I must admit I don't even understand why you are asking the question. At 22 are you not old enough? Are you not mature enough? If you feel that you are not mature enough to handle a relationship with a man of this age than perhaps so I am presently 45 I have dated many younger women without the age difference being a problem ...Of course I only date women that are of adult maturity and age but 22 seems like a fairly mature age.It is not sick as you say but if you have these feelings then you should definitely date someone that you feel is more age appropriate...You do sound fairly immature for your age.

If the relationship works for you both, it's fine. You are an adult and free to choose what is best for you.
But keep this in mind. You are 22 and he is 43. That's a 21 year age difference. While you are both young and healthy, it's great. But when you are 43 and in the prime of your life, he will be 64!
So if you are looking for this to be a long term relationship, keep that in mind.

Screw "normal". Are you happy? I know he is. Enjoy until you don't enjoy anymore. Chances are, you will want to be with someone closer to your own age down the line...But, everyone you have a relationship with is a learning experience. Have fun while it IS fun..The age gap probably will start to bug you as soon as the passion wears off....Which judging by your age should happen soon..2 weeks to 2 months tops. { just guessing} And remember...Just because you love someone doesn't mean you must spend the rest of your life with them. You will love alot of people in your lifetime. I wish you young girls would realize this. I wish I knew this when I was your age. I 'm going on too long I know, BUT! Just one more thing girl!! Live YOUR life. YOURS!! To hell with what everyone else thinks. {except me, of course.} When a relationship starts to feel wrong.. it is. If you feel used, disrepected, uneasy or manipulated..Leave. If you feel the " in love" is gone, but you still "love" him...Get out, it isn't good enough. You have instincts. Use them. All the women I know, myself included, Have the same story when it comes to relationships..We all stayed too long, trying to fix it, forgiving the dumb - *** things they do...Or, not paying attention to what we are feeling. Which brings me back to answer your question.{Finally Huh?} You already know in your head that this will not last. So does he. Have fun until the time comes that you must leave him. Hopefully, he won't cry or beg..that really sucks...but it makes it easier to leave.

Age does not make a difference. What counts is are the two of you compatible? Do you want to be with each other the rest of your life? Are you prepared for when the time comes and you're 6o and he will be 81? Is your love strong enough for all the test of time and people? I say YES. Go for it. You're not sick for being in love. Just as long as you are both of legal age.
CHUCK

I don't think that the age gap is a problem, I think that the problem is that you're insecure enough about your relationship to be looking for answers outside your relationship, especially with strangers. If you really love him, age should mean nothing.

You're not sick, why you sad this?
I'm 22 two, I'm in love with my lover 29 years older now,
but once when I was 20 I loved to be in relationship with a man 42 years old.
Love is blind, no matter how old he is

don't worry about the age difference - as long as he is genuine and is in love with you too it doesn't matter whether he is 43 or 25 - "love has its reasons that reason doesn't understand"
Good luck and be happy!

There is nothing normal in this life... Depends on how other people see it... If you are happy and in love, then go with it...
Age difference be damned... ;) He's a lucky guy...

it depends on wat u plan to do wid this relationship.if u dont want to get married it will lead u to an end less road of misery. if u want to get married there will be a lotta points to consider.but remember after ten years he will be older and maybe just maybe he might not be able to satisfy u sexually.30's is the prime age for women.anyway it depends on person to person.if he is worth it go for it.
