Age Doesn't Matter At All

Do you agree that age is not a matter anymore in a relationship? Which do you prefer to have in life? Younger or older than you?  Historically, women have tended to date men a couple of years older than themselves, but now older dating rules have broken down because we're meeting people in affinity groups rather than age-groups.

Dating younger becomes a novel pleasure today, younger women /men are more hot, more exciting  because of their freshness and youthful body, is this true?  But other looks for older one, because they want someone to hold them or to manage them well.  Other men  says, older women are more sexually savvy, no hassle, don't have many hang-ups like younger and could even teach them something new.

The primary challenges  in this relationship are the differences in opinions, interests, hobbies, and some viewpoint in life, but if you believe you’re fit enough to handle dating younger or older, you  won’t mind anything. There are younger who are matured enough and there were older who are still immature. 

In my own opinion, age is not a matter if you were really in love, as long as you know how to handle situation and relationship right, maybe age won't be a problem for both. What about you? What do you think about age matter in a relationship?

  2. Age shouldn't matter because when you totally connect with someone and know that you've found your soul mate for life, that is all that should matter. That being said, it has always been more acceptable for older men to be involved with much younger women than vice-versus.

    We are living in times when the phrase 'cougar' is popular and applauded! It's nice to see that this is becoming acceptable in the public eye. Personally, I have set a '10 year' rule for myself. Ten years older or younger . . . umm, preferably younger *wink* lol!

    I don't think I'd feel comfortable if there was a 20 year age difference; me being the older one. People would most likely think I am that man's mother lol!

    So to sum it, I guess I'm saying age doesn't matter, if it falls in an acceptable range of maybe 10-15 years. I think 20 and beyond could become an issue for the couple. If not in the beginning, later on down the line. I am still referring to the woman being older. It still remains more taboo than a young woman falling for a man 20+ years older.

    I agree with you that age does not necessarily mean more mature. I think many young men are looking for more mature women these days. The younger ones may turn their heads, but not entice their brains.

    OK, I just wrote a book lol! Hope it made some sense :-) I'm very happy that you shared this post again, especially for people like myself, who were not blessed to be connected to you at that particular time :-) Hope you're having a great day, dear! x0x

    1. I am 17 nearly 18 I've had my experiances with 'boys' my age which have treat me like utter poo to be frank, been foolish I've done anything and gave them all I could friends I decided to go and work, full time I dropped 6form in my eyes was best thing I did as I've learnt a lot and have matured more I've dated me rangin from 22-31, not a tart just dates and been together, never thought that the day would come when I'd meet someone age 31, and have so much in common from music to fashion dvds food etc.. He's showed me at an early age I feel that yes people will judge me however around him I'm myself I can burp anything! He looks after me very well never a day goes by where he doesn't appreciate me vice versa, parents know him he's from my area, I work he works etc.. Untill I met matthew I never wouldve imagined myself been with someone older than me but I guess as time goes by you realise who you are matthews shown me to be confidant and chase my dreams been with him few months now but seriously never ever have I met someone like him its perfect, never argue and trust is not anissue! I agree with your post! I've found the one, and it doesn't matter about the 13yr age gap however, he is moving over to Australia next year, I'm going to be lost. He has mentioned me moving possibly over there so we're going to see how it turns out fingures crossed I can go with my heart and soul mate!! :) x

  4. Age is just number .Actual thing is mental age. If man and women are on same mental level no mater what their age is then who cares ?

  5. I prefer my age or a bit older than me. Younger men's or boy's looks don't really attract me.
    I read this book about a relationship between a 65 year old man and a 16 year old girl before. It's kind of awkward. But the book is just fantasy.
    I think at some point people will always find a reason to say that age does matter...
    I mean come on... Would you really go out with a 65 year old man? (Taken that you're not after his money coz he's about to die).

  6. Hmm.. I think age shouldn't matter, but it really something to be considered. I mean, you can love someone older or younger than you.. no crime in that. :) I think it would be great to date younger men, but I really prefer someone my age or older than me. hehe..

    Followed you on twitter, btw. :)

  8. I believe age is just a number. It's about your connection with that person. If there is a big age difference it may matter later in life to the youngest of the couple. They may find themselves aging quicker and becoming a caretaker. Something to ponder.

And am so happy that you've trust us here and share about your personal rule or insight about this topic. Well, I agree with you, more man usually loves older woman. Some reason is, younger man love pampering them.lols..just kidding! :) But, it's true, age not a matter anymore as long as they understand each other and they know what commitment means. :)

    I love this Sis, yes Princess Fiona is 100% right here! For me, age doesn't matter at all! Love does not recognize age for sure, or they say age doesn't get older! As long as you love each other, and most importantly as long as you understand and trust each other. Without trust and understanding, I don't know the outcome, lol :) Thank you for sharing this again Sis :)

  21. It depends on individuals. For me, age isn't a barrier.

  22. for me age doesn't matter in a relationship as long as you both understand each other, the matter to me is the trust and honesty, this is great one my friend...

  23. I think it all depends on the people.
    My husband and I are the same age but I have a friend that is seeing a younger (10 years younger)
    She is 45 and he's 35 and they seem to have a wonderful relationship!

    I do think if their is a really big difference in the ages it could matter as the couple ages.

    Good thought provoking post!
    Thank you!

  26. @ Margie,

    Thank you so much for sharing, It's true it depends on the individual. And your right too, if the difference is really big there might be some consequences as the couple ages, but still it's from both how they will handle it.:)

    Thanks a lot Margie for your valuable comment! :) Good morning! :)

  28. i fell in love with a dentist which is already 35 years old and i'm still 23 years old. but she told me , she only sees me as her younger brother. how can i handle this case? but we really enjoy when we're together and she's also thankful that she had known me. maybe she's just afraid of the people's comment. we always exchange messages everyday through mobile phone. i always greet her every morning and told her to eat her breakfast, lunch, snacks and dinner and goodnight. and she finds me sweet and caring. but i told her that i see not as my older sister. and she said she understands what i feel. how can i make her fall in love with me?

    1. bro, you can't make her fall in love with you. i'm sure you're a nice guy! keep up your gentlemanship and make her proud of you ... meaning focus on achieving your highest potential of becoming a doctor or an engineer or a certified licensed plumber .. get it! peace!

  29. in a relationship AGE should not matter. the 40's and 50's are the new 20's and 30's they look vibrant and they really look after themselves. in my opinion, what should really matter is your partner's being - your partner's personality, traits, past and/or present background. if your partner has a history (or presently) - a pedophile , a child molester, a thief, a liar, an alcoholic, a gambler, a deadbeat parent and your list goes on ...then DON'T even think twice.... RUN > > > >

  35. I fell in love with a 55 year old man he is a painter and Im only 22. He is a nice guy, but the first time I met him, I don't want to have a relationship with a 33 years age gap... I couldn't handle that situation coz he's making effort to be with me, and that time I was falling in love with him everyday and we end up as a boyfriend girlfriend. And now I reliased that age doesn't matter as long as you love each other
