Would you date or marry a younger man?

Actually I have never thought about it, Im sure that if you are in love age has absolutely nothing at all to do with it...

Hello well i would have to say yes my husband is younger than me and i don't see anything wrong with it! we have our ups and downs. but i don't think it have anything to do with the age difference!

I've never been able to date anyone more than 2 years older than me or two years younger than me. I'm not sure why, just comfort level I guess. I dont have anything against people who date people alot older or younger than them. Although I admit I wasn't thrilled when my 20 year old sister was dating a 42 year old man with 6 kids. lol. anyways, so i guess my answer to your question is most likely I wouldn't, but I guess if I weren't married, I wouldn't be totally closed off to the idea.

Im still very single bu I cant think of marrying or even dating a younger man. I have younger brothers and it would be freaky on my part dating as young as them. I dont want to judge but I am not comfortable dating younger ones, not unless if I dont know how old they are, if they act like a mature one I would not be able to notice it, but for me age really does matter. Its ok to date an older man than a younge one for me. Hope you have anice day and happy mylotting.

I think sometimes it could be a disaster. If I loved them, I would marry a younger man. For the moment my husband is older than me by 3 years, I think that is a good age range to be together.

in my responce no because i am a guy lol

I think that is my problem I havd married and dated younger men. I have tryed dating older ones but it never worked out lol. Maybe it will later on.

I dated a younger guy, actually 17 years younger, but he was very mature and we enjoyed each other's company, we were friends more than anything. I am living with a wonderful man that is 2 years younger than me, if that counts lol Would I have married the much younger one, no, my daughters were pretty much grown and out on their own and he had 2 small boys.

I, like you, thought I would never date a younger man. Not for me. That's it. But a year ago I met my boyfriend, who is almost 6 years younger than me, and I decided I'd give it a try, for no reason. Honest, I thought we wouldn't last a day, but he was nice and I was trying to leave my prejudice behind. I came from a long time alone, after a long realationship with a man older than me but immature and, let's face it, a mama's boy... said to myself, what the heck, it won't hurt you to br more open minded, and see what good comes of it. And here we are, a year after that, very much in love, and trying to make the age difference a minor subject. Of course it's not easy, but it's not immpossible either. Wish us luck! =)

I was just about to sign off and noticed this post. Well my friend I am here to say that I respect your perceptions...even though I think they are unfounded. I started dating and a year later married a man 12 years younger than I am. Initially I was a little unsure about it and did the math and wondered how things would be as we got older. Here we are going into our 18th year together as life and business partners and we are happier than many who have partners who are around the same age. My hubs thinks all women should marry younger men because women outlive men anyway. His rationale is that they would live a longer, happier life together rather than the man dying first and leaving his wife alone. He also thinks that men get set in their ways. Many of my women friends envy the fact that my hubby keeps up with me when many of theirs have turned into couch potatoes. So heartache...not for me. Disastrous outcomes...not for us. Having said all this the key to our success has nothing to do with our ages...or the differences within them. We are life and business partners and the reason both ventures are successful is because we love each other and are committed to building the best life possible at every stage of it. We take responsibility for the choices we make and the effect they have on each other and do course corrections when things no longer work. If couples follow along that path any relationship can be a satisfying one...regardless of the age. Is is only a number...what really matters is who is inside the body...not how old they are. So there...I just offered you another one of my 'perspectives.' In my view I'd give a big 'Yes' to any woman who wants to date a younger man. You might just find the love of your life as I did and am I thankful I got over myself enough and concern about age differences to allow that to happen! Sure works for me! Raia

I'm not married yet but I dated with younger men before. Two of my sisters got married to men way younger than them. One got married to someone 9 years younger, and the other to someone 6 years younger. And things are really okey. They get along well. For me, it's not the age that matters here. It's the maturity of the person.Even if you marry or date someone who is older he can still bring disaster. So it's not the age. It's more on how the relationship grows and how they both care for each other. =)

i don't think so. i've sort of liked a couple of guys before who are younger, but i don't think i'd ever date one. i obviously have nothing against them, i'm just personally attracted to older guys. 95% of the guys i've liked throughout my life have been older. not even the same age as me usually! always older - which is why i love that my boyfriend's seven years older than me. it's great.

I have no experiece about dating a younger man but I think if you two fall in love with each other, the age is not a problem any more. hehe Best wishes to you!

In my experience, I had such a situation twice and those guys were 10 younger than me. The first time he refused our relationships and the second time I did it. because I realizes this diference is too big and we have no a lot in common.

I did date a younger guy but that was before I was married. It turned out to be a disaster. He was always wanting to know where I was going. He was so jealous I had to end the relationship. I think he was too imature.

I've already married a younger man, but he's only 9 months younger then me. If he were to die I don't think that I would remarry. My sister and I always say that after having kids there is no way that we'd ever let another man see us naked. Only the man responsible for our plumper, stretched out bodies gets the pleasure of seeing us naked!! LOL.

As long as it was maybe 1 year younger or a couple of months younger then I am. I think its sick when girls date men who are old enough to be their grandfathers so why should it be any different for guys.

Hello beauty queen. In our realistic life, there are many cases that women get married to younger men. I think that it is ok to have this kind of marriage or love, which we call here in China, sister-brother love. If I were not married, I would choose some lady older than me, as I think that she might be more caring and considerate to me than a younger lady. lol

umm,..my girlfriend is olderthan me ...i dont know what she thinks ...but i think we get along fine... Regards Harry

I am married now so I can only say no at this time. But I really don't think the age makes a difference. I think it's the maturity. Some men are very mature at a younger age than some women. So really it depends on the man. I have a sister that lives with a guy that is 10 years her junior. But at their ages I don't think it matters too much. They are 55 and 45 years old and have been together for 5 years now. At that age it doesnt' matter, but at 25 and 15 or, 28 and 18, it would matter. The guy would be child bate.
