I had a relatioship with a man-child 15 yrs younger and broke it off due to his age. It was weird that my daughter was engaged to someone older than I was involved with. Yes, weird, I know. It get even more weird, now we have a child, thats when his true age and raising them at the same time came to light...OUCH. Had to teach him how to feed this poor little child, no thank you. I wanted a relationship not another child to teach. |

LOL! I definitely feel your friend. My boyfriend of a year and a half is 21. I just turned 30 in January. I would have reacted the same way to him since he has the same comments as your friend's guy. But... I am pretty independent and alone as far as family so the only thing I feared was stares coming from people. Now, I must have made a lot up on my head because I realize that I do not look 30. But my boyfriend looks as if he is 10! Okay, that is an exaggeration but he looks very young. Now, I don't care. The family I do have has kept there mouth shut because I am very outspoken and plus they can see from my life and the prosperity I struggled for that I make some pretty good life choices compared to most. Alas, my fears come from within. I don't ever get too comfy in a relationship but this one is really bothering me. Though my boyfriend is dedicated and mature, he is still 21. I wasn't looking for husband at 21. I didn't even know what to look for. I had to learn by trial and error. So how dare he think he knows what he wants and will continue to want in years to come. But I find that even my own fears do not substantiate a break-up. Similar to what your friend did, it would just be unfair to him and to myself. So I am here, taking in one day at a time but I must admit that the long-term decisions, like lease agreements scare me a lot. So for now, everything is in my name. Good thing I make more money than he does or I would be in real trouble. XOXO! |

i think the most important thing that matters in the relationship is the compatibility between the partners...the age factor should hardly count if the couples click together... |

So you think you have problems, I am in my early 40's, and have fallen for a gut who is in his late 20's. We have not went on a date as of yet, but the chemistry is there, I mean really, it is only a matter of time, you can only avoid someone for so long. I say go for it girlfriend, if the guy that has been pursuing me for over a year was just 6 years younger than me, I would be jumping for joy. |

My age is 32 and the wonderful lovely woman that I am deeply in love with is 42 years young. I come from Asia- Malaysia and she is from Australia. She have 5 kids from her Ex which was stolen away from her in a nother country and she is still trying to get them back. She never had a real loving relation ship with her Ex and was abuse untill she had enough.
We get along real well and have a lot of things incommen. She have a great personality and she always know how to make the best of everythin. She is beautyfull in every single way. We met not to lolng ago and fell inlove fast and when you know that is the one you will know some how. I love her with all my heart and have her in my mind every single day. Now in Asia people are not too open about this but than again I can't be bothered about them cause it has nothing to do with them and no body can jugh or chose for me it's my life and hers to gather. In the late 60's my mom and dad also had a nother situation that was not too commen than where both sides of their family had dissaprove their relationship cause it was a difference of race..............Chinese & Indian. What ever they might have gone through they made it. They are still to gather to day after 35 over years. So who are others to say or jugh when they have not had the experince of sharing a wonderful time with some one that you love which is older, it's just age but what counts is what we feel for each other and it's not because of others. I have never been so inlove ever before and that happy. She brings the best out of me and we are so connected. I have dated younger woman and girls but never once any of them made me feel so love, happy, excited, possitive, crazy, wanting to give love and much more. Even sex was never that great till I met her, the best ever and it only gets better. It's because there is also so much love for each other and we are not afraid to love each other. It's very passionate, sensual, romantic, errotic, adventures, understanding , lots of kindness and tender loving care. My parents might not be that open about it yet but they have to learn to accept it cause it's my happiness and my life. They will undersant sooner or later but that does not prevent me from being with my precious princess. So if you ever had a chance to be with someone that you love please dont let any thing stop you. It can only get better if we let it. To my wonderfull Lady love who might be reading this I love you and I am crazy about you. |

Let me also begin by saying I am 33 and my bf is 27 and i have never been happier in my life. We've been together for just over a year.
Age is the most irrelevent consideration when it comes to true love. We never think about the age difference and it only come up when our parents or others make it an issue. What matters most is that we are comfortable with each other, respect one another and are true to ourselves. I think the age difference brings in a refreshing change from the mundane and statisical accepted norms and makes not an iota of a difference to a relationship in a negative. It all depends on individials and if you are as lucky as I have been, go for it! We plan to marry , I hope it has worked out for your friend too. Don't give a damn what people think! ITs your life and you need to live it, not others. |

Hi, Mark, Thank you for sharing that. I think that your girlfriend, like my friend, has been quite fortunate to find a partner with enough character to know and follow his own mind.
This age issue seems to color almost everything, not just relationships. People tend to put you into a box according to your age and, if you allow yourself to go along with that, it can be quite stifling and negative. My hero is the eighty-nine year old guy who goes off to climb tall mountains.
I like what you wrote 'It was my actions that determined my character.' and 'Sometimes you have to be pushed off the diving board to realize you won't get hurt.'
I'm very glad that you guys are together and doing so well.
Best Wishes,
Sonal Panse

First of all, let me say that I am 27 years old. My current girlfriend is 39. A BIG difference some might say, but when I met her, I thought she was quite younger than her actual age. And she thought I was older. As we talked the same phrase kept arising..."only if you were older". Not knowing of course, that I was even younger than she thought. So I responded by telling her our age didn't matter since we were only friends. She agreed, and we became closer. Feelings started to grow and we became intimate. She later found out my age and was devestated to find I was younger than she thought. She was so worried about what people would think. She got along with me fine, and we had an amazing time together. But she was worried about society's perception of her. So I responded by telling her that nobody had to know. So form there we spent more and more time together, and she started feeling stronger towards me. It was then that she realized that my age didn't matter. It was my actions that determined my character. And to this day she tells my age with no regret. Almost proud. Sometimes you have to be pushed off the diving board to realize you won't get hurt. |
