[Punkyenvy]

well you see im 20 and my boyfriend is 32.....he's really good looking, sweet, caring and so romatic and when it comes to sex ..its just amazing...and he says he loves me and i love him to ..but sometimes the whole age thing is a issue...so i came here for some opinions....is it ok???? :

[DarkOne12]

Sure its okay. I however suggest you guys take it very slow. You need to make sure that this isn't just him wishing a younger girl for playtime. Does he hide you from his friends or has he shown you off like you were his serious partner? If he hides you or uses you to show off like you were a trophy, not a partner, than he may be wanting the younger booty. If he's proud of you and isn't ashamed to show it; than he may be sincere.

Do your parents know?

my parents dont know about us....he is proud of me and isn't ashamed to show it...he doesnt try to hide and he doesnt show me off ..he treats me with alot of respect

If you search around and look up posts by COL90...she received all sorts of "SAGE" advice on the exact same thing you speak of...and in the end things didn't turn out so well....but of course..your situation "must" be different

Society does not like relationships that seem exploitive and that's why you two are getting the heat. BUT if you two are happy and you can endure and have fun with this - then go for it!

The greatest barrier I have heard men talk about w/dating someone in their early 20's (or w/ an age gap of 10+ years) is the difference in maturity which has inveitably,with time, led to the demise of the relationship.

(except when she is talking about something that happened in HS and she realizes I was 6 ). Age is only a number.

ps. The higher that number gets, the more experience there is behind it![/QUOTE]

My GF is 43 & I'm 54. I think as we get up into middle age the difference isn't as much a factor. She just had a birthday and we went out with all her friends. Naturally, the age deal came up. Don't normally think about it that much but it was sort of amuseing to realize she was like 6yo when I graduated high school. She told me the other day she never realized before that Jimmy Hendrix was a black man! LOL Things like that we find amusing but otherwise, like you said, only a number.

I personally do not date men younger than 40 years of age but I do know men who date/marry women in their 20's and 30's and women who think 18 to 24 years are a man's best.
