If I sleep with a mature woman will it work?

What do you mean by “fair”? Fair to whom in what way? What do you mean by “work”?
If you have two consenting adults who are being honest with each other about what they are looking for, it is fair. If they are both looking for friends with benefits, that is certainly possible across an age gap. If one person is hoping for undying love and the other is hoping only for a good roll in the hay, there will be a problem.

@Poppies Well said.

@PhoenixPhail after I wrote that, I thought, what if a person is looking for love, thinks they might be in love, but is afraid the age gap will keep it from lasting? Now that is harder. The age gap could be a problem, but not always.

@Poppies I think your points are well taken.

It takes both people to make true being in love happen. I think if being in love is dependent upon being close in age rather than being in the present with someone, it may not be true being in love to start with.
