How do you feel about age gap relationships?

[10bear]

I'm 47 and find that the women that I am attracted to are all in their early 30s. After being off tue market for several years, I'm nervous about getting back out there. I have tested the waters some and the feedback seems positive, but is it awkward for women when a guy a guy flirts and you are interested but find out there is a 15 year age gap?

So you are strictly attracted to Women in their early 30's, makes my 36 year old behind too old for you and I find it funny... not for the age gap, because hey, age is nothing but a number, but deciding WHAT NUMBER is more attractive to you is a little off to me... But ye generally I don't mind Age gaps, what I mind is that people are attracted to CERTAIN AGES and most of them STICK to those age groups

[10bear]

I'm not stuck on age. It's just the women that I seem to be attracted to are generally in their mid-thirties. So you being 36 doesn't really matter to me. It's more about if i'm physically and emotionally attracted to you.

[10bear]

And yes I do find you attractive!

I always date older men, but max 10 years older.
Age hap doesn’t matter as long as you both adults.

[10bear]

Is there a way that a 47 year old man could approach you that might change your mind about your 10 year max?

[itsannalee]

Only if he is rich

[10bear]

And then there's that also. I wouldn't date anyone that my money is the decision maker.

[itsannalee]

Yeah, makes sense. Just like I wouldn't date a poor, whom money would be a problem for him.

[10bear]

That makes total sense , but does he really have to be rich? Can't he just be financially stable?

[itsannalee]

Why would i date a poor old men for nothing? What can i get from him?

He gets my young body, what can i get from him? And when he gets older and can’t be able to make money, i need to take care of him. Lol

Old men with no money and still want to date young woman are shameless.

[10bear]

You aren't the only one I've heard make that same statement. I hope you find your balance if you haven't already.

I have always dated older. Even my first boyfriend when I was 12 was almost 3 years older.

If an older man approaches you, should he just ignore the fact that there is an age gap, or should he address it? In your opinion that is.
