wmw999 2,583 #3 March 31, 2003 Won't vote, because it's AN issue, not necessarily an overwhelming one. You have to look at the indivdual case. I dated a man 9 years older for about 2 1/2 years when I was 19. We eventually moved our separate ways, but it was a lot of fun.

lummy 4 #5 March 31, 2003 depends... depends a lot on the maturity level of both parties. I've lived with women who were A) 9 years older than me and b) as young as 5 years my junior. Both worked, and age wasn't an issue. Personal rule is to never date anyone under 30, course my rule also includes having kids and having a job too, but that's another story [sigh... edited for clarification ;) Personal RULE..... I will only date women who are over 30, who have kids of their own, and are self sustaining thru normal employment channels Semantics shemantics..... :)I promise not to TP Davis under canopy..

kevin922 0 #8 March 31, 2003 QuoteYeah, I'm just wondering wether or not I should kick my own ass. because if it was my daughter I'd hunt the guy down. Rock the Vote I don't think age is as much of an issue to me as maturity. I've yet to find someone younger than I that i not only got along with real well but could see myself actually dating because of their maturity. Everyone i've seriously dated has been at least 4 years older than I. Now don't get me wrong, i've had some fun with people my age and younger but not "dating" seriously.

HEhehe... luckily, I won;t have that problem cause my daughter is going to be locked in the closet from the age of 13 to 30 for uhmm... SECURITY reasons... I'll be more concerned about getting her out of the house when she's 30, I won't care HOW old the guy is...I promise not to TP Davis under canopy..

chachi 0 #10 March 31, 2003 The girl I am mesmerized by is 20 and I am 28. I do not believe it is an issue if you are on the same wave length as far as your goals in life and at what point you plan to start achieving things like kids, marriage and such. This is after coming out of a 7 year relationship and 4 year marriage to someone the same age where we did not have the same goals, or interests. ~Chachi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ladyskydiver 0 #11 March 31, 2003 It depends on the individual's involved and their maturity levels and where they are in life - i.e. looking for a commited relationship or just out "playing".Life is short!

ChileRelleno 0 #12 March 31, 2003 My wife and I are 8 years apart, 20 vs 28 at marriage, maturity is the only issue... Heck, down here in Alabama the legal age for marriage is "14" with parental consent, I'm not kidding.

Tee 0 #14 March 31, 2003 I think in some relationships (including a past one of mine) it can be an issue. When one person moves on to a new period in their life, as one does as they get older, and the other person is hasn't, this can cause problems. ie: someone in their 20's and always wanting to go out while the other is in their 30's and looking to settle down with a family etc. etc. Tee Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vallerina 2 #20 March 31, 2003 Okay, this is me practicing for my female version of Loveline I'm going to start up.... It's only an issue if you both aren't in the same "place." If the 28 yr old is ready for marriage and kids, while the 18 yr old is ready for kegs and flippy cup, then it really won't work out. If they both have similar ideas when it comes to house/marriage/kids/commitment/etc it could work, despite the age difference. It seems that relationships work out best when neither have a frickin' clue! There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NoShitThereIWas 0 #21 March 31, 2003 I think age is just a number. I know 49 year olds who are more fun than some 20 year olds and 30 year olds who live their life like they were 75. Everyone is different. Having been married to a man who was almost 14 years older than me, at first the age difference was no big deal but then over time it did start to become more of an issue. He was a skydiver and a pilot which was cool but he had already been there done that. He was less into doing "stuff" because he was in a different stage of his life than I was. I was just beginning to go here and do that. It became apparent over time that our age kept us out of sync and that our goals in life were different; me still being in my 20s and him in his 40s. A lot happens in between and if you do have a big age difference just realize that you may be in different stages of life. As long as you both are flexible, understand and can deal with it, its all good. In retrospect now I think I am going to try and date people closer to my age. But I think maturity, personality, attraction and lifestyle have more to do with compatability than age itself.Roy Bacon: "Elvises, light your fires." Sting: "Be yourself no matter what they say."

jmpnkramer 0 #22 March 31, 2003 Just live the life and see where it goes. Sometimes it can work and sometimes it cannot. I hung out with an 18y.o. when I was 28. She was a whole lotta fun. She was in college and I Military stuff to do though so we ended up just going separate ways. I prefer more mature women though personally. The young ones are definitely fun though.

SkyDekker 1,465 #23 March 31, 2003 I find that in many of these discussion the story goes something like this: At first it was not a problem, but then we grew apart. I think that when the difference in age is around 8 years or more there will invariably be age related problems. You just end up in different stages in your life. Off course there will always be the exception.... just my 2 cents Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jessd 0 #25 March 31, 2003 I agree with Tee and Vallerina. I used to think that age was not an issue - until my last relationship ended. I was 18 and he was just about 24 when we got together. We were together for almost 6 years and even lived together for 3. Everything was actually really great for a long time, but, he soon wanted to settle down and all that (which I did not). We just grew apart and found ourselves at very different places in our lives. I felt that by staying with him that I would be missing out on a lot of life experiences and that I would be keeping him from living the life he wanted at that point in time. So - before I blab on about that forever. It does matter in some case and some it doesn't. In the end it really depends on where each of you are in your lives right now and where you think you will be in the near future. It's hard when relationships end because the people involved are in different places in their lives. Either way best of luck to you.
