Starrslight: I think it's also a mind set. But why should it b any different for a woman to date a younger man than a man to date a younger woman? Society has gotten use to men doing it and got to were they look past it but let a woman do it and their the most wicked thing walking. I was married to a man for 20 yrs that was 7 yrs younger than myself.But he is very intelligent and had more common sense then most men his senior.I do think if there's a 15 yr or more difference between u that in the long run it will make a difference in your relationship no matter the mind set or anything else because of being curious but, 10 yrs I don't think is that big a difference
Thank you Starrslight ! :)
What happened with your ex ? Why did you divorce him? If he had a comnon senese more than most of the senior men you souldn't be without him now.......confused

Its the 21st century and it is normal.Its dating right ?Cant have cold feet at the begining, so go for it .Its all about how a person feels comfortable with age difrence ,now some people will coment maybe some friends ,but it all comes down to how you deal with it all ,and how you realy feel at the end of the day.

I dated 17 years younger than me it works for more than 2 years i guess age doesn't matter as long as you are both happy and compatible for many things it works.

i think people should stop put age barrier on love. i don't think nothing is wrong with it, as long as he's not a minor, let love flow like the river of Jordoncheering

moreover: Mmmm...I gave up on a girl 11 years younger than me, about 10 years ago. I was 35,and I felt that she had much still to experience, at 24; so, I let her go - even though she didn't want to split up.
Were it the present (where she is 35 - I wouldn't 'jump ship' so quickly. My point is, that I think it's different, when both parties are older. The gap (11 years) closes, or appears smaller, somehow, perhaps??

Good luck.


Hi! moreover, when we are young we see say a 19 year old as really young when you are say 25. EXAMPLE Yesterday at work I have a intelligent young woman of 25 say to me she and her BF both 25 were on a buss and two 19 year olds got to chatting to them, their age came up in conversation and the 19 year olds were gob smacked jaw drop they thought the 25 year olds were their age. I think being so young a few years difference in age is huge, where's as we get older it doesn't seem to be an issue. Well it isn't to me a few years is neither here or there grin

joyaepace: May work rarely. But it is too much difference in life experience. I dated a guy 13 years younger, and I decided I will never do it again. Few years, may be even 5-6 is OK but no more.

Kaybee50: The timing of this thread is interesting. I am 51 and although I generally seem the most attracted to men around my age range, there is someone who is 31 that intrigues the heck out of me. But I keep saying to him and myself, "You are too young for me!"

I have dated a few men in the their mid to late 30s, and in all of those cases, they "felt" too young for me. Not so much because of their number of years, but how we related.

Now here is this 31 year old guy, and although I haven't met him face to face, the communication is easy, he seems to possess an old soul. I don't "feel" an age gap at all. But my mind is questioning my sanity.


I would like to ask - - - - what sanity grin - - - - Well it just goes to show, that age has nothing to do with how people go along - - - - - That being said, I always had better comunication, and chemistry with women that were couple of years above me - - - Can't imagine why ( I am not talking about grannies here thou grin ) - - -

In response to: What do you think if woman is dating a man who is 11-12 yrs younger than her?

Is it wrong or it's just normal in 21 st Century?


it depends on both of them.if they have love to each other there's nothing wrong with it.when i was 24 i was dating a women 34for a some time.we were having great time,and my ex was 11 years yonger than me and we had 2 yrs great time too.so i think age doesnt matter.unless theres huge differense.wine wine

Perfectly normal in this day and age. They used to be called cougars, but now they are called panthers. It would be interesting to know a cougar. My last ex was 18 years younger than me, and we were together for 14 years and married for 12.

Rose1010: Yes ! You are absolutly wright ...but still ... don't you think that 10- 12 yrs is a huuuuge differece?


I think it depends on the people involved, their personalities, their maturity, their interests and the type of relationship they choose to have ...

If the pieces of the puzzle fit why should the age matter?
