    I'm 25 and my boyfriend is 42, I couldn't be happier and have never had such a good relationship. That being said I don't think when I was 18 I would have gone anywhere near a 36 year old man, but ppl grow and mature at different rates and at the end of the day he makes me happy so the age gap means nothing to me.

    BUT he didn't know me as a child, only as an adult - I would find it creepy being hit on by someone who basically sat by and watched me grow up into something "legal" for him to date!

    My wife and I were the same ages as you two when we got married 27 years ago, except she's the older one. Obviously this turned into a good and long lasting relationship. I know plenty of people who married their own age, and it was no guaranteed of success.

    Leave the legal adults alone if they want to be together.
    To the Legal Adults: leave the kids alone.

    Very difficult question really it would always be difficult for a much younger person being with an older person. Its not noww its in the future when things change in my view.

    You take me I am 52 if I was to date someone who was say 30 I should be so lucky lol there is a huge age gap as you get older I just feel that when the problems arise.

    If you talking about purely a date or something sexual then as long as they are or legal and consenting I guess its ok.



    I have two daughters 25 and 23 the youngest is with a guy who is 36 they both seem very happy and very much in love

    If an old man was hitting on my daughter and it was unwanted attention...I'd tear both of his arms off and beat him to death with them.

    Then tell him to have a nice day. :smile:

    For me, there's a huge difference between a 48 y/o guy dating an 18 y/o girl vs same guy dating same girl, who he's known from the cradle.

    I use girl because girl is less formal than woman and guy is less formal than man.

    The biggest problem for me here would be the fact that this is a girl that he basically saw grow up. I live in a community where we are close knit. My son is now 20 years old and I have watched all of his friends grow up. There is no way I can ever look at them except for as that child that was out here skateboarding in my backyard or playing video games. My point, if he was around this girl while she was growing up and he is friends with his parents, first there should be respect there for the friends and secondly (not sure how close they are) but I would think when seeing a child grow up you still see them as that child. I know I do. BUT THEN AGAIN THIS WORLD IS FULL OF PERVS AND HE PROBABLY DOES STILL SEE HER AS THAT CHILD !!!!!

    So do you plan on informing her dad? Whether the guys still talk much anymore doesn't matter. Dude crossed a line and that needs to be addressed - not here in this forum, but by the one who has been his daughter's proctector since birth. You and she need to sit him down and tell him what happened. The last thing you want the daughter to think is that no one stepped up for her on this.

    oh dear!

    I can't imagine being interested in a woman under 33 or over 46. I'm 42. So I appear to have a leeway at the moment of 9 years younger & 4 years older.

    When I was 17 I was interested in girls from 16 to 20. So my leeway was 1 year younger & 3 years older.

    When I was 25, it was 22 to 27. 3 years younger and 2 years older.

    So does my leeway expand as I get older?

    But come on, 18 vs 42! I'd treat them as a kid sister if we had anything in common. I wouldn't allow it to be physical. What would we talk about? Politics and the economy? Or perhaps X-Factor & Overdrive?

    If girl's who like older guys have daddy issues, then what issues do guys have who like younger girls?
    I can't say what drives people. I also can't judge them when they're not breaking the law.
    I can say it makes me uncomfortable.

    Self-defense training! I recommend everyone have some self-defense training.

    And yes, that guy is seriously a creep and I would have knocked him cold if my daughter didn't beat me to it.

    So NOT okay. It's not the age difference that creeps me out, it's the fact that he's watched her grow up from a baby! From what it sounds like, he's been practically family. He needs a talking to, ESPECIALLY because she's upset.
    If that were my daughter, the guy would be getting a beat down.

    My hubby is 12 years old than me. Its a maturity thing. MOST guys that are my age are just too freaking childish for me.

    Sadly, this is more or less it. As someone previously noted, what's strange is that a 40+ year old man would want to date an 18 year old girl. Have sex, sure. But date? It's very rare, but not impossible, that there can be an intellectual attachment when there is such a large age difference. What are they going to talk about???

    On the other hand, as noted above, many men, especially American men, are quite immature for their age. Stuck in a Peter Pan complex. Just look at how they dress (baggy shorts, sports shirt, baseball cap, sneakers - add jeans for the winter). Look at what they talk about.

    And while an 18 year old girl is almost certainly too young for a 48 year old man, my guess is that there are many 27-35 year old women who are sick of dating "boys" their same age or slightly older for whom an intellectual discussion is why designated hitters are bad for baseball.
