Every girl is different.


George Lucas is 68 and his partner is 43

68-43= 25

George Clooney is 51 and his gf is 32

51-32=19

Russell Simmons and Kimora Lee were 17 years apart when they were together. He's 54 now and she's 37.

Some of you may think an older man is "creepy" for wanting younger women but it's certainly not uncommon.

I'm a very in shape man with a good career and bright future, I'm almost sure, I'll be the Clooney or Lucas type. Makes no difference what any of you think as long as the two people in the relationship are happy.


Enjoy yourself Hitman!



PS- I'm 38 and I have 23y/o's approach me. I gladly accept their names and numbers.

Yup, you are still a puppy.
You will find in a few years that these girls will start to irritate you.
My wife and I have a 15 year difference between us. I am 52 and she is 37. We met when I was 33 and she was 18, we married when I was 41 after we had spent years apart with little contact between.
We have a lot in common and have a few interests apart. Sometimes the separate interests are enough to drive you crazy.

^^^^This. Bottom Line: Don't buy in to social stereotypes and commonly accepted rules. Life is short so chart your own destiny.

When your 30 the 3 year age gap is nothing. If you really think about it there are probably people much older that you would throw out your age limit for. I bet there are many 20s women would have no problem seeing there favorite over 40 actor crush- ie Depp, Pitt, fill in the blank.

I'm 38. The youngest I would go would probably be 30. I dated a few guys in their early 20s within the last few years and it seemed that we really didn't click much.

As for oldest...I think the oldest I would go would be around 45 or so. But I would want him to have the zestfulness and youth of someone in his 20s or 30s.

My ex-husband was 12 years older than me. It wasn't uncomfortable but there were a few generational differences with that age gap. I very briefly dated a guy 18 years older than me but the age difference got to me very quickly. He was young, and hip but still, old enough to be my father, and it felt uncomfortable. I couldn't foresee a future with someone who was starting to talk of retirement planning when my career was just underway. We were a match in many respects but the age gap was the biggest factor for me in breaking it off.

Good points. Nobody even aknowledges the age differences when it comes to stars. Clooney could be dating an 18 year old and many people would not think it's creepy. Same thing with the actresses and their boy toys.

Then theres always the percieved age; A Depp looking guy could pass for early 30's instead of close to 50, so if you looked like him you could be dating a 23 year old and nobody would think its creepy.

I've dated as young as 27 and as old as 54. I'm 50 (look late 30's). My preference would be about ten years younger.

I'm 26. Honestly at this point, I'd only go a few years older or younger. Older than that and we'd just be at way too different points in life. I am so grateful that I ended up marrying someone only a year older than me, so that we can experience all of life's firsts together. I've written this before, but it was great that we got to experience graduating from college and finding our first jobs together, figuring out how to live on our own in our first apartment together after we got married, buying our first house together, going to to Europe together for the first time, etc.

I'd be sad if my SO had done all those things already and wasn't nearly as excited about them all as I was. And if he hadn't done all those things yet, I'd wonder why someone 10-15 years my senior was so far behind me in terms of life plans and goals.

If a big age gap works for you, great. But I was much more attracted to someone close in age in the same stage of life.
