And rozey .. that rocks girl!!!! Congrats!

Thanks Fade

i've always been attracted to younger men for some reason ... maybe i'm immature and don't realize it! Just something about the young attitude, excitement for life and adventurous spirit (and of course the hot body) just does it for me, especially if he's hispanic!

well that's the thing saralo. I've got the same 'wild ride' attitude. Free spirit and all .. so it works.

And ya .. my kids tell me all the time how immature I am LMAO. And that when I die they will put on the headstone "she never grew up" .. great! works for me.

It all depends on how you feel about one another. I think if you enjoy being with one another, than it should not matter, right.........

I keep saying that I dont want to date anyone under 34 and over 45.. but i dunno.. it just depends on if you feel the connection.. I know someone who's 29, and someone who's 31.. and then older than 45.. and its just a matter of... do you connect with them... not the age...

Sounds like 99.99999% of us agree.

I've always had more in common with younger guys for some weird reason, I guess that makes me immature, too, LOL. But as long as the guy- or girl- is legal, I don't think it matters. Personally, I don't date guys who still have the "teen" in their age, like 18 or 19 or whatever, but I see nothing wrong with dating older or younger.

Son as long as you are both happy at present why care ! Age is relative. Also yours and her choice not anybody elses. Go with the flow, for now.

It's all good, I hate judging by age but, What about 20yrs from now? I guess if they can handle not having kids with me then it's ok ...I just worry about long term.

Peaches, I think that's something you have to work out before. Some guys don't WANT kids anyway, or would just as soon have yours as theirs.

And women don't age as fast as men. So the 65-47 yr scenario mentioned here before may be the case for her/him respectively, but many times it's not.

And again those are things you have to discuss .. a LOT.

was married for 23 yrs to my late husband...he was 11 yrs younger than me....it can work just fine

I have a question for fade to black about her 27 yr old boyfriend and age wasnt the problem he had other issues, If he were a 50 yr old man the question i would ask, would those issues still be a problem, to rephrase that if he were older and maturer would those issues be a realisic issue that a mature man would have

Mikey, hate to burst your bubble there but, Seems alot of times now The Younger Guys are more mature than the older guys...I wonder what happened...jmo
xoxoPeaches.

24 and 36.
That's great!
You're young enough that when she needs you to you can change her Depends.
Some of them older gals are hot until you get to my age. 12 ta' 15 years older than me would be almost Grave Robbing!

Peaches,

You have a good point, But If you are 36 and they are 24. Hopefully they are career minded and finished with college.
Sure they can act mature, but what happens when they decide they want to sow their oats.

Only becomes a problem if you guys make it one....to be honest I believe a good bit of age difference helps people to learn things in life....she can benifit to learn what your into and you likewise. Hope the best for you guys....good relationships are hard to come by so hold onto it if its good.

Well I forgot about that factor keeping me single, the women that are around my age are going after the younger men the women older then me are looking for men younger then me the women younger then me don't want a guy as old as me, guess I was born the wrong year!
I mean what is a 42 year old man going to have in common with a 19 year old girl? I was dating a 28 year old and we didn't have a whole lot in common just enough to keep it going for a few months then it burned out. anyways I do agree that age in most cases is not a problem it just depends on how well you get along. I would not turn down the opportunity to get to know a woman much younger then me and I have been attracted to women older then me. so yea.

age is just a number... i'd be more inclined to look at what you have in common, and not the year you or your partner happened to be born - they dont have control over what year they were born!

Age differences are a funny thing. I think people generally make more of a big deal out of them than is necessary. Who is to say what difference age really makes? I have met plenty of older people who act like children and teenagers who have it more together than people twice their age.

I am a little biased in this area because I have recently been getting back into the dating game and find myself gravitating towards older men. I am 22 and my last two flings have been with a 36 year old and a 43 year old. The last one is actually just starting... I met him through a mutual friend at a bar last Friday and we ended up talking and flirting and playing darts and enjoying witty banter. Next thing I knew it was last call, he was picking up my tab, walking me to my car, and there was quite a bit of heaving "making out".

I admit it was a little wierd when I realized he was 21 years older than me... that's almost my whole life! :) But I still find him sexy, intellectually stimulating, and fun to be around. We are walking that fine line between naughty and nice, and I find his attitude very refreshing. He was the one holding back, he is very sweet and wants to be a "gentleman", and he is insisting on a real date, but at the same time there is that wonderful sexual tension between us. At first I wasn't sure I wanted anything more than just a few fun encounters that could end with great sex. But our first phone conversation lasted almost an hour and a half and I find it incredibly easy to talk to and connect with him. He's only 3 years younger than my dad, but when I think about him as a person without the label of age I don't see any reason that I shouldn't continue to find out where this might go.
