For me yes; age matters. I have never felt comfortable with more than a 10 year gap.

 Tony Randall passed away from complications from pneumonia in May 2004 following bypass surgery. The 83 year-old actor left behind a 33 year-old widow and two children aged six and seven. His widow has been active supporting the theater with the money that Randall left her, and she hasn’t spoken much about their relationship since his death. Heather Randall is now being more open about what went on behind closed doors with her elderly husband. She told Marie Claire in an interview that they had a regular sex life and that she wasn’t with him because she has daddy issues. Everyone had an opinion. “Did his friends think I was a gold digger at first? Well, I remember one or two women telling him he was an old fool . . . and I’m sure people said and continue to say things behind my back,” Heather laughs. “But I don’t hear most of it.” As for his real friends — Garry Marshall, Jack Klugman, Eli Wallach — “I don’t think anything like that ever occurred to them.” Heather is still very close to these Hollywood legends. “If they thought I was a jerk, I would think they would have dropped me like a hot potato.” Once, she read a blog that said something like, “[Heather Randall] inherited his fortune when he died — which was her aim.” “That kinda stung,” she adds. As for her friends, one initially tried to convince her that she was making a mistake, but a few years later, “she thought I made a great choice…”  http://www.celebitchy.com/8500/tony_randalls_widow_talks_about_their_50_year_age_difference_active_sex_life/ |

As far as I am concerned, age got zero to do with it. For me, compatibility is everything.
The only age I care about is on the expiration dates on the crap in my fridge. |

What I don't get are the guys who try to tell me age doesn't matter, after I've been specific about the age range that works well for me. I get that age doesn't matter to some, but why not try to find someone more compatible who also doesn't think age matters?

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. This is very true; sometimes the spouse who survives is the one you least expect. I never expected to be the surviveing spouse for twenty plus years. But the reality is most of us are going to need caregiving for a much longer and more involved period of time at the end of our lives and to ask a much younger spouse to give the best years of their life over and then have an extended period of time alone and have no companionship in the years way past the golden years is cruela nd incredibly selfish in my notion. Useing Tony Randle is an excellent example. You have a young woman who may not be struggleing financially but anyone who thinks that money alone makes raiseing young children with out a father, or grandparents, or even most of their peers who will die off well before she will is not and easy road to journey. My deepest sympathy to her. |

As long as you stay young at heart, active of mind, interested in life, and current with what is going on NOW, age should not be much of a factor...in fact, for those worried about being with an older person, you will find, if all of the above is true, that a good many older people, with far more experience, are much more open to new ideas and new things, in almost any arena, than some one that is younger. Don't write off age...experience counts for more than you think.

I think it matters at least for me the lowest would be 40. However I did date someone in their 30's and found her very mature. Side note Diana Shore was hot, very sweet and a great entertainer!

I have always and still get alot of attention from younger men. I am currently married to a man 9 years my junior. It was flattering to start with but after 6 years together, I have to say that I would prefer a man who actually has a clue what it means to be an adult.

Age is a funny topic on my end of things. I'm 31 years old and I've found that anyone female in their 20's is still in their party days. So for me it's complicated, not to mention everything else that's complicated.

My age matters to me. Sometimes in a positive way and at other times negatively. But if it matter to her then, obviously there is no match or mingle. Does her age matter to me? Not at all. Her attitude, desire, willingness, intelligence, and humor does. If any of those ebb due to age or circumstance, then again there is no match or mingle.

Most young women do not want Old men and most Old women do not want young men. this is probably true I think the 'norm' is for people to seek out those at the same place in their life experience as they are,,,, although, pickings are skim enough for people to kind of 'lower' expectations ,,,lol |

In my case, I've always dated (and married 2) women that were older than me. Never have I had someone younger than me. Not even at the same age.

I get that age doesn't matter to some, but why not try to find someone more compatible who also doesn't think age matters? So, if you met someone that was fun, smart, interesting, good looking, but was outside your age range, you'd turn down a date? This is why age shouldn't matter. |
