Older Women/Younger Men

[lynx]

Marriage is something for every couple to decide for themselves. But I can say this with confidence... every younger man should date an older woman at least for a little while. You won't regret it. Or if you do regret it, it'll be the cool kind of regret.

I think it all depends on the couple as to what they wish to happen in a relatinship. It the relationship is going to go the extra step it will happen with out warning.

I just wrote an article about this after having dated soemone wayyyy younger than me. Unfortunately he was a young wine rushing to be a vintage and needed another 5-7 years to soften and mature.

I'n still not opposed to dating younger, but they can't be full of BS.

when dating a younger person its always best to start of as friends first so you can see where that person mindset is at. some men say that they are ready to see an older woman and there not. i seen women get hurt in the process because of this. i suggest that you start off slow and if you like the way things are going cool but if not well hopefully you and that person can still be friends. i personally let the woman know up front what i am all about.

There was no fear in dating an older woman.I prefer to date older women, and for some reason I always have, even in high school. It seems that they are easier to get along with -- there is, for the most part, no drama. Older women know what they want, they usually are in a career, are financially secure and not looking for a man to take care of them.

I have dated - off and on - a guy who is 25. (We have been at this "date for six months, and then cool down, then date again", for a couple of years now. (I am now 41.)

We have had many talks about the age difference - which does not bother him at all. In fact, when we first met, he told me that he had always "had a thing" for women out of his age group, but had never dated an older woman. His said girls his age are very immature, materialistic - and bring way too much drama!

I admit I sometimes feel a little awkward, but I just chalk that up to typical girl insecurities that we all experience no matter what our age - i.e., I hate my hair, I feel fat in this outfit, etc.

Everybody handles the age difference thing differently. I am a stand up guy, I am not a follower, I don't care what people think, I am who I am take it or leave it.....I make no apologies to nobody. This is probably why me marrying a woman 19 years older than myself did not bother me in the least. She, well she was and is still excited that I am her husband.....she says I keep her young and she is probably right.

Me 46 She 65......been together 14 years and married 10.

Large age gap marriages do work and work well in many cases.

Age does not matter.If they have mutual respect, niche understanding and love for each other.

Age is a state of mind and a number is just a number. Do you find that you have alot in common? Do you enjoy each other's company? Do you laugh and love together? Do you really want a number to get in the way of that????

I have been with my husband 24 years and he is 16 years younger. I was the one with the age hangup then. I thought he was way too young but, he pursued me relentlessly. We had our first date on Valentine's Day and have been together ever since.
