18 year old girl marries a 40 year old man? Posted: 3/25/2008 5:53:24 PM | | OK read all these posts and i see both sides. In fact i have a daughter and i wouldn't want her to date a 40 year old guy if she was 18. However, the one thing i want for my daughter is for her to be with someone who truly loves her....period. If she is 18 then i've taught her well. if she chooses that guy and i see he treats her right and she smiles everytime she mentions his name, what more could a father want for his daughter? so I'd be torn with it being her father. Now this is going to be the kicker.....i have met a wonderful woman and guess how old she is? you guessed it 18. thing is a lot of women our age have these hang ups with men, they've all treated her bad, blah, blah, blah, my sweetheart doesn't have all those hangups. I don't plan on giving her any hangups either. I know people will look or maybe not. I don't look anywhere near 40 so i lucked out. It's not just about having a hot body to band just because she's young. i've been with 50 year old women with killer bodies however their baggage gets in the way. it's emotional baggage. so I ask you, is it that wrong? Now reverse the situation. A 18 year old banging his older teacher what do you think most people would say? yeah they would say, good job buddy you got some good experience. not as many people would bat an eyebrow over that. it's a double standard and personally i think older women are a little jealous. not all of them but some. they messed up and got divorced and are now out there wondering why nobody will stay with them. well we don't want all that baggage. guys don't hold onto emotional baggage like that. with an older woman it seems to always come out. with a younger woman you might get some immature jealousy but i'd take that anyday over an older woman that thinks you're like all the other guys when you're actually just a nice guy. if a younger woman falls for an older guy it could be actually the best thing that has ever happened to her if she finds a good one. yeah there's creepy ones out there but also good guys. so even though i agree with both sides, i think if both treat each other right, there's no problem with it. it could be a wonderful experience for both and who knows what would happen.....life happens. if you both discuss the pitfalls early on so no one gets hurt, there is no foul. and the women on here that are disguisted by the age gap, would you say the same thing if you're 40 year old single mom was banging the pool boy....i highly doubt it. You all would be like.....awwww.......she's so lucky. I'm glad she's happy. Exactly my point! | | | |
