    Yup. My husband is ten years older than me (physically), and I'm 20 years older than him (mentally).

    This. My fiance is 9 years and some change older than me, but still says, "I'm like a sixteen year old." Hard to get the older man experience that way...

    I, er, have dabbled with far older men though... WHERE'S EMMA TO BACK ME UP HERE?

    And by "dabbled," she means "got her *kitten* on."

    It's okay, so have I.

    I dated a girl that was 10 years older. We both had a great time and cared for each other but knew it was not going anywhere.

    Before I was married, I dated a guy 12 years older than me. It was only for a very short time because age and maturity don't necessarily coincide. He still had his house decorated in fraternity memorabilia, paddles, etc. He was 42.

    Yup. Age doesn't matter to me... As long as he's not younger...

    A wise man once told me that men should marry someone half their age + 7 years for various reasons. He should know, he was married 4 times.

    Age may not be a big deal but maturity is.

    I am dating someone who is 8 years older than me. I am naturally attracted to older men. My ex is 16 years older than me. We broke up because he didn't want kids and I did. Anyways, what I like best about dating someone older is that he introduces me to new things. New music, food, tv shows, games, things like that. We have a great time together and always have something to talk about. It not so bad that he's like "what is the facebook"

    Does he have lots of money???

    Seriously, why not? If I loved him, sure would. 10 years seems like nothing to me.

    I am with someone 12 years older ... I've never felt more connected with anyone as I am with him.

    I've generally dated around 10 years older than me (low 30s).




    Is that your picture? Could you do 20 years older??? Bahaha just kidding! But you do have an awesome body!

    Married my late husband aged 20 and he was 30. He helped me grow into the kind of woman I am today and gave me a life that I cherished. Now am married to someone 7 years younger. To me age is just a number it's the man himself I look at :heart:

    I have always dated younger men. I would have no problem dating an older man. I don't think age has anything to do with chemistry.

    Oh ****. The one moment I'm not on the boards. Goddamnit, Shelby!

    My boyfriend is almost 30 years older than I am. I think he's sexy. We hide under the covers and pretend that something outside of the covers is going to bite off my nose if I stick it out. So we are basically both the same age mentally....6 or so.

    I love having an old man with wisdom and perspective. And the sex is better. I love it when he beats me.

    I have dated older guys in the past. I see nothing wrong with it.

    I wouldn't. I don't necessarily think it's wrong, I just think that for me the generational difference would be too much.

    I have a hard time relating to Gen Xers. My two oldest brothers are 12 and 14 years older than me and it's like they might as well be from a different planet!
