I'm definely attracted to her, but the age difference concerns me. She has made the first advance, by asking to have dinner sometime. Should I make her aware of my age before we set up a dinner date? Also if I do, and things work out, what would parents think? Once a parent always a parent!! Am I setting myself up for heartbreak?

I'm currently seeing a man who is 47 and I'm 30. I asked him once what did he think about the age difference and he said he didn't really think about it. I'm sure in the beginning it came across his mind but that didn't stop him and it shouldn't stop you. She made the first move now see where it goes, remember its just dinner. As for her parents, I wouldn't worry about that right now, go to dinner, get to know her and then maybe you can begin to wonder how her parents will react. But in the end, their her parents and she will be the one to have to deal with their reaction. Heartbreak can come from a 28 year old or a 46 year old woman, life without risk is no life at all. Go out, enjoy yourself, stop putting so much pressure on a first date, and just enjoy the time you spend with her whether this turns into a lasting relationship or not.

Go for it. How would you ever know if you don't try? I don't think that age is such a huge deal anymore, so long as you are both into each other that is all that matters. Go to dinner with you, and only answer the age question if she asks, don't just come out and say it. If she really digs you it will be irrelevant. Besides, at 28 she is mature enough, and out of the drama phase that most girls stick to.

I dated someone who was 44 when I was 28 and the age difference was never the problem. I would say go out without any expectation but to be open, let her know of you have any concerns. Chances are she wont care, I didnt.

Stop worrying about it and wait until she ask your age , she already has a clue your older..A 21 yr old asked me out when I was 48 , I was supprised as hell and we dated and liked each other..Don't worry about the heartbreak a 40 year old can do that to you also , have a possitive attitude about this and enjoy it...

Depends if you're married or not.
You shouldn't worry about what your parents think.
Yes, you should tell her your age.
And yes, you are settling yourself up for heartbreak. But it's just 50%.

Go out to dinner with her. During conversation you can mention your age. It's crucial you take the lead at this point - call her to make plans, pick her up, pay, etc.

I am (young) and my guy is 65. Great sex. My parents love me so they let me make my own decisions. You must be HOT for a younger woman to want you that bad, and no need to tell her your age right away if she asked you out, she wants you, go for it !!!
PS Are you HOT???

I don't mean to be rude but how about finding a woman your own age? That would be a good start.
