Ladies, just wanted your take on this........
Posted : 17 Jul, 2014 06:07 PM

How far north or south of your own age would you consider going, in pairing with a potential mate?



After discussing this with a few members and giving it some thought, I've concluded that I probably would feel comfortable going 5 years north, 10 years south. But can that even be realistic? Considering the many issues that can come into play, what would be comfortable for you ladies and why?



*** I feel the twinge of the brothers wanting to chime in here(smile)lol!! Please fellas jump in any time!***

"What would be comfortable for you ladies and why?"



My answer to your question may be a little �relevant sis. With me it's a question of chemistry versus distance. My relation with a fellow i've met here is not limited by the space between us (distance)



We enjoy activities together, activities we've both desired to share together inspite of the space between us. The most humbling experience was when he confirmed my physical address so he can have material delivered this site of the world... He registered me with his bible school. This activity was in the top of my list of interests after I got saved, but just didn't put much effort in pursuing it.



When he invited/offered to register me on bible school so we get to know God better together, was just a fulfillment of a pending interest that has been awaiting to be pursued. That has opened wide a door of connecting, trusting and constant communication as assignments are submitted. If it hasn't been the question of the age difference between us, trust me dear sis, i'd move to his country. His worth the effort!



My answer to your question is in a question form,

"Inspite of the physical space between two people of opposite sex, what would make one decide to relocate to other parts of the world in order to pursue a relationship with the other?"



I by no means mean to change your post darling... Stay blessed!

I think it depends on the maturity factor and also how well the man has aged. Men is their 60s flock to me like bees to nectar and Im just not interested. Men in their 40s seem too young. idk....HA! I try to rely on the Holy Spirit to reveal things and to guide me. I say I try because sometimes my flesh nature gets in the way:laugh:



Blessings sister!

Sisygirl, I am thrilled that you've met someone you can communicate with on the level you seek(smile)! From what you've expressed in the past, it wasn't always easy for you to talk with someone that really understood your needs.....kudos to you my sister(smile)lol!! I pray your relationship with this person only draws you two closer to one another, despite the distance and age difference:glow:



As for your question regarding distance......like you said, if the brother shows enough interest and we truly want to make things work, then certainly I believe it's worth all the effort needed to come together! And no my sister, you certainly didn't change the post topic, but instead gave it an additional twist(smile)!! Thank you and God's blessings.



HIHA you are right, the maturity of the man in question would have to be considered! I've been blessed to have met men 10-15 years younger than myself, that if there was any "chemistry" between us......well I think you know where I'm going with this:hearts:lol!! And again I agree, The Spirit of The Lord has to be your guide in this important decision, thru and thru!! Thanks and stay well in Him.

When I first signed up here on CDFF, I had my 'limits' set for +/- 5 years. After having an ongoing email relationship with a man 20 years my junior, I have removed those parameters. . .:glow: . . God continues to work in mysterious ways, yes?

This is a good post,it keeps me wondering sometimes.

For me,I'm abit skeptical dating a guy younger than me,so I try to avoid by all means.

On the other side I wouldn't like to go too far.I would prefer 10 older,though I know it can go behond.

I'm sure my heart woulld never go for a younger person.
