We all know it always okay to date younger women as long as its not disgusting. But whats your cut off for dating older women? I'm 22 and dating a 26 year old. I know the roles are usally flip flopped. There are friends that tell me that I should do whatever makes me happy. And others that tell me that she is just getting thrills out of dating a younger guy etc etc Its only going on a month which isnt serious for most people but for me thats a very loooooooooong time I usually lose interest in a girl in like 2 weeks. So I propose the question would you get in a serious relationship when you were/are/will be/ 22 with a girl that is 4 years older? Thoughts??? And yes this is a an Early Sunday morning/just got back from the bar BBS thread. I look forward to checking this in the afternoon good day
A 4 year age difference is NOTHING. Age is just a number... and people wouldn't even blink an eye if the genders were reversed. People are unique individuals and the actual "number" of your age doesn't necessarily determine who you are best suited for. It shouldn't matter which member of the couple is older. guys: this is your subliminal message. Date older women. It's much better. Or at least be aware that there are some of us who would prefer them younger.
Biggest difference I've experienced was 3 years. I was 19, she was 22. I didn't feel there was any problem with it. How much difference would I say is too much? I don't know...I think it's all unique to the situation, but in general I'd say anything more than about 5 years would start to be a little bit of an issue every once in a while for me. That said, it all hinges on how old each person behaves and how they feel about each other, as far as I'm concerned.
I remember my English Teacher in highschool was dating a 25 year old guy and she was 39 going 40. Thats crazy. Its like you are decade behind.
Hell yes! Younger women are more often than not immature and emotionally unstable. Your four year gap is nothing to really worry about so long as you are both on the same page. You've gotten to the point where the maturity gap shortens - it's not as noticable as if she were 22 and you 18.
reminds me of an old country song by Ronnie McDowell: (CHORUS) Older women, make beautiful lovers Older women, they understand I've been around some, and I have discovered That older women know just how to please a man. (Verse) Everybody seems to love those younger women From eighteen on up to twenty-five Well I love 'em too, but I'm tellin' you Learnin' how to really love, takes a little time. (Verse) So baby don't you worry about growin' older Those young girls ain't got nothin' in you 'Cause it takes some livin', to get good at givin' And givin' love is just where you could teach them a thing or two.
Learn from their experience and then dump them when you want to get serious. Who wants wrinklies when you're still young and vibrant.
Older women are great...They don't play games like younger girls...They're very honest...They know exactly what they want and they don't beat around the bush either.
My wife is 5 years older than me now. I'm 25 and she is 30. It's not a big deal except when she lets the age difference make her feel old. However, being that she is a woman, if she didn't have that to fall back on, she would just find something else to make her feel old.
Just for the record, I'm 31 and I like 23-year-olds. (but I don't date off the bbs, so don't any of you even think about it )
