with me? Could this work out? I am 37, divorced with two beautiful daughters, 9 & 8 yrs old... he is 27, never been married... he says he only ever dates older women and seems mature. I have been seeing him for 6mths casually but he has indicated he wants to take things more seriously... am I fooling myself?

No I am married to a man 10yys younger, I had a 6yr old son when I met him and he is now 15. They have a fantastic relationship and both respect eachother. We now have a 5yr old daughter who he treats exactly the same as my son. I feel if he is willing to try and your girls are involved in your life then everything will be OK. When I met my husband we were exactly the same age,as you are and people who are true friends will support you. Good look, do not be influenced by others bad experiences as any relationship can fail or be sucessfull, do what is best for you xxx

It could work. I'm 28 and I love older women. I was raised in part by my grandparents, and so I am very old in manner. My personality just jives better with people a little older.
It sounds like this guy is mature, so you guys would probably have a good relationship despite the age. I would just worry a bit about the kids though. This guy may not realize what he's getting into, taking on two kids and all. You need to make sure he thinks through the whole scenario. Explain to him that when he's 37, he'll have two 18 year old daughters and a 47 year old wife. Force him to think more than six months ahead. If he's still game, then go for it!

I think may be you are. Even if he is mature, you cant get away from Human nature. Your at a point where age will show and your mind will change like his will. I think for some it can work out, but he is young and his wants and likes will change and he may just leave. Try to think if you where married to a 50 yr old guy and your 37 right now. You might over time want a younger looking man who is more on your level and can keep up with what you want in life. Stay around your own level may be about 4 years in age difference. This will give you a better chance at being with that someone for a long time to come. I hope this helps.

Age is only a number. He is 27 and at 27 most males know what he wants from life. It is you who is uncertain... There are lots of instances when older females had a perfect relationship with a young male adult.
If you have been seeing him for 6 months and you have not kicked him off your life, that says something.. that you can tolerate being with him.
Give it a try.. what have you got to loose.?
However, taking seriously mean, he wants to have sex with you.. just beware.. Your instincts will tell you if things are progressing the way it should.

The only thing that is going to get in the way of your relationship, is that attitude. Are you wonderful? Does he know this? Than dont let age be anything but a number. Dont let that number become an insecurity! I know its easier said than done, but he is WITH you afterall, right? Try to think of it this way, does his age benefit you in any way? Probably not. As your age does not benefit him, so why let it interfere with a possibly great thing? I dont know if I am getting my point accross as I would like, I have thought about this so much myself, I hope so. I am also 37 I have two boys and my bf is 27. (we also have a baby on the way)
Good luck to you!

Only time will tell, but don't take into consideration that he's younger and never been married or had kids. It shows nothing against him. Just means he doesn't rush into things, and he's careful with his choices.

If your kids don't mind...Then you shouldn't either...Love is hard to find...And when you do...Don't let go...Even if you not in Love yet...Still date him...
Only care what you and Your kids think about him...If he's cool with it and so are you...Then let go and let life take you!!!
