Age does matter because with age comes maturity. How can I relate what its like to have a 20 year career to someone who has never had one? How can I relate to a 20 or 30 year old guy that because of age; my best friends are dying from heart attacks? How can I relate how age is affecting me and my body to someone who is 20 or 30 years younger? How would I relate to someone about the 70s when they weren't even born? I doubt very much that I would have much in common with a younger man that say has never served a day in the military or has only served a couple years. Sorry; but guys my age have a hard enough time understanding me; a younger guy would be way worse.
well its communication.... ok put it this way how would you relate to someone your age that hates war? or someone thats older but just drinks booze all day? or someone in 70s that never went anywhere and just stayed at home most of his life and hardly know anything ? see you only saying negatives not positives lollllllll ok now positives put it this way i was part owner of a business when i was 19 and owned a business too ,different people are different i also have lots of friends young and old from 19 to in the 90s don't mean i date them but i do know about health and life a lot , and the point i was making if a person judges why i say the word judge is ..........think this way,say a person never ever talks to a different age group cause of their age is that not judging that person ? because saying it won't work cause of age? cause if the person never ever tried ,they already judged that person ...... cause of age????????? right????? i know people have a right to choose who they want or don't want ,thats up to them but if a person never ever tried or don't even know a person and say oh that person is immature cause of their age ,then they judged them Judgemental | Define Judgemental at Dictionary.com
judgmental or judgemental —adj. of or denoting an attitude in which judgments
about other people's conduct are made. judgemental or judgemental. —adj ... *

Judge | Define Judge at Dictionary
judging ones character ..................so it is judging cause only reasons i getting is they immature of a age before they know the person so it is a judge lolllllllllll hope i explained it clear enough to you all biggrin laugh :thumbsup:


Communication won't work with someone younger. Somebody that lived the 70s may have not gone out but they can still relate as they were alive; not sucking on a baby bottle. I couldn't take a younger guy seriously. If the person is anti-war; why would I be with them at all? They still can't understand how it is to lose friends because of age? A person my age would certainly understand that. Actually in my experience; younger guys drink way more booze than an older guy because lets face it as we age; we can't drink as much. Also; how does a 30 year relate to an aging body? I am tired at the end of the day and a younger man wants sex; but I am say I am tired. As we age; our bodies tire more. How do I relate with aching joints or a sore back to a younger guy? How about menopause? How about when I retire? I can travel but sony boy still has to work for another 20 years. Seriously; you think someone wants that? Sorry; I see no point of dating someone that has little or no life experience. Bottom line; he needs to grow up or better yet date someone his own age that can grow with him. You want to call me judegmental; so be it but not dating someone young enough to be my son. I would be too embarrassed to even be seen with him. Besides if you guys are so mature; why don't you date mature women your age?
lolllllllll i date my age and other ages too depends on the person :) as for drinking your wrong my friend .............a new study has found that older adults who have alcohol dependence problems drink significantly more than younger adults who have similar problems. The findings suggest that older problem drinkers may have developed a tolerance for alcohol and need to drink even more than younger abusers to achieve the effects they seek.Researchers at Ohio State University found that adults over age 60 with alcohol dependence drink more than 40 alcoholic beverages a week on average, compared to between 25 and 35 drinks a week on average for those in younger age groups with similar problems...............ok now back to other your right why would you want to be with someone anti-war i was just showing you a negative thinking :)They still can't understand how it is to lose friends because of age? A person my age would certainly understand that. <<<< now that is just so wrong you saying cause if a person in 20s or 30s they would not understand if they lost a love 1 cause of age? you ever think some have lost lots by the age of 20? or 30? i know i have lost tons of friends older and younger death is not a age thing my dear :)ok next thing there are young guys retired my friend and travel more then you :) so all your reason are nothing ...maybe the joint pain lolll :) flowerforyou biggrin :thumbsup:ps oh the truth comes out ........... I would be too embarrassed to even be seen with him.laugh :banana: :thumbsup: :) my goodness my friend if you worry to much what others think then life will be more narrow in that way ,you should never worry like that ,thats just so sad hugsss:) :thumbsup:

We all know couples who have large age spans, I do anyway. It seems to me that 'society' whispers 'cougar' when the woman has chosen younger and has admiration for a man who has chosen younger.ohwell frustrated


Yes, very unfair.
your right bro i see so many dating in different age brackets and i think people should admire that , cause to many are narrow minded and never open up their horizon, and maybe if they did talk to couples in different age groups or see more they may think and open up but its their choice :) cheers thanks for your input :thumbsup:


Ah, I'm starting to get it. You think that because some date in different age groups, that everyone should give it a try. You have to realize, though, that everyone is different. What works for some may not work for others. Why should everyone try and be the same?
did i say that?lolllllllllll i said its "their choice" i notice you try and twist peoples words , or maybe you need to just think a bit more lolllll whoa IN my opinion i think everyone should do what they want but should not have such a narrow minded view or judge on a age before they know a person, its like a simple opinion rofl lolllllllllllll


What exactly is this narrow view you think I have?
lolllllllllll i don't really know you that well but from what i see its narrow to not open a horizon on age group in general or to judge a person by a age by saying i not dating them cause that age is immature before even knowing the person :) thats narrow too:):thumbsup:

I think we should just agree that only the two people involved are the ones' whose opinion matters. For this 55 yr old it is 50 to 60 give or take a year. Thanks for the debate fellas. I did enjoy itflowerforyou


Yep, agreed! I think that was cheer ups point and certainly was mine.
100% agree on that too its up to the 2 in love or friends ... i also agree that people that never ever take a chance in life can miss out a lot too :) cheers :thumbsup:

I guess what I don't get is why people get bent out of shape over others' preferences. Age is just one of these preferences.
LOLLLLLLLLLLL no 1s bent out of shape but i do see you love to start up on different people over nothing like just by that comment right there lolll i don't care who you chat to or when you do or what age either lolllll so may i ask who is bent out of shape??????????? rofl laugh :thumbsup:


Hey, no problems here. If you want to date women of all ages, go for it!


Sing, see here's what cheer up is talking about. He never said he wants to date women of all ages. He is saying it doesn't matter what age he or anyone else chooses.
I totally agree that we all get to choose. Afterall, I did choose older. I am just trying to point out that age is not the only factor. Wanting a family and financial stability play a major part if you are looking for a lifetime partner. If you are looking for causual dating than age will never be a major factor


And I think all we are saying is, it is different for every one. Age has nothing to do with finances. Some people it takes a while to have financial gain and others at a very young age achieve it.

Shouldn't we all agree that it is what ever works for them and not what worked for a few. That's all I'm saying. I don't want someone to think that dating out of your age bracket (there is no such thing in my book) is a bad thing necessary.


Absolutely. However, the original statement made it sound like anyone who was not for dating much older or much younger was being negative. My question to you and Cheer up would be how many successful relationships have you experienced yourselves with someone much older or much younger? You asked for examples from me of why it may not work so now I ask the two of you to provide me with examples that it does.
i asked you for examples? lollll where? or did i miss it ....well i dated older and younger ladies when i was in my 20s and young and old in my 30s i not a fussy person on age my friend cause i think life is way to short and people should not worry so much on age by the way my longest relationship was with someone that was longest age gap when i think about it lolllll flowerforyou waving :thumbsup:

28 years in a relationship with an age difference would qualify me as one who has personal experience and not just offering an opinion without having lived it


And you are right, that's how it happened for you.
Exactly. So when I say that yes I would not date someone much younger or much older it is based on life experience and not because I am narrow minded or a stick in the mud. So just as I would never say that no one should date older or younger, you and cheer cannot say that because someone chooses not too they are not open minded.
i not saying people who been through it like you have you already opened up your horizon , do you know what narrow minded means? ........breadth of view,and ...........lacking tolerance or flexibility or breadth of view..........Meaning of breadth. ... of
knowledge of the subject".....so how would a person know a persons if they never talked to the person? and are blocked cause of a age? thats called lack of knowledge or narrow minded and i never said you , i was talking in general people who judge people cause of age before they even know them its so sad lolllllllllaugh slaphead :thumbsup: its so simple point my friend:)

well thank you as long if the person is legal age ...i think they should choose who they like :) but its great to open your horizon on the ages too cause even friends or dating people can miss out on so much if they don't, thats all cheers :)flowerforyou biggrin :thumbsup:

:thumbsup: RIGHT ON BRO:) ... i kind of think you meant stick in the mud ? ......stick-in-the-mud - definition of stick-in-the-mud by the Free Online ...
Also found in: Idioms, 0.01 sec. stick-in-the-mud (st k n- -m d ). n. pl. stick-in-the-
muds Informal. One who lacks initiative, imagination, or enthusiasm also...........Urban Dictionary: stick in the mud
Someone who prefers to allow things of seeming enjoyment pass them by
Someone who prefers to "stick" (stay, remain) in the "mud".....also ......one who is slow, old-fashioned, or unprogressive; especially : an old fogy. .........but i agree on that too bro nothing wrong with saying that cheers :thumbsup:


So tell me, how does someone who has an age preference fit the above definition?
thats so simple to answer .......One who lacks initiative, imagination, or enthusiasm to even give others a look out of their age bracket :):thumbsup: cause some don't open their imagination or they just judge on age before they know a person or lacks initiative to even try , see having a preference of age is up to a person ,but judging a person by their age before you know the person is just wrong in my opinion :)think do you think everyone in their 20s is immature?

Age does matter to me. The bigger the age gap, the less likely we'll have much in common and the more likely we'll be at different places in life. I find that for dating, late 20s to mid 30s works well for me.
well everyone is different my friend some don't judge a person cause of a age before they even know them ,you may be surprised how in common people can be with different ages ,if you opened your horizon on different ages and gave them a chance , but its your choice ,its just a suggestion :):thumbsup:


You asked a question about whether age matters. I answered for myself. I wasn't looking for advice, though. I've found what works well for me. What works for you may be different.
well whatever works well with you is awesome but i was not giving you advise lolll i was giving you a suggestion ....i will help you on the two different meanings my friend see .....To give advice means to offer resolution to a problem by way of action. ....and this is not a problem for you :) but ...A suggestion, on the other hand, is the introduction of a new idea of thinking :) :banana: biggrin biggrin


I was just giving my response to your thread, not looking for suggestions. Thanks anyway.



That's what we call stuck in the mud.


Why? Because I know what works for me? Sorry, I'm not going to just change my mind about my preferences and what I'm attracted to just because a few people here don't like it. Cheer up was saying earlier that I was judgmental. Seems as though everyone else is as well. :smile:



Why do you think people think you are judgemental?


You and cheerup will have to tell me. Is it because I have preferences that I know work well for me?



First looks like I'll have to tell you gals what I meant by stuck in the mud. I was referring to someone who is so deep in their own thoughts about something that it is hard for them to let others express themselves without an issue being made. The other part to this would be giving advice to others and stating that they weren't willing to consider the same. To me that is being a little stuck or not able to accept or consider another view. It seems like when someone has a different view about dating the same people always jump in and build their camp. The problem comes when someone has a fresh or different idea of that situation.

I wouldn't go making a case out of something that isn't there though. I love the fact that all of you have your own views and opinions. It's what makes mingling rich. If you ever take me as someone who does not feel that way, please ask or send me an email. However where I get off the wagon is when people dog on others and try to suggest that their views are not valid or they are not aloud in someway to think the way they do, or making snotty remarks that look like they are in the wrong somehow.

Please make note that I did not say anyone was a stick in the mud. My comment was that's what we call getting stuck in the mud. Meaning not being able to bend or move.

I think I can speak for my friend cheer up and myself when I say we could care less about your personal preferences or ever wish to put you down for believing in them. I can't imagine where this thought came from or how others picked up that we would think that way. We were talking about someone putting down others rights to have a view, not your personal views and rights to them. We respect all views and were trying to state that, and hoped that these types of talks could be less judgemental and not more.
