50yr old woman, and 38-40 yr old guy ( Archived) (20)

Cougar smogar!! It works both ways. There are some younger men on CS I wouldn't mind. But it would only be short lived cause they are going to want children. Obviously I don't. So I don't bother with them. Same age range? On CS definitely some nice men. Wouldn't mind, but you all live too far away!!

That would be the ABSOLUTE lower limit for me. But it's a personal choice. If your secure enough, I guess it's fine.

My ex was considerably younger than myself, and I mean by over 20 years... for 4 years we had a very close and loving relationship... we also had a (planned) child... our respective ages didn't even come into it.

Just for the record, the fact that we are no loger together is not an issue related to age.

Personally, I don't thik it matters a damn what age two people are... if they work together, then let those who frown shove it up their backsides.

Seriously, most of the time, people who pass judgement are plain jealous.

Anyone, give me one solid, watertight reason why any person should not find love, companionship and enjoyment is someone who is significantly younger or older than themselves?

And please, don't give me wishy-washy answers like "It's just not right" or "They won't have anything in common", because thats complete rot.

And yes... in case anyone wishes to question... I would be fine with one of my own children being involved with someone of a significantly different age. Thier happiness is vastly more important to me than how many years their chosen partner has been on the planet.

Those who tend towards people of a similar age to themselves tell me, the happiness you seek from a partner, would you deny it to someone else just because their loved one is younger or older than they are?

It really pisses me off that society judges people on their physical age rather than their emotional and mental age. Not ALL younger people are immature, and not ALL older people have forgotten how to have fun.

Its about Love, life, fulfillment, happiness.... not about age!!!

Yep thats about as young as I would go... I think its acceptable, but not sure what age gap classes you as a cougar??

Hate that word, I met a guy off here back in the early days he was 40 and called me his little cougar all the time..... needless to say it didnt go anywhere at all......no attraction what so ever and a bit of might have been his age

prefere men closer to my age thats ideal for me personally

Hi blue

I think age difference stops being that important once you hit your mid 30s. Your life is certainly your own by that point and your well passed the age when you can be any more of an embarrassment to your parents!

The heart goes where it will...do adults need to limit this with perceived social expectations?

A small comment sentence... but containing a big answer!!

I guess that's me off your list then as I am a year younger

That it does







and no, we don't.
