Hellobee Boards

That's twice my age, so probably not. I'm not against older men (if I were still dating, obv), but that's a little too 'older' for me. And, like others, my Dad only just turned 50!

@rachiecakes: I'm a grandma because DH has a daughter older than me lol.

Probably not. I always had better luck with guys closer to my own age.

Yessssss! But I'm older than most of you lovelies! But there are some serious contenders here . . . Daniel Day Lewis, Liam Neeson, Pierce Brosnan, Brad Pitt, Denzel Washington . . .

ETA: Robert Downey Jr. and Rob Lowe are also pushing 50 . . .

@looch: thanks! and I agree on the younger.. I honestly don't think I've ever dated anyone less than 10 years older than me! (didn't really date much anyway, but still..)

@Mrs. Champagne: people say that all the time! he's way younger than me in terms of lifestyle, he's self employed in the music industry, plays on a street hockey league three times a week.. I'm the one that works 40+ hours, takes care of all of our appointments, etc.

@marionberry: hehe

We've been together for well over a decade and always planned to be 'one and done' - I always felt like I was never a 'kid' person based on everyone else's kids, I never babysat, etc. - but now that we have DS, I'd have 10 if I could! Don't know if we'll ever have a second because of our ages... though DH's dad was 52 when he was born, so who knows!

No, I don't think I could.

@rachiecakes: haha I'm the same way... not a kid person at all, hated babysitting, still don't like most other peoples' children...but man, if I can have another DD?? Yes please! And I agree with pps, he doesn't look that much older than you, and y'all are just adorable!!

I would! I tend to like older guys. DH is 10 years older than me, and my ex was....20 years older than me! I'm a couple months shy of 32 so that would be less than my age difference with my ex.

@Bookish: thank you! haha, I never knew that 'mom' was in me until I met DS, he is the center of my universe. I love being a mom more than I never could have imagined.

@sandy: thanks! we'll be celebrating 14 years together in February!

@MsLipGloss: Liam Neeson!!!!

I don't know. I think probably not, but it would depend on the guy. Unfortunately, it would not be Johnny Depp--my The Ex was a poor man's Johnny Depp, and that would just be too much.

Nope, my mom is 52. LOL! My limit is 10yrs, which would be 42.

Oh yeah. Lots of sexy older men out there. People in my family all thought I would end up with an older man. My DH is only 2 years older.

@rachiecakes: Aww! So cute!

Yup, if I were single and he was someone I really liked! I've always dated older though (I think my biggest age gap was ~ 13 years). I think the question totally depends on how old you are though. I'm 33 so it doesn't sound as crazy as @googly-eyes: who is 23! lol!

@shopaholic: you're 33! I always thought that you were younger.

@shopaholic: Right? I don't mean any offense by it but at a certain point you have to stop and wonder what each person brings to the relationship...There are people who have lived beyond their years, but for me that would just be too much. I guess never say never but I can say with 99.999999% confidence no.

ian ziering is 49, so, it all depends!

I would if we had enough in common for a relationship to be likely to succeed. He'd be older than my parents though, so that would be weird.

@Rubies: don't call him old! He is just zexy!!!!

As a 32yo yes, as a 22yo no.
My mil was 23 when she married my then 55year old FIL. Their relationship was a disaster. He already had six kids, most of whom were her age or older. It's still awkward to this day.
