For the past month, I've been melting for a woman I've met. Unfortunately, she's less than half my age and it makes me feel like a perv.
I've been with younger before (10 - 13years younger) and it was acceptable (~in my mind~), but now I find I'm ashamed of my feelings towards her.
I'm getting close to 50 and she's going to be a whole 22 soon.

When is the age difference too much for you?

Post Script : I have no children so that has no bearing...

If they are young enough to be my kid or old enough to be my father, then they are too young/old.

I'm 49 and I found that I don't like to go out with men under 42. I prefer about 5 years younger and a few years older.

i'll date any girl over 21 be seeing you

If I had a 21 yr. daughter, she would be hearing it from me if she dated a man that was almost 50. I'm being honest here.

every body is different and unique

what works for one couple may not work for another

if it feels okay then do it. if it creeps you then don't

No women over 25, who needs to date old broads!

go with your guts ,, what you got in common with that much of a age difference ....


i should talk i 'm having a hell of a time with age and numbers ,, sucks when you have to face the reality of it

Im thinkin, 21 plus is ok. Was engaged recently to someone who was 21.. it wasnt age that broke us up, but maybe emotional maturity.. we had an AWESOME 1 year reationship.. very very HOT.. miss him so much. There are abvious issues that may get i the way.. hold onto your heart.. if u loved like I did u could end up soo broken hearted I cried for 4 mos after it ended.

ohhhhhh PATS! You better duck my friend!

If it bothers you, then I'd say that is your subconscious talking to you. If you can't get over it, move on. If it is based on other's perceptions, then that is something you have to deal with from within yourself..

It honestly all depends on what you are expecting out of this. If it is a fling... go have fun. If you are looking for something long term... think long and hard before you make a decision. Only you can make the ultimate choice on how it makes you feel.

Personally, I rarely date anyone younger because they just can't capture my mind enough. That and I don't have the will or want to "train" a puppy. lol

I prefer a man that is at least my age or older because they are usually a little more grounded, have enough life knowledge to keep my attention and are already well versed in the ways of the body.

maybe you'll find she wants you to meet her mother we all can use alittle help

When it makes you feel that way.

And when it makes them feel that way.

Well...it's like I've heard said before...when a hot little young thang walks by..."eventually, you're gonna have to talk to her". That age difference is fairly vast. How much would you have in common?

Awww... PATS!! You're breakin my heart!!

It's just a joke

when it exceeds 50% older or 25% younger
