What people? Your parents? Friends? It's your life. If they can't accept you being with someone that makes you happy that's their problem.

flowerforyou "BEING ANYTHING OTHER THAN YOURS IS LYING TO OTHERS AND YOURSELF!!!"I'm not shouting,Just emphasised what's good for all!If that is what you like it really doesn't matter what others think.Whose happiness are you going for, yours and who you choose to be with or everyone else?Just remember in my world a Commitment means a "lifetime"the way its ment to be.That's the way i was raised anyway,its not the way morals and respect is today!"Dam* shame!!drinks Good Love&Luck

You know it depends...you cannot control attraction sometimes....do not be like a puppet to what others say....we have a mind of our own so its up to us who do we take....they are just giving you their opinion i guess....(wow,,,i advice others while in my own i cannot even apply the words i say..)...

First, just because the man is older doesn't mean he has money or that he is willing to spend it on you, because the older the wiser. As far as what other people think about you, so long as it's not your parents who might disown you if they think it's a bad decision on your part, I wouldn't concern myself with anyone else's opinion. Having been in a 12 year age difference relationship once myself, I was 19 he was 31, he told me when we first got married that the generation gap was too wide for our relationship to last, but I was young and in love and stubborn enough to think I knew everything. Our marriage lasted only 5 1/2 years because he was right. As I grew older, so did he... and I wanted to experience aspects of life that he wouldn't allow me to as his wife. He was old school and wanted me at home just for him, and he took care of me financially, I wanted for nothing. But when I wanted to get a job to have my own money, he got upset and accused me of wanting to leave him for another man, even though he knew I was faithful to him. Needless to say, my youthful intent to have what I wanted led me to ask him for a divorce so I could grow up independently. I broke his heart but he relented and gave me what I wanted. And I learned a very valuable lesson from that short term relationship... that age, if it is too wide apart, can make a big difference, because the two people are from different generations and might be so extremely opposite in everything that matters that even love isn't enough to keep them together in the end. My story may not be like yours, and I'm not saying for you not to get involved with an older man, I'm just giving you food for thought so you can understand there are real deficits in May-December romances, it's not just about what other people looking on may think.

What's
your gut instinct telling you? What does your heart want? It ain't just
older people who can be rich. There are a few in their twenties who are
pretty well off. Mainly men in their mid-twenties. Even if my own
parents didn't like who I was dating, I'd still decide for myself. I
would be in less contact with anyone who tried to smear our chance at a
good relationship. I'm not saying cut off contact with them altogether,
but who needs people controlling their own relationship? If they were so
demanding on having their own relationship, then why should you be any
different? I don't find it very fair. It seems a bit controlling.
flowerforyou. I do pray that you've picked a man with a nice enough
personality. As it will make all the difference ;)

Don't see anything wrong with it...But age difference makes a huge difference,cos is of no good to having a man that is old enough to be your grand-dad as a lover.. Unless you prefer being a widow in no time..

I don’t see anything wrong with it. Many people believe a large age gaps will cause problem because they may not relate to the same things but I think everything boils down to how well a couple communicate with each other.

A man that is old enough to be your dad as a lover maynot be the best. Some older men been in several previous relationships and some of them have no money and broke down and not active.

Just how much older "older men" are you talking about; five, ten,
twenty, forty years?
