Aaron, I took a look at your profile, you are 20 years old, do yourself a favor and stick to a gal your own age. You have a lot of growing up to do. Take time to live life before you get into a relationship of any kind. You have nothing to offer anyone until you know who you are, get to know yourself first.

You won't have to ask this question, if you knew yourself. Age gap, really depends on the persons involved. Different strokes for different folks.

Age Gap? Well it depends on what the person is willing to accept. You have to look within yourself to see if you can really deal with your conscience, or that the other person activities would be the same as your own. Can you handle an active younger person? And will that person be able to love you enough to stay with you? Each person deals with it differently. It will depend on the person

why wouldn't a person be able to love me enough to stay with me? because I am older? that sounds like a stereotype you might have, if that was directed at someone who would be the older partner, I mean.

In my experience it is more often the older partner that breaks up with the younger. For me, anyway, it was because of a lack of depth and understanding, lack of maturity evidenced by a consistent inabilty to take responsibility for his actions, decisions and their negative consequences.

I believe after one has reached a level of emotional maturity, then age is just a number, have known several couples with large gaps in their age, and they have very successful relationships, my dad was 14 years older then my mom, and they made to death do you part, 39 yrs of marriage.

My experience has been that I connect better with someone of my own generation.

I don't like asking a man his age, so get close enough by blurting..."do you like talking heads?" at some point during the date. laugh

I think too many people include themselves into issues that have absolutely nothing to do with them, that's what I think.

Exactly my point. lack of maturity on either parties. depending on what your willing to accept. Two questions. One... Lets say the person is younger than you would you be able to handle a younger person in mind, body and experience? Two, lets say that your the older one, would that person be able in turn be able to deal with your set ways, aches, pains? Its just a choice a person has to consider. Some women think a younger man is what they want in bed and in activities. But in reality a man wants a more experienced woman to show him what he needs to learn. Its just a choice to make and needs to be considered.

You may want an older woman but don't be too hard on yourself if they don't want to date someone who looks like their son.

For most of my relationships they've been with older women, one was twice my age when I was 20...The thought that the reality of what a man wants is an experienced woman to show him what he needs/wants to learn is quite honestly perhaps the most ignorant thing I've heard about the older/younger relationship mentality.

The idea that it is simply sex related is preposterous...And the same can be said for anyone under 21 getting into a relationship with anyone. As a matter of fact all of these otherwise senseless and worthless interpretations of what a older/younger relationship is based on can be laid to claim at any age for any other age, same or otherwise.

They're just largely biased assumptions based on little to no information.

It's the main reason that I think people should stay out of other relationships...Going wild with assumptions based on personal experience over someone's own personal experience tends to create rifts in relationships that would otherwise be just fine.
