I made the mistake once of marrying a man that was 5 years younger than me. No more little mamas boys. I prefer my age or the older, experienced man. That's the only way to go.
But how old were you when you got married? When I was 25, it was no big deal to date a man that was 30 but probably to be with someone who was 20 would seem young to me. I think that once you are over 35, to date someone five years younger is not a big gap. Definitely being over 45, a man five years younger is nothing.
At the age I am now, I'd rather be with someone younger than older. What I am thinking is that the older a woman gets, that statistic about us living on average seven years longer than men comes more into play. So being almost 50, to date a guy that is 55+... well at this point in life these guys are looking and acting much older than I am. And that would make me feel older sooner than I need to. When I am 60, I wouldn't want to invest love time with a man that was older than me, not unless he was extremely fit and had genes for long life.
Are you serious about teaching a football team yoga? I can't imagine those macho-wannabe jocks doing yoga unless their coach forced them to (or be off the team). Good luck rejecting all that testosterone.
I am serious, should I be frightened?
I'll be there to increase their range of motion and flexibility. It's not like we're going to pop up into some backbends and handstands.

I was in my early 20's and he was 19. Too young I guess for him.
Being 49 now, and my s/o being 52 is good. If I were in the dating scene again, dating someone 5 years younger would be okay but I can't imagine going below 40 or maybe even 45 for a serious relationship but for a sexual relationship, a few romps would be okay but I'd still rather be with a more mature, experienced man that knows his way around for the long run.
I guess when I was younger, it was somewhat of a turn on to be with a younger guy so I could be the teacher but I find that the older ones are more willing to learn and actually enjoy and understand sex a lot more.
I think age is more a number and my second husband (now late) was 24 years older than me. It can work and to each his/her own but this is what works for me.
Ok ladies, I just want to know if there are any older women( 10 to 15 year age difference) would be willing to have an on going sexual relationship with a younger man?
I am not asking for myslef(LOL) I am asking to see if women do this.
REPLY: Using of one another for temporary sexual gratification is wrong. Even if you have permission. Human Beings are more than just animals in the forest and they have responsiblity, dignity, intrinsic high worth. Dont be fooled by the out of control culture and absurd philosophies such as Pond Scum to 206 bone Human Being (macro-evolution) to justify such wrong behaviour. I used to use others till God got a hold of me and changed my heart from being a self centered person. Regards.
I'm not going to just have sex with anyone to just have sex, so I'll have to alter my response a bit. In dating and all that means, I would not ever date a younger man of any age. I prefer slightly older to within 10 years.... experience and maturity. Not my cup of tea for a young one, now and never has been.

A former student and lady-friend of mine is a yoga and pilates instructor. She acquired the nickname "Queen of Pain", which has a double meaning but the most relevant one here concerns how she worked her students - hard.
Just like taijiquan can be taught as either a New Age wimp-dance or as the martial art it originally was, yoga can be taught soft or hard. The name escapes me right now - what was that trendy style a few years back? Where you performed it in an over-heated room? Seemed like a yoga boot-camp.
Correct me if I'm wrong, Moonie, but isn't there plenty of precedent for teaching amateur and pro athletes yoga? Something rattling around in my head tells me I've seen articles about this before...as well as the benefits they gain.
The tough part is making them sit up and take you seriously at the very beginning. If you can manage that, then they'll be putty in your hands.
Just some thoughts...
