It is possible.But i don't think it is OK. These are my reasons:
1. A guy is ment to be the head in a relationship. He is ment to have more experience than the lady. Stronger than the lady, so that he will be able to comfort the lady when there is problems. Once the lady is older she will not be submissive in some cases.And they will end up braeking up.
2.ladies age faster than men. A man that is 10yrs older than his wife will seem to be her age mate when they get to the age of say 60. So if a lady that is 10yrs older, when they get to that 60 or even less she'll look like his mother. Even before then.For example when the guy is 45 the lady will be 55. By then the lady is at menopause whereas the guy is still very strong. There is no doubt the guy will date someone else -some one younger than Himself.
3.It is generally not acceptable. You'll end up living in desolation and rejection which is not worth it..
It is still good(although not very good) for a guy to be 10yrs older than the lady.But for the lady to be, does not make much sence.No matter how much you think you love in..............It is 90% more likely you guys will break up than that it will work out well. THINK TWICE

i can see you are bent at dating him (against all odds) Go ahead its all your choice. In my land there is a proverb that translates: a child can not run stomach pain from what she loves eating or willing eat..I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST

That's the time when you can measure how much you love each other. If you will listen to what others would say I guess you will not even reach 2 years for that. But I know of course that's the most difficult thing to handle. Most of the time its the reason why couples separate they are not tough enough to just ignore people around.

Well an older man to a younger woman is still a common relationship. Me too I would rather be with an older man than someone on the same age or below. But of course I'm not preventing myself from falling in love with younger guys. Its just that I think younger guys are not that mature enough to handle such kind of relationship. There is a tendency that generation of each can become a big issue.

For me, it is not okay but for others it is just fine with them. It is better id the man is older than the lady but if the older is much older than the man, it is not good. The tendency is that when they are together, the man will look for a younger woman his age. I have seen so many relationship like this. The woman is much older than the man and then, they have troublesome marriage for the man is always tempted to go with younger woman like his age. It is not good,,,

I think it is ok as long as they are really in love with each other and both are capable of satisfying each others needs. For me some people really prefer it that way that their partner is way too old for them.

my answer is yes coz i am 31 right now and my boyfriend is only 25. i dont think ages still matter this time. the only matter right now is both of you love each other and express it the way you like it. it is ok for me coz the woman can manage the relationship will when it comes that she have a younger boyfriend and even the man also can do the same. lets just give them a chance to love each other, we cannot dictate anyone and how to love a person.

I think it is possible for a person that young to be in love with someone 10 years older than him, and vise versa. Many people thinks it's okay for men to date women 10 years younger than him, so it's possible for it to be vise versa. IF there is good communication and attraction then it's possible.

My ex-partner has a girlfriend who is 22 years his junior, she is 22, he is 44. I didn't agree with it at first only because of my 9 yr old daughter. She is very impressionable at this tender age and I was so worried about that, but, anyway thats a whole different story. I think if it is alright for a man to date a younger woman, then why does it make it any different for a woman to date a younger man. She should feel good that a younger man finds her attractive, I say good on her.

"All is fair in love" and "Age doesn't matter." are all the cliches we can associate with this topic. I personally know a woman who is 48 years old got married to a 31 year old man. They are happy so I guess it works.

Age is nothing but a number. He's grown enough to make his decisions, and there is nothing at all wrong with it! Love has no age.

Actually, I've just posted a discussion on that issue. However, mine's a bit different. I totally understand you, since I'm dating a guy who's 20 years older than me. We assume several times that this is not socially accepted, but we can't fight our feelings, can we? And in a long run, you'll see that this difference between your ages won't even notice. Aren't there many young women who marry old guys?

Age is merely numbers for us to count, but love conquers any number differences right?
