| Topic: Is age just a number? Whats your limit? | |
|---|---|

I am 37, and I have an amazing 26 year old wanting to date me...I just have trouble with the age difference. She tells me, "Age is just a number!" Is it really? She has not experienced the things I have.....But my gosh she is hott.... (((Jimmy))) for me 10 yrs or more is far too much... I cut my limit at about 7 yrs. There's a point where you just have nothing common to talk about if you go too much younger... If someone cannot relate to my era's of growing up I think we're kind of limited in having anything more than knocking boots.. but that's just me and yes, I've dated younger and that was my experience and final decision from trying it... Well, if you would just hurry up and come to Maryland I wouldnt have this problem!   I see what your saying and that was/is a concern...We are going to get a drink on Saturday and see how it goes...You know me, if its not not there, I'll just pay the tab...  Yeah I know... lol... Well, good luck with the date, you never know what can happen.. Lot's of relationships work out with larger age differences one side or the other... |

Seriously Jim, 10 years is nothing when you are adults. That's barely a 1/2 of a generation. No biggie. IMHO Joy  But again, younger guys are all I've dated for almost 5 years. And the ones close to my age .. pfft, just nothin there.

I also have a limit of older than me which is approximately the same and of course must not look like my father or grandfather in age no matter how young they might be.. but again that is "me" not what I think anyone else should do... |

If all that matters is how "hot" she is,what difference does her age make, as long as it's legal? You are clearly not looking at her as a person anyway. Where did I say thats "all" that matters?  So obviously the age difference was my first concern.... Your making statements like most on this site....Your own assumption...Read the OP...For you to make a statement of "your clearly not looking at her as a person?"....Seriously...get your head out of the gutter Whose mind is in the gutter? |

How am I to conclude that anything else even matters to you? And I like the diversionary tactics that you use when you don't like what other people say. Nice! |

She has not experienced the things I have.....But my gosh she is hott.... I think it all depends what you're looking for, O.P. [sorry, I haven't read all the responses here] Maybe you should be honest with the lady in question, and tell her about your reservations, re: not having enough, culturally, in common because of your age difference. It's possible you can both embark on a relationship, keeping in mind that there may be areas of interest for one that don't interest the other. It doesn't mean that you don't have enough shared areas of interest to help the relationship be sustainable, and I don't personally believe that 11 years age difference by itself justifies not exploring the possibilities. Good luck, whichever way you decide to move forward. |

Too much younger I think is just lust, what would you have in common with them, but 26 shouldn't be a problem i dont think thats fair to say. im 20 but all my friends are in their 30s. and the guy i really care about right now is 36. but i have lots in common with them. i dont think its age i think its maturity wise. i know a 32 year old man who asks like he's 12, but most people who know me say I act 30. So I think it can be more than lust for a much younger person if you have a similar maturity level and simliar interests. |

Honestly, I don't think you can go by age alone. I think you have to go by the person and by maturity. Good luck on your date and I hope it works out for you

I know you worry about starting something serious because of your daughter, but remember it IS just a date for the first time you meet her. If you can talk about the same things and are on the same page with how you see your life going. Continue. If not, Say thanks for the nice evening, and good luck in your life. End of story. I know this sounds harsh, but at least its the truth. OH, and my ex is 5 years older than me. And I dated for 6 months a nice guy that was 13 years younger. He was the one that couldnt handle the age differences in the end. I would pick anyone that can keep up with my life style. Regardless of age. but is at least older than my son. now that might be oookie. |
