I am a twenty year old yound lady, who happens to be dating a gentlemen 29 years older than I am.
Now of course people will have their opinions about the enormous age difference, but I believe many people lose sight of the bigger, more important picture. Which is that we are all human. Though some of us come years down the line than others, we ultimately still live, breathe, and bleed the same way. If everyone would take a moment and eliminate age out of the equation and recognize the ood, bad, ugly, indifferent qualities about a person.... they, too, may find happiness in the arms of someone much younger or older. The gentlemen that I am seeing is a God-fearing-man above anything else. His morals are in line and he has a pleasant demeanor. Of course you may be thinking, at 49, this is where his mental state should be. But in all actuality, I know men his age and older who still runs around in the streets chasing women... I selfishly prefer someone older in the ssense that they have lived their lives, and isnt interested in the late night parties or hanging out with their buddies until the sun rises again....
Several years ago, when I was 35, I dated a guy who was in his late 40s. He looked like he was 30 though. Great shape, athletic, good looking, etc. It was fun but we broke up because our lives were taking us in different directions. Regardless, I never shut out the idea of dating older men, if I have things in common with them or if there are mutual goals that we share.
I like guys who are a little younger (but not too much younger) than me as well. I dont' think I'd feel comfortable dating someone who was in the 18-23 range, though. I would hate to be labeled as a desperate cougar or something like that!
Please explain the rationale for that post, meh... please...
Didn't know if you knew. That's all.
