listen dont worry what people say if your happy who cares what anyone else thinks i was with a guy for 11yrs and he was 19yrs older than me we now have two beautiful children together small towns forget after awhile and if they see it bothers u what they think your only giving them satisfaction so dont buy into that..
I usually don't make too many comments here but I have a cousin who married a much older man... she is 46 now and he is 74. He has always had back problems and uses a wheel chair. Then her mother had a stroke and now she cares for them both! I don't see how she does it! Anyways all I can say is I hope this gentleman you are seeing has an incredibly large retirement fund that he will immediately put your name on! lol! Other than that, I say follow your heart.

interesting as your profile says, you 48 years old / free for a nice girl / age 18 - 40 years / looking for marriage
so is your 20 year old girl, you are together with still too old for you?
nothing about, that you are not looking or being in a relationship
or is that young girl, you are (sometimes) together with maybe your daughter?
or is your comment only there, for to encourage young Ladies, who might will read that Theard too, for to go for older men, that maybe you also might will get a catch up of a young fish?
JSuburbia: Well Morgan you know my attitude as far as age. I don't think it should matter (as long as both are of legal age). But yes, there definitely is a double standard in that women are actually encouraged more and praised more if they are with a younger man and men are critiqued more so if they are with a younger woman. I don't agree with either, and just feel that people should be able to date whomever they wish as long as they are both of legal age.
Morning I do think its down to the individuals concerned and can only go by my personal experience.
But could not help but notice the different attitudes to a woman posting a thread like this, than when a man has done the same thing and been ripped to pieces for it.
an2ahan: morgan, he supposed to get a good feedback also, right? men or woman, whats makes the differece? only happyness matter, not anything else.
I am not saying that at all, what I a saying is the reaction of the majority that have posted here is different than when man posts he is in a relationship with a young woman.

Maybe up north she would be look3d at as a gold digger by jealous women, but down south they are a bit more sophisticated about these matters.

@ sprinter n tomcat... i dont intend to move to england. we consider kids schooling, n cultures difference, think it would be better if we live here in indonesia.
I am 68 years young,and looking for that younger lady.In the past few years have dated ladies in their 40's and 50's.There has been no problem,in or out of the bedroom!!! It's is just my location in Northern Cyprus where I cannot find a suitable date. Mike
In this picture of yours, you look very youthful,around 50s , i would say.-

So, move to the internationally recognised South part of Cyprus.-Didn't you know,when you settled there,that it was,by force an occupied territory.???
