I was 15, when I was 18 told my boyfriend's parents that the reason the dog dragged his genitals around the yard was because I taught him to, and who once responded to a letter that arrived for me when I was 24 and still overseas by writing back to the friend and telling her I'd been put in an institution for the criminally insane. You know, all the stuff brother's do in the name of fun. ??? I love my brother, truly I do.) But I digress, apart from the Barbie colouring books dig, I was just happy to see him happy. I know her parents had serious issues with it though!

me personally i cant do it..i dont even speak to young ones.. and i mean younger than 28 and im 33.. i just cant.. i get this ewwwyyyy eckkkk spit spat argghh shivers down spine shocked pukey feeling at the thought.

but men in theyre younger 20's are diff to men in early thirties.. they have a very different mind set.. a 30 year old has lived.. been there done that.. had some failed relationships.. casual encounters.. he is at an age of where he knows what he wants in life and women..thru trial and error.. to a point of course..

if thats u.. then go with it.. also its all about whats right for u.. does it feel right? then thats ur answer.. does it feel wrong? then thats ur answer.

when u get up in the morning and put on ur clothes, is it about what u want to wear to make u feel good or other ppl.. do u care what other ppl think..if not.. why now with a man.

If you found a good one, you should go for it. Believe me, the older you get, the harder it gets to find a decent partner who does what he says and is not a liar.

I think age is a state of mind . If the guy is everyting you are looking for in a partner go for it ,sure there will be knockers but they are not living you r life. Go for it and be happy ,isn't that why we all joined this site . I wish you the very best of luck .

er... k.

Anyway, age is often a power thing, where an older man has power that is attractive to a younger woman. A more mature woman no longer needs to rely on the power of another and has different needs.

Long story short, if you're into him and he's into you, go for it. Who's to judge you?

There can be some issues, though, if your relative ages mean you're at different stages in life, like... you want different things out of life. If you want to settle down and start a family and he wants to go out and party all night, for example. Or he's saving for college and you want to buy a house.

Obviously all this is a fair bit in the future but stuff can come up.

My previous partner of nearly 5 years, was 9 yrs older than I, she didn't really look it, nor act like it, sporty european kinda girl, the only concerns I had was when my mum asked how old she was, but in the end it didn't really matter, all worked out, yes we split up, and went our own ways, but we still keep contact, and are friends, so I dont see a problem

If the age difference doesn't bother you, then you shouldn't worry about what other people think.

Seriously though, I kind of think its just as tragic to see a far older woman with a young bloke on her arm as it is the other way around......makes you think she must have pots of money or something!!

Mmm...I like older women too. Alright, I'm horrifically young, but damn it, most of my friends are 4-5 years (at least) older than me.

To me, older women seem a lot more secure and stronger. It's a horrible generalization, but most people my age seem to be a bit too frivolous and not really my type. Guess I'm a bit of an old soul huh?

I'm a bit of a hopelessromantic. love to make people laugh. I don't live in the past and hate drama. Theres enough of it on the TNT channel. I keep an open mind and don't judge others. Hate game playing. Just speak your mind. Trust has to be earned on both side to build a friendship. I love to cuddle and get along great with kids. I'm a good listener and communication is a must. Actions speak louder than words...

younger guys are awesome ;) especially in my case as i seem to have so much more in common with them like music, clothes, stuff i like to do.... am i immature? probably lol but i also look and act younger than my age, while still being able to behave like a sensible grownup when the occasion arises. i have been with a couple of older guys (both 5 years older) and felt much more awkward and uncomfortable with them than the young ones and had not much in common with either except motorbikes. i would however draw the line at guys less than, say 30, so as not to look ridiculous lol

personally i think the younger you get the guys, the less damaged they are likely to be... i've generally encouraged women to go for the younger guys..

i always think the answer is the same whenever this thread is brought up... so I'll be saying it again in May
