Older dating younger. / myLot

Hello, I'm just curious as to what everyone's thinking is on older dating younger. Do you think there's a difference when an older man dates a younger female, and what ages do you seem it is more appropriate? Do you see a problem with older women dating younger men and why? I personally am an older woman dating a younger male, we've been together almost a year it's amazing I love it. I've dated older before and it didn't go well we stayed together 9 years but it was a toxic relationship. I'm curious to know what everybody thinks thanks have a great night!!

I personally think men should be older. And no more than five years in age gap. But everyone is different

As for me,age is just a number.I can date either an older or younger guy than me as long as he is mature and respectful

I think it is better to date an older man to date a woman with not more than 5 years age gap. I have a friend got married to a man with 10 years gap and the relationship is so strong

I think if understanding and maturity level match, age gap does not bother much. Personally I like to be in the same age group.

I don't feel age should matter.

There should be age gap, older men and younger women, well everyone has their opinion

If the age gap is 25 or more I would think maybe the younger is only after money/comfort

but there's always an EXEMPTION. If the older one is sooooo handsome/beautiful/bright I'd fall in love too even if he has no money. It's not always about the age.

But if the age gap is less than 20 I still find it normal.

My first marriage was to a man that was 16 years older then me. Shame we found out to late we had nothing in common. We are now divorced but remained friends. I do not find anything wrong in age difference. Always follow your heart.

I think it's difficult,But I have friends who dating older people To be able to pay school. Most say that it is difficult but They need to finish school So they end up forgetting their age,becouse need money To be able to pay school, clothes among others.
