should i stay with my girlfriend I'm 41 shes 24 do you think this could be a problem later?

Answer 1

If you make it a promble it will be. I'm very serious about that. Don't bring up the age issue, if you love each other and you want to be with each other then let it be. On your end, you may start to feel insecure because of the age difference, but i asure you, she knows about the age difference and she is old enought to know if this is something that bothers her or not. Let the promblems in your future have to do with things like you can't figure out where the two of you want to go for dinner, not things like she is so much younger than me....so what... Good luck and treat her right

Answer 2

That's funny I just asked if anybody would consider a relationship with someone 10 yrs older, male or female! You might be having "fun" now but in another "20" yrs what's it going to be like? you'll be 61 and she'll be 44, think you'll still be able to make her "happy"? Then I look at it the other way! Maybe it's not "how" long you're together but the "quality" of the time you're together! I guess that's a decision only "you" can make! I think about the "OLD" saying, IT'S BETTER TO HAVE LOVED AND LOST, THAN TO NEVER HAVE LOVED AT ALL! Best wishes to you "both"!

Answer 3

Yes for some it may not work.She's young and she might leave you for a younger dude one day.It's possible for relationships to work at different age gaps.24 she still has to grow more i think.I mean you were finishing high school when she was born.My dad cheated on my mom for a 23 year old and he was 38 and they are still together.Now she is 45 and he is 60.I think it's the money though.My mom passed but she was with her old man she was 43 and he was 65 and it lasted 10 years.She died at 53 and he was 75 so it really doesn't matter.She's an adult and can make her own choices to leave or stay.Don't dwell on it or worry too much I'm 31 and my man is 26 but years ago like 21 and 26 i use to think he would leave me for a younger girl but he's still with me and i don't think about that.I just enjoy what we have.Eachother

Answer 4

There have been successfull relationships with larger gaps in ages.
Remember, as time goes on, the gap becomes a smaller and smaller
percentage of your actual age. You'll usually know if there is a problem
within the first couple of years.

If you find yourself frustrated with her inexperience, shallowness, etc, then
yeah, you may want to find someone else. If you think she is frustrated
with your lack of energy or the fact that she never thinks she can be the
leader in the relationship, there could be a problem.

If one or the other of you feels that you are being used, there could
well be a problem.

Otherwise, its just the same issues of personality mix as any other
relationship.

Answer 5

I say you should stay with her. My mom was 23 and my dad was 46 when they met.. got married a year later... had their first kid a year later... and another ten years later had me. They've been married for about 35 years now and are incredibly happy together!
My husband is six years older. We started dating when i was 14 and he was 21... at first it was really weird but the only time there's ever really a problem is at the begining (like when we started dating... because he might be considered a pedifile) you guys are both old enough to not have that awkardness. I say if you really like her, go for it!♥

Answer 6

That is a stretch, but it is not uncommon. As men marry and divorce each wife gets younger. This is a natural occurrence. There are pluses and minuses.

she will admire you for your wisdom and you will be excited by her youth. On many planes you can not relate. You are old enough to be her dad.

Your children will be young enough to to your grand children at least that's what I tell my kids. I am 13 years older than my present wife of 21 years. It has not been a problem for us.

If you two really share a love. Go for it, Life is to short not to love.

Answer 7

it sounds like a problem now.why would she want an old guy like you.you must be rich.or she has a father complex.as long as your wife doesn't find out you seem in the clear.so stay with her till your viagra runs out or till see finds a young man.do me a favor and tell her that i'm only 4 years older than her if she wants a mature,less closer to dying man.so when you were 31 she was 14.hey you found a way to not look as much as a pedaphile good for you.

Answer 8

Most women are a lot more mature than men their age . My Mom was married to a man 25 years older than her . They were together 25 years . She's been widow for 15 and has never looked for a relationship with another man because "there is no other man to take his place " . As long as you two are happy , other should mind their own business . Good Luck

Answer 9

Personally i do because ur at the age where u need a women 2 stay in ur life not running in and out because women that young are at the age where they wanna take chances which means they wanna see what u can offer and then drop it and move on because there young and they wanna make the fun of ur life. See truthfully ur storie is like episodes of flavor of love and if u never seen it then u may wanna watch it. but thats what i mostly recomend for u and hopefully u take it under consideration!

Answer 10

I've once been in a large age gap relationship.
If you both really like/love each other, then no, it won't be a problem.. though it will be a problem if you both think about it too much and ponder on the future.

Just enjoy what you have today, and don't think too much about your age difference or the future.. we don't know what will happen in the future.. It's nicer to enjoy the moment, especially if love has graced your surroundings.
