The older I get, the more it matters to me. I'm not saying that it can't work, I just think that there are additional hurdles, especially outside of sex. If I barely remember 911 and my partner is reminiscing about the '80's, there's going to be a disconnect in conversation. Age *is* just a number; experience isn't though.
I've been part of relationships with big gaps. Some ended because of nothing to do with age and in other cases, it was a factor. It would take some convincing to get me to try an age gap relationship again.
IMO, it doesn't matter at all. As long as you can still do live life to the fullest.
I have always personally enjoyed older men for so many reasons. Ever since my early 20's, I have dated 'older men' meaning 15 years+ older than myself. The best dates, manners, and considerate gestures have historically come from them.
more than 5 is okej
more than 10 maybe
more than 20 too much
Age to me does not matter.
Only if they are too young (20 or under)...other than that it doesn't matter at all.
Frankly, the only thing that should concern the parties involved is if they are happy in each other's company. Always with the stipulation that both (or more) parties are of age.
Honestly I'm more attracted to my age or older
but when it comes to love I believe that love has no set age rule
As long as there is a deep connection then that is all you really need.
How much it affects you is really up to the people in the relationship. It doesn't have to be a big deal, in my experience. Sometimes it's a boon, not a curse.
I have had RL girlfriend who was very young and older as well. It always depends on the person.
As long as hips are not getting broken, who cares?
“If she's amazing, she won't be easy. If she's easy, she won't be amazing. If she's worth it, you wont give up. If you give up, you're not worthy. ... Truth is, everybody is going to hurt you; you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for.”
all down to the two people if they get on or not
The ones that have worked for me tend to be significantly younger, by at least ten years. As for the conventional wisdom of being closer in age, it hasn't worked since it seems women around my age (I'm 61) will not consider being physical active, and also engage in fit shaming. They will not even consider exploring a hiking trail. Yet my lifestyle still includes competitive cycling (road, track, cyclocross, amateur masters level), exploring mountain bike and hiking trails, kayaking and other physically challenging pursuits. I am very turned on by athletic women - they take care of themselves, and can be physically intense.
I dont believe it does. Providing everything works and they are legal why not.
I have only had one guy significantly older and I enjoyed it. There was an age difference of about 25 years. Never had guy younger than me beyond about 5 years.
I have never been with a significantly older woman though.
Our guys are a year older than us and we have no complaints or desires to try anything else at the moment.
I think in some cases age can matter, but that it doesn't necessarily have to. It's just going to come down to personality, I don't think two people have to enjoy the same pop culture references to get along well. If you find someone you like, go for it and just see if the chemistry is there!
I've never been in a relationship where the age gap was significant. I did have an opportunity to date an 18 year old redheaded Miss when I was in my mid 30's. When I found she was on for a relationship, I ran like a scalded dog. I realized that the age difference would kill anything resembling an actual relationship. After the sex is finished there has to be a basis for understanding, for conversation beyond what we watched on TV. So, it wouldn't work for me, but that depends on the relationship goals as well. If the basis for the relationship is mutually understood and agreed upon, no harm, no foul, Then again, I'd probably just analyze the fuckin' thing to death anyway.....
I really don't think age matters, what matters is that your happy with each other and feel very comfortable with each other...
My wife and I were the same age. When I was young I had a thing for older women. I enjoyed the sex with them. Since my wife passed, I've dated women who have been as much as 30 years younger than me as well as my own age (I'm a young 64 now). I think it comes down to the individuals involved and whether or not there is a connection. There is definitely a thrill about sexing up someone where there is a age difference, at least for me....
“It's nice sometimes to open up the heart a little and let some hurt come in. It proves you're still alive.”
I think for the most part it does but it does depend on the age of the people, I think.
I think a 30/40-year-old with a 60-year-old has a better chance of success than a 40 + year old with a 21-year-old.
it is difficult because there is a huge stigma and a certain level of connected to that kind of relationship. And i am sort of shy, so that is a bit of a block as well.
Hope Breaking taboos around my sexuality.
I can understand you might be a little apprehensive to chat with me because of my age.
It is difficult for ladies to want to chat with me, because there is a huge stigma and a certain level of taboo connected to my age.
What is it exactly that makes mature woman attractive to me?
Have you ever really looked deeply at and felt a mature woman?
For me…
There is a sense of something rich, mature and possibly deep that can emanate through her body, a quality that is attractive in and of itself.
She usually offers an image of the aging gracefully, sexy mature woman as something that is desirable, something that aspire me to and look forward to being one day – beautiful mature women. They still so radiant because what’s inside always shines outward. They teach me to love myself, and love my life, and I will attract others.

I personally don't think age makes any difference. I get along better with older men then I do my age, simply because I like a more mature man that knows what he wants and will actually do what he says. If it feels right then do it!
I think age difference can matter, but also come with a mix of challenges.
As women get older, many of them due to chemistry and hormonal changes have a reduced sex drive. It's no-one's fault. Maybe men too in a lot of cases.
Younger women, for men offer a revisiting in the fun energetic sex drive department. As noted the maturity in an older man, is often an attraction for women.
But fast forward a decade or two, and it's not all going to be romping in the sack, for one of the partners.
I recall a few years ago, an Auzzie mechanic I knew who married a younger woman, possibly 15-25 years younger. She dumped him for one of his younger mechanics. A guy that worked for him.
I think at the time, he was about 65ish, she was 40 something.
Despite his age, he was absolutely devastated. Not that any break up is easy, but he wasn't a spring chicken, and she was in the prime of life. She was attractive, he wasn't anymore, shit happens.
...for an older guy once. He was twice my age but it never developed into a physical relationship. Now that some time has passed it was probably for the best. To answer you question, I don't think age has anything to do with the heart. Never been with a significantly older guy.
