Okay ... here is my take on the subject ... for whatever it's worth.
I have dated someone much older than me. He was 20 years older than me but it didn't matter to me one bit. I was happy and so was he and that was all I cared about.
Now I've also been at the other end ... I dated someone who was 16 years younger than I am. That was not so cool ... maybe it was his age and maybe it was just that he was a very immature person who had no idea how to have a REAL RELATIONSHIP but whatever the reason ... that didn't work out at all.
I have also had many younger men interested in meeting/dating me (this site and others) but I draw the line at much more than 15 years my junior. Anything more than that is just "not my style".
juliana23: hey guys,is your partner's age very important to you?if yes,how much? what if you meet someone that you really like/love and likes you in return,but who is much older than you,like...more than 10years older than you? would you date him/her?would that be okay?or..is that bad?is that..shameful?
because you know how people can judge...
what if you were the older one?would you date someone much younger than you?or would you forget about him/her just because of his/her age even if you fall for him/her?

I'm less mature than many my age who just act old. Plus I'm pretty fit and healthy -although I can't outrace my doggie so I want someone in good shape/health too.
On the other hand more than 15 yrs younger is too young.
Liebe2: After my experiences on CS, I decided much older is not for me. They turn into possessive, jealous control freaks. I need someone that would cherish me and help me grow, someone that would trust me and see me for who I am, not someone to restrain me, judge me based on their previous experiences and question my every move
and all the time i think that younger man is the one who would be like that Liebe. another opinion stated the contrary, yet still i cant get rid of it out off my head. oh boy, i thought i can find older man who feels secure about himself without being to possessive control freaks. so now im not sure, older or younger.
Lilly32: I have never dated ( my dates were a few only ) someone younger then me, even a little diffrence, only to some older a few years then me,maybe I shall try ? Though I am scared to feel like come to big mamma
Well you definitely are not BIG but very nicely - - - proportioned - - - So can I come to you - - - ?
chococherrie: yes 10 years older is perfect for me..i like old school guys
Old schools is not limited to age - - - - Often older guys are as immature as the ones that are 20 - - - I am 31 - going on 32 in less then a month, and I am old school + modern school Kind of middle in way of perceiving what is a "woman" and how two should work together - - - No age can give "you" maturity - - - only how well you perceive the world around "you", how much one can learn, and if one has high enough Emotional IQ - - -

Yes much better So - - - I'd like to invite you for a drink, if you just hoop on your broom, I'll arrange a clearance for you, so you can fly over Slovenia. I think my balcony is big enough for you to land. So if you start now, you should be here in about 30 min
