Its Possible.... it all depends, your lifestyle, his lifestyle, does he want kids? e.t.c...ask him what his intentions are? sometimes its hard to get people to tell the truth of what they really want though...

Both of my Grandfathers died in 1983. My Grandmothers lived until '95 and '05. If I were a woman, I don't think I'd date a guy who wasn't at least 10 years younger than I am.

Anotherfishinthepond: The only time I ever see unusual colours is when a Moderator is posting... excepting your post just now. I don't think you should do it. If someone thinks you're impersonating a Mod, you could get yourself a permaban (having "fish" in your name is also a bad indicator in that regard).

I'm wondering what to do. I do like him, but don't want a brief fling. I'm looking for something more meaningful than that.

If you look for bad things, they are bound to happen.

I don't know if you have been on these forums too long or you have had some bad experiences that leads you to believe all men 10 yrs younger than you automatically are looking for a fling but if you are interested in him and want to pursue anything, you need to drop the negative attitude or you will end up with a short fling, the guy seeing your attitude and walking away.

Trust your intuition and stay in the moment. Don't use past baggage to cloud your judgment today. If you pay attention to reality and what is going on it will be obvious on what his intentions are. What do you have to lose? After a few weeks you see he just wants a fling so you learn how to better spot folks in the future and you may have some fun along the way. But if you block out all possibility you may never find out if he is a good catch. Life is risk, life is choice. Go for it, why not!

It seems to me that you have enough evidence to just go for it! Its your choice at the end of the day if you date the guy or not.. I still think life is to short to put these things off just incase it goes bad.. As long as you keep your eyes open for the signs you will be fine...

garnet73: Thanks for your reply I see what you mean if its only moderators who use text formatting.. Just to clear up there was no intensions to try and impersonate a mod (hence I asked if its ok!) as for the name.. Sadly I like this name so they will have to suffer that one! I will keep my text the same as everyone elses :) Once again thanks for your help!
