    Jerry Seinfeld covered this in "The Switch":
    When Jerry goes to his girlfriend's apartment he meets Laura, Sandy's roommate, who does laugh at his jokes. Later, he talks with George, saying he intends to try the "switch". George declares it is impossible: no one in Western history has ever switched a girlfriend for her roommate. Jerry and George spend long hours devising a plan to accomplish the switch. Finally, George comes up with the plot: Jerry will suggest a ménage à trois, Sandy will be disgusted, break up with Jerry, and tell Laura, who in turn will feel flattered, thus paving the way for Jerry to date her.

    ** UPDATE **

    Renee and I went out two more times, but I decided it wasn't going to work. Turns out she was somewhat of a dud in the personality department when I really got to know her. She wasn't smiley, lighthearted, flirty, and upbeat.. I found her to be quite a downer.

    We had a nice talk and will remain friends (Facebook friends at least).

    She has a daughter who's 22 and a certified babe. Would it be out of bounce if I asked Renee to hook me up with her daughter? Being totally serious here.. though I think that'd totally piss her off, which wouldn't be good. But what do I have to lose?

    What would the men and women of MFP do?

    Good luck with that. Even if mom is okay with it, I suspect the daughter might object.

    Oh yes, when out of Bounce, I recommend Costco, they have those really large boxes for a reasonable price.

    I am married to a man 18 years my senior very happily.
    My male cousin is married to a woman much older then him as well (not sure of the exact age dif there).

    Age is just a number. If you're both adults, happy, and committed I see no problems.

    What do you have to lose?

    How about your self-respect and your dignity?

    Of course that's assuming you had any in the first place.

    When I was in my early 20's I dated somebody in their late 40's.... Went really well and I loved it! Only reason we split is because he wanted more serious but I was too young to get that serious and settle down. I still enjoyed having too much fun

    That would be the extent of it in my opinion. If I was single I could see hanging and having fun with someone younger, but I wouldn't think it would be for the rest of my life or such. To much difference in life goals and all.

    i was married to a man almost 20 years my senior. it worked well. recently, i dated a younger guy. that worked ok, but he kind of bored me. it's just that we had different points of reference. you're older than he was and i'm sure you're not boring. try it and see where it goes. even if it goes nowhere, you'll learn something. and so will she.

    LOL @ the responses!

    I'm not going to ask her about her daughter. I'm not afraid of getting rejected by the daughter, I just don't want to piss off Renee. Even though I'm not feeling her, it just wouldn't feel right to ask her.

    But, after reading the responses, it's no wonder why there are so many beta males who are afraid to approach women out there. Just because a woman is younger, slender, tanned, and attractive, it doesn't mean you shouldn't go after her of be afraid that she might not be into you.

    If I learned anything about life, it's that no one is out of anyone's league. Sure, there might be some rejection, but that should NEVER stop you from approaching a good looking woman, even if she is younger and very attractive. Having confidence is a large part of it.
  • What happened to us mike?! I thought we had something special! :cry:
  • Personally I only date men older than me. I'm 28 and if you aren't at least 36 you are out. Usually the men I date are 16 years or older than me.

    This sounds pretty ideal to me. We work hard during the week and like our private down time from M-Thurs. Then go out all weekend, go to bars, events, dinners, and rock each others world every Friday and Saturday night. Perfect.

    Yeah, I'm definitely going for it. Meeting up again this weekend for date #2. I'm not going to rush anything, just going to let it happen.
    Aha. So you're looking for a "Weekend Fun FWB/FB".... sounds like she is as well!
    ** UPDATE **

    Renee and I went out two more times, but I decided it wasn't going to work. Turns out she was somewhat of a dud in the personality department when I really got to know her. She wasn't smiley, lighthearted, flirty, and upbeat.. I found her to be quite a downer.

    Translation:
    Renee and I went out two more times, but I decided it wasn't going to work despite the fact in my original post I said she was the ideal woman. Whilst she was stylish, tanned, in shape, big boobs, very attractive, etc., it just didn't work. We are both busy professionals but it just didn't work. Turns out she was somewhat of a dud in the personality department when I really got to know her even though I originally said she was funny, flirty, and great to talk to. She wasn't smiley, lighthearted, flirty, and upbeat.. I found her to be quite a downer despite I originally said she was my ideal woman. She was my ideal woman.

    She dumped me.
    She has a daughter who's 22 and a certified babe. Would it be out of bounce if I asked Renee to hook me up with her daughter? Being totally serious here.. though I think that'd totally piss her off, which wouldn't be good. But what do I have to lose?

    What would the men and women of MFP do?
    Yes, it would be out of BOUNDS... it would also be inconsiderate, offensive, uncouth, rude, impolite, tacky, vulgar, tasteless, cheap, filthy, impolite, cruel, foul, unrefined, crass, unsophisticated, desperate, dishonorable, malicious, MEAN and LOW.

    You sure you and Renee split on good terms?????? Asking her daughter out would fall into the category of "vindictive".....

    PS - For the record my last BF was 12 years younger and we had a wonderful relationship - he looked older, I looked younger so it really worked and no one was the wiser about our age difference except for us. To boot - we are still on good terms.....
  • You're not the only one attracted in older people, there's just something about them.

    I used to be very attracted to a guy 14 years older than me. Always have been attracted in older men.
