Topic: relationships- does age make a difference???? | |
---|---|
Age matters depending on what you want. Apparantly ladies over 35 are less fertile then younger ladies, so that's just the first thing one has to think about :) Of course age matters, what you are forgetting is true love trumps every other card in the deck! |

For me age always mattered. Never wanted to date someone that could be young enough to be my son. I've never wanted to date someone who could be old enough to be my father. |

Dating someone older than me is no problem. But, too much younger can get a little iffy. I wouldn't date someone younger than 30.

I am younger but, she is a wonderously loveable wench. I mean serious GRRRRRRRRRR. You are not under 30. I agree that love trumps all. And, if I fell in love with a guy under 30 than I would just break down and buy a Nintendo console and we'd live happily ever after. |

I agree but it shouldn't be all about money and top-notched jobs! It should be on a person who can deliver a heart to someone who needs it! In other words, materials shouldn't matter...its the heart that counts and somehow, we lost that because we gotta be with the rich, cold blooded type people! Right now, Im looking for a woman who can see me as a mature 23 year old man who wants to be her rock when she cries, her lover, companion and best friend! I may be too young for a serious relationship, but I know how to treat a woman than most guys that are older than me, no offense! LOL but hopefully you find happiness My ‘Bringing home the Bacon” thread was, my roundabout way of saying that I’m looking for an older version of you..so yes, age does matter to me :( |

I guess it depends on the person,
To me 12 years really isnt that big a gap.. But then if my man was 20 years younger than me, I would still love him, it wouldnt have been my choice but really you dont have that much choice about who you love, it sort of just happens. So blow everyone else and just be happy. |

its all emotional age and compatibility and we should take each person individually,,,
that being said, as a mother, I dont just consider myself but my family unit and how it will be affected I couldnt date anyone born within a ten year period of my oldest child, out of respect to him, which causes me to have a minimum age of 30. I also wouldnt date anyone more than a decade older than myself simply because I have been there and done that and as time passes it does make a difference in the relationship when one person has already been through experiences and struggles that the other has yet to even fathom. I prefer to have a peer compatibility where we are likely to be at a similar point in lifes journey. |

Five years ago I met and fell in love with a man who. at the time was 43. My daughter was 37 and I was 57. He was closer to her age than mine, it was never a consideration for us and I think it was because my daughter understood and embraced the love he and I shared. She adored him. |

Well I have known Tea for a short time but I have learned she is an amazing lady! Through our chats I know what she wants and she has found it!! Age only matters if it matters to U and in this case I think they have both found every thing they want in a soulmate!! Tophat seems like a fine man and I for one, wish them the best in life!!

For me age always mattered. Never wanted to date someone that could be young enough to be my son. I've never wanted to date someone who could be old enough to be my father. Wait till your my age and you will think differently. |

In our family, the family dynamic involves family roles though. Anyone I were to be involved with would be potential husband material and therefore a potential father figure. For that reason, I could not expect such a relationship with my son and someone who was young enough to have gone to school with him. Everyone has a different family dynamic though. I would have a parent/stepparent type relationship within my family unit so it would be important to me to be able to reasonably expect the kids to see them as a parental figure. |
