Age-Gap Relationships

There's, apparently, 20 years between me and my fiancé...ie, he's older.

I say 'apparently' because it was the furthest thing from my mind! Two people connecting...caring...loving.. laughing.

The last thing I was thinking about was age!

We get on great. Friends and family love him, as his collective do me (I say modesty! Lol!) so there's nothing more to add.

We've been in each other's orbit for around 9 or so years, dating....god...7 or so...?!?

Keep seeing him and ignore the haters. Age gaps are really good in my opinion.
Enjoy life and enjoy each other!

I feel age gap dating is the best way to go. When I was young, I enjoyed dating older women. When I was 16, I was dating women in their mid 30s. Now that I’m the older one, I preferred dating younger women. The chemistry is much much better in general

As long as you love each other age difference doesn’t matter.

Love is love is love. It comes from the right chemistry, and from the right pairing. I hope and pray that you always have it, and that nothing ever changes for you!

My gf is seven years older. Met her at church after the divorce. She's kind of "high above me" . No kids, never married. Her mom lived with her till she died. Father died in a plane crash when she was little. Loves to read. She's vegetarian so that's been interesting. I do a lot of the cooking. Despite thst she's in pretty good shape from swimming. Has a lot of problems with her feet, knee, and hip. Now her hand has issues. Has her own townhome and lake place. Now that I'm retiring She's ready and wanting to travel. I guess if she's paying it's ok.
There is 11 years between my parents so I never really saw it as unusual or an issue.

If it doesn’t bother you guys then who cares.

Nothing wrong with that.

PS. Very pretty profile pic 😉
20 year age gaps isnt a big deal when one is 20 and one is 40.........but when one gets to be 40 and the other one is at retirement age ...it starts to feel like a bad idea. In 15 more years more one is the younger nurse in the prime of her life for the other who is dying. When the older one dies the younger one is past 60....and statistically their chance of finding someone else at that age is about zero. Since women live longer than men usually that dooms that 60 year old woman to maybe 30+ years of being alone. Not a very romantic analysis.....but a realistic one for sure.

@MaBalzEsHari ...and yet I know of some very sprightly gentlemen, now in their 90's, that lead very active lives...and also run marathons! Age means nothing. It's how you look after yourself that matters more.

@SarahTheHooker True enough. But the cemeteries all over the world are filled with millions who never made 90.....or 70. Its a crap shoot. And a large age difference has other downsides.........like pensions with an over a 5 year age difference...........etc.

But it's taste. I date much older...and much younger.

My wife is 11 years younger, but I’m a pretty active 64.
James1956 · 61-69, M
My wife is 15 years younger than me.

If the two people genuinely love each other, age difference doesn't matter. The younger person just needs to accept the fact that the older partner will likely die long before the younger partner. That is not a pleasant thought, but it is reality.

Just make a post saying your legs swing open from flattery already. Jesus.
