Is this too big of an age gap?

it's not the age gap that bothers me... workplace relationships never work out.

I wouldn't date someone that was my superior. Dangerous move.

My wife is 11 years younger than me. When we got together she was 32 and I was 43. Not nearly the gap you're looking at, but nonetheless we had a few issues. I was past certain things and she still wanted to be in the middle of it. As we aged we began to come more inline with one another. Good luck if you decide to do it. If you do I think you'll like dating an older man. We are typically more patient and we certainly take our time making love.

The bottom line is how you feel about this. Understand work place relationships are the worst because when things go sour in the relationship it goes sour at work.
My advice is not to do it.

I'm 41 and have a 19 and 17 year old lover. They have pursued me by the way.
So the age issue isn't as major as the fact that this guy is your Manager. That kind of relationship is a bad one to get into. If the relationship were to end bad, then one or both of you will end up fired. If he was to fire you, then that opens up a sexual harassment case. And most companies will cover their ass and terminate him for the improper relationship and you for attendance or sales numbers or whatever they could come up with.

thats a big age gap but you both are adults its more based on how well you two match. my friend is 32 and he is dating an 18 year old. they get along well. their personality work well together. its also dangerous with him being your boss. if something happens you might lose your job or might make your work more difficult.

Hmmm...well it is quite a gap that could come to surprise others like friends or family...but if you're interested I don't see why not, I mean there is a chance your manager just wants a fling with you and not anything deep. Still who knows you can decide who you date and stuff...like I don't find it bad per say, just like a little woah, but if I was your friend I'd be like that's your thing and I'm fine with it I guess...

The age difference isn't (or shouldnt be) a big deal. If you get along ok and seem to have similar interests then just think of things in that way. I met someone that is 27 and I'm 55 that we just enjoy doing the same things and enjoy hanging out with each other. So enjoy but take things slow so that things don't get weird at work.

I can't say anything, my wife is 18years older than me, and she is soon moving out. She informed me just before disappearing for a weak or so.
I invited a friend over to see the place to see if she would move in and help with the rent.
She was kinda playful and she is 22years younger.
So I really don't know.

I think it's up to YOU and him...no-one else. However, be prepared for comments from all the folks in your life who will feel it's their duty to share them with you.

No, I don't think so, just make sure he actually likes you and isn't just trying to hit it and quit it.

I would find out your company's rules on fraternization first. When I was your age I dated several older men. In my experience, most of them were looking for something very different from what I was looking for in life. However, that is simply my experience. If you like him then age is just a number.

never good to date someone from work. especially someone higher up. go out on a date and youll see if the age gap is a problem.

When I was 20 I dated a 37 year old. She looked younger too. I mean I was turned on by her so I just went for it. I won't say it was effortless.. you will catch hell from your peers and their peers will not be uber supportive either. But it can work. We made ot last for 5 years. But if there isn't a serious connection, don't bother, too much trouble.

The socially acceptable age that men can date is half their age + 7. So, for a 36 year old, it would be 25. So yeah. That's an age gap that would probably receive negative attention from society. But, while it's not socially acceptable, ultimately it's up to you. You're a legal adult.

Age, not an issue.
Working in same business, issue.

The age gap is a socially constructed taboo for guiding relationships. Try it out and figure it out for your own. Everyone is attracted to youth. He will certainly appreciate it.

Don't do it ,you're way to old for him

As long as you're both adults and as long as you're both OK with it...
I'd be more concerned that this is a work relationship.

Ive dated 18 years younger. I was 47 and she was 29. Ultimately, it didnt work. We are still close. We didn't meet at work though.

Ultimately, it depends on whether you have anything in common..

its a big age difference. I wouldnt recommend it but souls dont see age or color...

Nope its ok in my book. I say go for it girl.

If you like him then dont let your ages stop you

Depends. what are you looking for?

no go head

Big yes but go for it to see how it is.

you have my blessing

Just be careful, ok?

Go for it.
