    My husband is 9 years younger than me. He is the youngest (from my age) that I've ever been with.

    I did date a guy that was 10 years older than me. He was an asshat though lol.

    I think you should stand by your decision. Can a 40 give birth to a perfectly healthy child? Of course, but the FACTS show that many risk increase for mother and child once a mother is 30 years or older. Same reason why my husband and I have said that how ever many children we want, we have to have before 30. Not just due to this, but because my husband has seen what its like 1st hand to have older parents and the things they miss out on, and their lower energy levels. I think if your older and can pop those bad boys out, all the power to ya, but facts are facts.

    For some odd reason I was insulted by this. I'm sorry but I'm an older parent. And I can tell you first hand that my "energy level" is just as good as it was when I was 20 (and had my oldest). I don't believe my little ones will EVER miss out on things. In fact, I believe that I am a much better parent as an older parent than when I was brand new. With age comes wisdom.

    I dont care what your "FACTS" are. FACTs also state that there are many, many older parents who do great.
  • My hubby is 11 years older than me. i had my daughter at a young age and couldn't see myself with a child and a guy my age. I tried at first but realized that most younger guys aren't up to taking on a relationship and helping be a parent. I love the age difference!! We get along great and about the same maturity level most of the time. LOL
