Can a relationship between a 22 years old woman and a 35 years old man work?

[Anonymous]

So I am starting to fall in love with a 35 years old. I feel that we suit each other. He has the maturity, intelligence and great personality I want and need that I could never find in any of my exes. Also I am totally into his amazing voice that makes me feel weak. His body type is not what I usually go for, but I feel in love with his body as well. I am generally strong and independent and matur ever since I was younger because of many reasons. Which often made it hard to be together with guys in my own age or a little bit older than me. I felt like they were boys and not men and I had to take care of them for things to work, as if I was their mother and not a partner. But I also want to feel like a woman in a real man's arms and not have to shoulder everything alone or being the only one to put in so much effort in a relationship while the guy take, take and only giving a little back. I know I was stupid enough to let myself being treated that way and for putting others needs before myself. But mistakes are meant to be learned and not to make the same mistakes often.

I ve been dating and in relationships now and then ever since I was 17 year old. I ve only ever felt In love once in my life and this feels like a second time. Even tho I am embarrassed to say how many guys, I ll still say it. It's the truth anyway. A total of 10 guys. And I was so tired mentally, my brain and body and wanted to focus on anything except love. Was ready to be single for many years and just have animals to talk to, maybe cats or dogs.

But...😅

We have only talked for some days, we live in different countries, and of course the age gap is a big new record for me.
I know I may sound crazy, but I can't help it. Haven't felt butterflies this many times for many years. I feel like if he ever asks to be together, I am sure I will say yes directly. I don't usually take this kind of risk in life, but my gut is strongly telling me to not let this man go. To keep him and commit fully.

Well i can't tell you what to do
You sound very mature. You sound like you know what you want. You looked at all different angles and that's what you have to do

Nobody knows if it's gonna work even in a regular relationship where two people are the same age

I start laughing every time some one ask a question like this, and then you have all the girls saying no. No, no. He just wants to use you blah blah somebody your own age..

And i have to shake my head. Because. The samething could would and hassle happen when you date someone your own age and worse things really

If I was to say anything, it would be try it. You'll know within a couple months if it's gonna work or not. Do it for the experience.
To figure out who what how you want in your life. Because you know somebody older. It's gonna treat you way different way better than somebody your own age

But it's just depends on the two people that's what it's all about really

And like any other relationship pay attention be honest with your self if something doesn't frmeel right then leave

Yes, if the both of you have great chemistry and connection together, that’s all that matters, don’t listen to negative people about the age gap, Age gaps mean shit , especially if the both of you are adults , which you both are , so yes , it can definitely work

Ah, feeling those butterflies, huh? That's the magic of love working its wonders! As a relationship coach, my aim here is to help you navigate these exciting waters. An age gap is just a number, darling! If you've found someone who makes your heart sing, that's what truly matters. His maturity seems to complement your desires for a real partnership, and that's a great start. Just take your time, stay true to what you need, and let things unfold naturally. Feel the love and embrace the adventure—who knows? 🤗

Age difference is not an issue.

Living in a different country, is going to be a pain in the arse.

A 35 year old is a loser if he has enough in common with a 22 year old to date. He has more than 50% more life experience

It can and it often does.

Not long term.
