Girls going out with older men are "Expected" and genuinly looked at as a gold digger. "What could an younger woman realy see in an older man?"

now with that said im 22yo male and i can say my average conquest is around 35. now as a man i will tell you its purly sexual. i do enjoy women my own age but when it comes down to it i find older women know how to real satisfy me.

It all come down to what your are in the relation for and that both of you know the circumstansis and you anrt pretending its somthing else. be honest ifs it sex, money, or truly love make sure both partys agree

thats my 2c so...

Rosebanks, You said that you are comfortable with his age. Fine.But I would like to ask you, whether you are in long term or short term relationship. If its short term, its fine. But in long term you should think of age difference. when you would be 35 , he would be 47. Then it will matter much. This is my assumption. You think of it. May be lets see what are other's opinion, especially thinking long term relationship.

No when he's 47 and she's 35 - it will not matter at all!

EH, it's your life. Do what you want. Just don't expect him to be around for the long haul. Heck, don't expect guys your age to be around for the long haul either. If it happens, great, if it doesn't don't be surprised or disappointed. It was unlikely in any event.

I briefly dated a woman 10 years my junior. It was interesting to speak with her, and lord have mercy was she gorgeous, but all said and done, cheaper and easier to pay and get what I really wanted than to go through the mental machinations required to get into her panties. Just not worth the time or effort. Of course, I'm not so skilled at such things.

Another buddy of my, infinitely more learned in respect to such matters is bedding 4 women about 10 years or more younger than himself. Such is the benefit of learning and experience. Me, I gotta pay.

Sigh...

My ex,and still friend, is twice my age. I knew that i wanted and what my ex wanted out of the relationship. We had/have a good relationship because we talked about the good and bad things. I have alway been a realistic and it is a taboo when there is an big age gap, but if you are okay with it...people can suck air.
The question you need to ask yourself is do you feel comfortable with him, his friends and his family? if it come to that and verse versa. Its all fun and games in the bed room and close doors. It's when you're out in public that will shape your relationship.
