Personally I think maturity level is much more important than actual age. I've met some very childish 40-50 year olds and some extremely mature 20 something year olds. My dating age range is therefore pretty wide because you just never know by the birth year what you're really getting into. I get to know them as a person and judge whether we're compatible short term or long term by how we get along, what we have in common, and whether we're both heading in the same direction in life.


The maturity level binds everything...he can be in his late 30s, early 40s, maybe even 50s, and still be chasing potholes. But I think a lot of it has to do with his mindset, the kind of man he is or isn't. Truth be told there are some very esteemed 20-somethings in compassion to the mid-life crises men folk running around in my neck of the woods. A lot of older men in LA and Beverly Hills prefer a woman who looks like me. I guess I look young enough to make them feel young if I'm around them. That's one of the reasons they'd go there. Oh its fun to scare them away with my intelligence. I figure it weeds out the various prospects and for that I am grateful. There sure are a lot of immature "older" men out there. Best to keep the options open for my sanity. :tongue:

Age is not considered a big issue by most people older people tend to date younger people. For me I couldn't care has long as I love that person & that person loves me for me I have no problem. True love is what counts.

Age matters a lot. Both partners will have different views on so many issues & that will bring disagreements

I think it's about a meeting of like minds - age may or may not matter. It depends on the people involved. flowerforyou :heart:

I've been married twice, 13 years older and 12 years younger. Age means next to nothing to me. I'm more about the person they've become in the years they've been around. I do find that some age groups are more likely to be compatible but it's definitive. I do have this weird thing that goes on in my head when a woman is 17 years or more younger than me and so I shy away from that.

Driven the back roads so I wouldn't get weighed.
And if you give me

And wine
And show me a sign
Then I'll be willin

and if that don't mean nothin to ya then you're prolly too young for me

Age may not matter so much until you find out the difference in changeing pampers and having to wear them.

If you end up being the former for the later for a decade plus; and then alone for years; and no-one to truely commisserate with you when you are the later you will see the wisdom of haveing a mate that is a peer. Sorry if this explanation is graphic but sometimes what starts out pretty doesn't end that way.

What does age have to do with it? You SO could be involved in an accident or develop a crippling disease or any number of things that could go wrong. None of us know how long our health will last.

Here's another couple I stumbled across. Tony Randall and wife Heather. He was 50 years older than her when they married and they stayed together until his death.

I'm sooo sick of men old enough to be my dad contacting me!! Most of these men are looking for someone 20 years younger. Once the sex fizzes out out there is nothing in common!!!

My girlfriend is almost 30 years younger and although we've had our problems, they aren't age related. If a man was attractive, smart and made you laugh would you really turn him down because of his age? It's so rare to meet someone that gives you butterflys and you'd turn him away because he's mature?

This doesn't make sense to me.
