More of a relationship hurdle---a 20 year age gap, or 1000 miles??

I voted for 1000 mile difference being the bigger hurdle though. Long distance relationships just seem to rarely work out.

I don't know, I would LOVE to get with Madonna or Paula Abdul and I'm 33 and they're 57 and 54. That's if I were single of course.

I'm not sure if they look great today, but they still did as of fairly recently. At least in my eyes they did. They were some of my first crushes and I still think they look good now.

Michelle Pfeiffer is another one I used to really like when I was young and just started to become interested in women, which was an age younger than most boys haha. I've looked up some recent pics and time hasn't been quite as kind to her. But I wouldn't push her away, not too sure how recent her pictures are though. You never see her in hardly anything anymore.

I've done 1000 miles before, just once and only for two months. It was hard, but I knew it would only be for two-three months before hand.

That's also why a woman who is older than college age is way more valuable than a brand-new Lexus.

And a tight jackhammer-ready adventurous non-jaded adorable college dude. And a dude older than college age.

I mean that's the whole idea.

Which of these two scenarios would you find to be more of a hurdle, in terms of making a relationship work??

1) 55 yr old woman and 35 yr old guy, who live just 15 minutes apart?

2) Guy and girl who are the same age (mid 30's), but live 1000 miles apart?


As for myself, I think the 2nd situation would be harder.

What's say you?

I know a few couples with 20 year age differences, and they make it work. 1000 miles apart - no.

Ever get the feeling that some people just need to get out more?

I see it all the time. People can be in a relationship with people MANY years older than them. If both of the people agree to be in the relationship, I don't see what the problem is.

What would be really hard is a relationship between a 55 y/o woman and a 35 y/o man who live 1000 miles apart.
