older women vs younger men (42)
mychelleOttawa, Ontario Canada114 Threads 9 Polls 1,685 PostsI would like to hear your opinion on older women, over forty, dating younger men. Would you say these men are really serious about dating these women or just in for a brief interlude?

I married my second husband when I was 31. He had just turned 25. We had a wonderful 10 year marriage. The only problem is that it lasted 22 years. I should have gotten out while the getting was good. But, I waited until he had fooled around enough and I was over 50. He is now remarried to someone younger.
I loved being with him and I think the marriage would have lasted forever had he dated more women before we got married. So, younger men wouldn't bother me at this age. (Of course, younger at this age could still put them in their 40's.)

What is the age different you are talking about here?
If the woman is over forty...how young would you go to be considered a "younger man"

Lets say younger man could be 5-10 years younger than the woman in her 40's.

I would think its "workable"...I had a lover that was almost 10 years my junior and that lasted for 6 years (mind you i was not in my 40's when it started)

I agree completely with you on this one, and did something quite crazy as a result.

Men admit to being "visually" stimulated...so what happens when that "vision" fades over time...what then?
When you are 30 and she's 45 perhaps the "differences" are not noticeable...but what about when you are 40 an she's 60??

Visual will always exist from a guy perspective. If there isn't more than visual that's concrete though, it won't survive a year, let alone 20 - I don't feel, anyway.

I'm sure it wasn't crazy Rich...perhaps more of a spur of the moment thing???

No, it wasn't spur of the moment - much thought was put into this, I can confirm that much. I'm curious now though.

As I said before I have had a younger lover...and it was wonderful, so very exciting...I loved his enthusiasm...but there is no getting around the fact that we were at two different places in our lives..
I loved him and i knew he loved me...but our goals for the next 10 years would not be the same...he was going to be travelling down a road that i had already been almost 10 years ago...i don't care to step back i want to move forward...

You touch on a few points that are quite valid, I'm going to have to think on this a few I believe. Thank you for your input, Urs

I dont see it as an issue. It would depend on the age gap.
A 60 year old woman dating a 20 year old guy would be an eyebrow raiser.
But if its only 10-15 year difference, as the couple get older, then I cant see its an issue.

Not all older women are more experienced than the younger guys. Some older women may have had only one spouse/partner in their life time. As for the younger man seeing a woman that is more settled, that is possibly if he is looking for a ready made home, while he pays out alimony to his previous partner, but then it doesn't have to be an older woman for him to do that either.

I love being my age Rich...and i wanted my love to enjoy being his..but all the love in the world could not change the fact that our two ages were different...and a difference that would eventually make itself known...
I know someone now that i care for a lot...but he will not even give me a chance because he feels he is far to old for me...so its not like it doesn't work both ways too...He is being realistic...and i'm just being...well...a woman!!
So i have been on both sides of this particular fence...
