Well, age is a state of mind after 40!! I am OVER 50, and my husband is 46! Before this year, I was involved with someone 12 years my junior, and before that, involved with someone 8 years my senior! Granted, I was never truly happy with either. The "size" of the man's MATURITY is what matters most. After all, isn't "size" important?
Cristina...you're being silly!....5 years difference is nothing.....you should look more at mentality...and maturity. If you feel more comfortable being "the baby" in a couple, not taking any leadership role, that's fine, as long as your mate is comfortable calling the shots...it's all a question of matching personalities. Forget about age....5 years is irrevelant, especially at 45 or so. Most of my partners have been at least 10 years younger than me, and it's just not an issue. More important is how you sync as a couple. Are your goals the same?...is he responsible?....etc etc...
Thanks just as I was getting worried bout the age thing- he's 36 and I'm 49. He is mature beyound his years and I refuse to grow old so maybe huh? We'll see
I don't think I would sweat a man being 5 years younger than me as long as he is mature and settled, but I am with you about liking and wanting an older man.
