Age differences between a couple ... Does it really matter? Posted: 1/14/2007 2:08:59 PM
It only matters to the persons involved. Age is only a number. True age is measured by how you act and how you feel. Just because you are "X" age doesn't mean it is time for you to all the sudden change your lifestyle from being anctive and fun loving to sitting on the porch in a rocking chair. Being active keeps you young or at least young at heart. Each couple has to decide this on an case by case basis. I have known some 70 yr old that do sit and do nothing, and act and look old.;and I have know 70 yr olds that do not look their age, and live a very active life; no sitting in a rocking chair for them. The only problem I see is that in extreme age differences, it is hard to have very much in common with each other. What can a 20yr old have in common with a 40yr old? (besides sex) I know of one case in which this was the case, and the 40 yr old said it was very hard to have a conversation as their interests and life experiences were just too different.

What's up with young guys coming on to older women? Posted: 1/13/2007 9:01:26 AM
I have age restrictions on my profile and I still get these; it is as if the young studs (they think) can't read. Seeing a picture of a bare chest does nothing for me. I go for what is inside not outside.

Age is only a number so don't pay any attention to it. You are only as old as you feel. Instead of worrying about age, concentrate on the things that are more important - his personality, his likes and dislikes as compared to you likes and dislikes, his character and life philosophy. I was previously married to a man 7 years younger than me and we had no problem with communication. We both felt the same about the important things in life. I worried that he would have a problem with my age but he said it didn't matter. In fact he never knew how old I was. He would ask on my birthday how old I was and then he forgot. Age is irrevelent if you are compatible, unless there is an extreme difference; then you wouldn't have anything in common thus you also would not be compatible.
