is it wrong for a 23 year old woman and a 40 year old man to be initmate? Both parties are very interested in eachother, though neither are sure their families will be very accepting. Follow their hearts, or let judgemental family members ruin something that could be spectacular?

Do it! If you're both single, in love and willing - forget everyone else! You're old enough to make your own decisions. Age is only a number.

don't do things for others, do it for yourself. ur friends and family are there to give u advice, and want the best for u, so keep that in mind.. don't get angry or upset at them, but help them understand that u feel this could be something really great.
at the same time, keep those words in mind..sometimes u can't see what others see. i say tread carefully, w/ open mind, and open understanding... since u are entering into a relationship that stereotypically will be "harder" than a "normal" one, it just means u have to work THAT much harder to make it work. but that doens't mean it can't. anything is possible as long as u do your best!!! :) so don't let anyone run over you, not this guy, and not ur family. just try ur best to respect all parties and don't alienate others.. if they alienate you, it is their fault...but if u alienate them, they will always have something to throw in ur face if it doesn't work out.... u know? good luck, and use your head AND your heart.. they will speak to you and let u know if what u are doing is good.

Your both old enough to not give a crap what anybody else thinks.
Go with what your heart says. You have to live for you not for what other people might agree with or not.
Good luck in whatever you decide.

of course a 40 year old wants a young peice of a$$. if your just doing it for fun, go for it. if you think it could be something more... forgett it. you will have to many differences to overcome because of your age differance. you grew up in a different genaration then he did, so your values are probably tottaly different. not to mention your life goals should be different. I'm talking about things like marriage, kids, goals, plans for career, etc. you'll have sooo many problems.

No, but keep it on the physical level only. Dont want to be changing his diapers for him in 30 years.

It's your life. If it's legal, consenting, and your both happy, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks.
