"What did we learn on the show tonight Craig"? Even though several people have different opinions on any one subject the important thing is that you get plenty of sleep after laying out your clothes for school. Dear Craig & Jeff

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 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 :) 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 :) do you think everyone in their 20s is immature? Nope. I've dated men in their 20s. Some are much more mature than older men. Some are not.

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. 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 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 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 lolllllllllllll What exactly is this narrow view you think I have?

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 it 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

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 ... * o 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 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 :) ps oh the truth comes out ........... I would be too embarrassed to even be seen with him. :) 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:)

Again, right on bro! So folks are you calling 20 year olds immature? 20 odd years ago i would've said no...but that's 20 odd years ago, and i've learnt much between then and now. Enough to say that most 20yr olds are immature by a 40 something year olds standards. And if the 20yr olds don't like that...sorry bout it.

I don't think they would be upset with that or even disagree, because you said most. At the same time (based solely on what I've seen) I would say that most 40 year olds are struggling with maturity themselves.

Indeed...so an immature 40yr old hooking up with an equally immature 20yr old is a good or a bad thing?....and let's not even bring kids into that equation right?

2 criteria consenting adults

Kahurangi Joined Thu 04/26/12 Posts: 1970	Thu 05/10/12 12:51 AM
I guess we're not talking about an ongoing d&m relationship betwixt the 2 slightly less mature consenting people then?

mg1959 Joined Thu 04/05/07 Posts: 7872	Thu 05/10/12 01:00 AM
I'd like to add something here if I could. When I make these statements there not man vs woman statements. Maturity is an equal opportunity value. And, if I can even be this bold. I think that maybe (not always) women may just mature a little faster than guys. I was always surprised that I passed up a lot of my friends in doing adult things when they were still back in diapers it seemed. I had a serious career at 17 and even though my friends were working it was about getting laid and partying. Back then and even now I see a lot of young women who really have serious goals and some are already achievers of those goals by their early and mid twenties. But, from what I've been told they just don't want to be with a boy and they don't want to wait till those boys grow up. So for those gals you can't blame them for looking at a broader market of guys. I've also seen many gals marry these younger immature guys back in their twenties and now are forced to start all over again with a lot of baggage this time around. So I wonder what are these twenty and thirty year old gals supposed to do?
