i am 32 and my other half is 44, we have been together nearly 5 years - it bothers him more than me but that could be i tease him that when he was going to rock concerts i was starting school!!
He is my soul mate and usually i never think of the age difference I have been out with younger men but they tend to be self centred and either clingy or jealous
You go girl - only you know if you are meant to be together

I am 38 and my husband is 48. I have always been attracted to the older man. They just seem to be more mature and have experienced more.
When we first got together, he tried to treat me like I was a child and that just wasnt gonna work. He eventually quit doing that.
We have been together for 21 yrs now. What I have noticed in the last few yrs is that...he is showing his age. Hes tired all the time, hes not active, or hes not interested in what our son and I want to do.
My mom had warned me about all these things and I didnt listen. Oh well, I love him and thats all that matters.
I think its totally fine if they are older, as long as you love them unconditionally....and the relationship works.

I've had relationships with older men, in fact I'm married to one. We've been married 18 years, and together for 26 years. We have two children, he has another two from his first marriage. His oldest from that marriage has the same age gap as me and my other half. We love each other to bits and are extremely happy, you'd think we only got married yesterday, that's just the way we are.
There's no harm in falling in love with an older man, go for it.

i am 28 and two years ago was in a relationship with a man of 46 years. He was a lovely man and we got on really well. we split up because as it was hard to find quality time to spend together, he ran his own business and had a 16 year old daughter. We stole moments together when he wasnt working.

My ex is 50. I was 29 and let me tell ya honey... i broke up with him after a year when i realized that i liked the security of being with an older man, but think of it he is much older the age difference plays a major role in your relationship and in 10 years he can retire .. i wanted to have kids get married and have a family he won't be able to do that with you.. since you might have to change his diaper in 10-15 years... not what i want. I since have found the man of my dreams he is 28 and we're getting married in May... older men can't cut it honey ...

I was 18 and he was 29. It really was great but we just were not interested in the same things. Older men really now how to treat a lady. Maybe some of these younger guys should listen to their dads about relationships.

My boyfriend is 16 years older than me. I'm 27, he's 43. It's working out great so far! A bit rocky in the beginning, but we've worked through the rough patches and are doing wonderful!!!

Yes, we started dating when I was 26 and he was 38. It lasted quite a few years. Then I realized I wanted to get married and take the relationship more seriously and he wasn't looking for that. Other than that the relationship was nice while it lasted.

I'm 26 my b/F's 10 years older than me, we get on fine, hasn't always been easy though as we don't always have the same in common as i like going clubbing etc he doesn't but there are other things we like doing together. I guess if you are asking this question you obviously have doubts, if you are having doubts i suggest you think seriously as you have your whole life ahead of you.we have been together 10 years.
