30 something ladies and teen guys?
-
Any lady here in such a relationship before?
-
No... and the mere thought of it makes me wanna puke.
All my hair's standing now. Brrrr... yipers!! -
how creative of you to come up with such a topic!Originally posted by Chewbacca:Any lady here in such a relationship before? -
How about changing the topic to:
For guys, what's the age gap limit if you have a relationship with an older lady?
For ladies, what's the age gap limit if you have a relationship with a younger man?
Although age is most of the time an arbitrary number, it does make a difference, doesn't it?
The constraints of life, society and mindset... -
Age gap for younger guys I would say max 11 months if not it feels like I am dating my younger brotherOriginally posted by EricDraven:How about changing the topic to:

But... but... age does not equal maturity!Originally posted by elindra:Age gap for younger guys I would say max 11 months if not it feels like I am dating my younger brother
Bad example: I may be 54, but I still behave like I'm 45! -
I know that age does not equal to maturity.Originally posted by EricDraven:But... but... age does not equal maturity!

It is more of a set perception more than anything else
Younger guy = Dating younger brother

I have dated a lady 2 years my senior... but that was that...

Faced any major problems which is peculiar to such a relationship?Originally posted by ilovemyrolex:I have dated a lady 2 years my senior... but that was that... -
Still no way.Originally posted by LuNAtIcfArKeR:ok so what if i am 30 but i LOOK 45?
Like I said, it is more of a set mindset to me more than anything else.
Anyway this is just applicable to me.
I have friends who date younger guys. Biggest gap I have seen is 5 years and they are married. -
ya, she was always telling me off for this and that... you know, the usual, picking my nose, farting... etc. Felt like I was being mothered. I got fed up.Originally posted by EricDraven:Faced any major problems which is peculiar to such a relationship?

But younger women also do that... My ex, 2 years younger, nagged at me non-stop...Originally posted by ilovemyrolex:ya, she was always telling me off for this and that... you know, the usual, picking my nose, farting... etc. Felt like I was being mothered. I got fed up.
How about other stuff like salary, committment to marriage, families and friends? -
Am i supp to weep.. or am i supp to sob?
-
nothing about salary, cos i was drawing a decent wage then. We didn't talked about marriage (i was 28 then, she 30) she was focused on her career.
Nothing abt families and friends either. Guess she was sweating the small stuff.Originally posted by EricDraven:But younger women also do that... My ex, 2 years younger, nagged at me non-stop...

I guess a 2-year age gap probably isn't that big an issue, compared to say 5 or more years?Originally posted by ilovemyrolex:nothing about salary, cos i was drawing a decent wage then. We didn't talked about marriage (i was 28 then, she 30) she was focused on her career.

now i've gone the opposite. my gf is 8 yrs my junior. another set of challenges.Originally posted by EricDraven:I guess a 2-year age gap probably isn't that big an issue, compared to say 5 or more years?

Personally, it's difficult to relate to someone too young.... especially at my age, not very impressed by childishness or cuteness in a guy
In fact never had a relationships with a younger guy so can't define age gap. If he had a mature, compatible mindset, then maybe there's a chance.Originally posted by EricDraven:For ladies, what's the age gap limit if you have a relationship with a younger man?

As I've said, age is mostly an arbitrary number, it's all in the mind!Originally posted by ilovemyrolex:now i've gone the opposite. my gf is 8 yrs my junior. another set of challenges.
Age is a deterministic variable whereas love and feelings are much too random and unpredictable to factor in age! Ok, this doesn't make a lot of sense...
Wish you all the best, ilmr...

let me just say... if we can 'click'... can communicate... age would not be a very big problem to me... the rest of the stuff can slowly work it through...

How about a guy 5 or more years younger than you?Originally posted by Estee:let me just say... if we can 'click'... can communicate... age would not be a very big problem to me... the rest of the stuff can slowly work it through... -
stuff of wild imaginations.
For ladies they like to think they will have a young buck to control who will listen to them also younger man is like a brash rebel without a cause makes older women feel excited to be younger again hahaha....
For guys mebbe is a male ego thing, mebbe a challenge of manhood if you can bag(or bed) an older women, mebbe she earns more so the young guys imagines somebody to subdisize extra pocket $$$$ and get free laid hahahah ..... also there is something perverse in having an older gf mebbe stems from school days of boys fantasizing over an older and prettier teacher hahaha ... mebbe younger guys need a teacher .. hahahahahah...
But ahem too many differences in interests so rarely do such relationships work out in the end
