love is love, but I sure enough don't want to pushy my husband down graduation aisle with an oxygen mask and a wheel chair. no, offense. It just children are very active a sadly the older man may not be able to keep up with them it is kind of robbing then of real memorable, active with dad. not only that I TRYED IT AND yes is a difference. he was to lyed back and settled plus, I didn't need a father. he just couldn't keep up with me.I had to be around my peers to re-energize,I feel at time older men like to be with younger girls for the youthful energy. won't take mine, drain me with boredom =) not to say all are the same but it is a different pace.

The "beef" is that usually someone who is 54 is in a completely different place in life than someone who is 28. HOWEVER, even if it's frowned upon, your relationship may not be doomed to failure. Many relationships last, even though there is significant age difference between the partners. If you're happy, you're getting along well, and you have common interests, then just go with it. Who cares what other people say? They aren't living in your shoes. It's hard to find true love. If you've found it, then don't lose it. Someone else's opinion isn't worth your happiness.

There are plenty of couples with age differences. What can pull this apart is differ rent interests, life styles and more importantly the way they view the world. You were raised in differ rent times with differ rent ideals. As this person ages they may have health problems and not be able to do things you want. You will have the energy this person is losing. Lastly, friends may find it uncomfortable, like socializing with a parent. If you can overcome these, you will have a good relationship as people closer in age achieve. The answer is the beef is your personal differences.

well i can see how it can be a bit of a problem for some. I mean you are young and want kids probaly or want to hang out still and if he is not into it then that can be a drag for you. But if he is young at heart and wouldn't mind sharing your life the way a 28 year old wants to live then hey different strokes for different fokes. Also i can understand how a older man can be just delicious. I recently befriended an older man and i can see how women would find him sexy and arousing. I say go for it if you are happy rock on sister

I guess the big "beef" is that you are young enough to be his daughter. Another way to look at it is that when you were born he was old enough to already be out of college. I guess it's just hard to believe that 2 people with such a massive age difference could have anything in common.
As long as you are both adults I don't see a problem with it - but I won't lie, when I see a much older man with a young woman in public it does cross my mind whether or not she's his daughter or his g/f.

My grandparents had a 30 year age gap, and never in my life have I seen a love as special as theirs. The way my Grandpa would look at my Grandma with love in his eyes is something I have never seen again. But my Grandpa died 8 years ago, and my Grandma hopefully still has a lot of life left in her, but she hasn't been the same since he left. So there are pros and cons I guess.

There isn't a beef. It is never the age, but the mileage. But, at 54, he/she is likely to die before you. Most of us, don't wish to be alone when we are older. If this person marries you, it is most likely he/she will not be alone for the rest of their life. But you will be. You'll have to decide if the love of this person is worth it.....

now it might not be a problem , you are in love and can not see anything else, but think of you in 10-15 years... you will be 38 years old and he will be 64.... my grand father is a bit older than that age and I am older than you.
think again, when you see other young couples having fun and you have to take care of your sick old husband. when others can eat what ever they like and can go to any restaurant and you have to have a diet for him, he does not have any energy to go to restaurant with you . and if you have kids , they will have a higher chance to lose their father way sooner than other kids... and you also have a higher chance to lose your husband sooner.
think dear , there is more than love in a relationship and marriage....
he is too old for you...
good luck

and who are the authors
some one with a sense of superiority complex
with some questioable credentials
you give creedance to web articles
well you shouldn't
there are many miss truths to the web
if you like him and you cna handle the age gap
plus what you'll be running into later in life and are realistic about it
then who cares what anyone/ society / thinks about it
