Admin	Too young or too old? Posted : 9 Sep, 2010 12:11 AM I won't mention numbers here, but what do you think of a guy that is too young or too old for you? This guy is that perfect kind of guy but he is too young/too old for you. Post Reply

View Profile History	Too young or too old? Posted : 13 Sep, 2010 05:24 AM I never thought that age would be an issue, but it somehow is. All of the guys I have ever dated were older than me (1 to 3 years) but there was no particular reason for that. We were simply attracted and this is how it all began. Nevertheless I have been thinking it'd be cool to have a mature grown up boyfriend who would be like 5-10yrs older than me. So I met this guy, exaxtly 5yrs older than me, I was all bubbly and excited. After a couple of months it turned out he was not mature at all. Not to mention being ready for a relationship and commitment. I must say I was really disappointed to see that. Right now I am talking with this guy, he's exactly my age and we're getting along very well. He does seem self-confident and mature. So what I'm trying to say is that age does not really matter. Unless it's about a 30-year-difference. Well, I intend to enjoy my married life and have children so I would definitely think twice before dating someone in their 50s :nahnah: and also, considering where in my life I am now, I probably wouldn't date a guy who's around 20 or less because I would likely turn old grey and wrinkled before he's ever ready for marriage lol Post Reply
Tulip89 View Profile History	Too young or too old? Posted : 13 Sep, 2010 07:16 AM One important thing to think about is compatibility of life stages. In college/out of college works surprisingly well, but high school/college does not. Wants kids very soon vs. doesn't want kids for 5-7 years? Likely not compatible. Constant activity vs. too old for so much as a brisk walk? Likely not compatible. Post Reply
View Profile History	Too young or too old? Posted : 13 Sep, 2010 09:11 AM Hmmm I think compatible or not (outside logical thoughts) would be depends on the situation, relationship and effort of both spouses. I mean, sometimes with 15 years of differences, the spouse who is older may have the same energy with his/her partner. Have witnessed it with my own eyes, and there are few couples of this case. But yeah you did make some good points there :applause: Post Reply
riveroflife1 View Profile History	Too young or too old? Posted : 13 Sep, 2010 11:18 AM I would rather date someone older than me by at least 4-5 years. For some reason the younger ones like me. but like the others said, it doesnt matter about the age, if he is the ONE, then he is the ONE. Post Reply

View Profile History	Too young or too old? Posted : 13 Sep, 2010 04:32 PM Age is a number...I would consider no more than 10 years younger or older...but ima leave it to God... I have met some younger Gents in person, ( not from this site or any other ), that are very confident in who they are and where they are going in their lives...maturity, integrity..etc...etc...None of these younger men have I found to be Compatible in Spiritualty or Interests...so I couldnt and wouldnt consider they are the one I am to marry...We are just aquaintenses and some friends...nothing more... I have met older Gents, ( not from this site or any other ), and have found the same...So...since I have yet to meet the Gent for me and I for Him...I wont know his age...and it probably wouldnt matter much...xo Post Reply
View Profile History	Too young or too old? Posted : 14 Sep, 2010 04:26 AM Eh, about my last question, didn't mean to offend anyone, purely that question was out of my curiousity only. Is it like psychologial or anything.. :angel: Post Reply
View Profile History	Too young or too old? Posted : 14 Sep, 2010 06:50 PM I think I would rather date someone who is within in my age group. Life comes in stages and I would like to be on the same stage with a partner. So, I would not date someone old enough to be my grandfather, my father or my younger brother. To answer your second question, I think women mature faster than men. Perhaps that is why younger guys may go after an older girl. Girls may feel the older guy is wiser, financially stable and mature enough for a relationship. Post Reply
Nocom View Profile History	Too young or too old? Posted : 27 Sep, 2010 04:40 AM Age is a funny thing. From my point of view, age is just a number. My experiences tells me that. I've met girls, 25 years old, that where much more mature than other women I've met, 20 years older. And of course we can be on different stages in life, but that does have to do with age in all cases. And I personally know couples, where the man is up to 30 years older than the wife. One of them have been married now for 34 years and they seems to be very happy. So what I am trying to say is, that we should not put our self in boxes in this matter. I also believe that it has to be with culture. In many countries it is very normal with big age differences. What will people say, and he is an old pig, and stuff like that is more common in our countries.(I'm from Denmark). Its a shame and I am sure many fine marriages where never made because of that. One of my best friends just married a girl, 24 years old. He is 45. And they are very happy together. :angel: Post Reply
