Age-gap relationships are not socially constructed, but have evolved.
Mina,
Be open and communicate how you feel about him. Maybe he worries, like me, that being 57 and loving a 32 year old woman will be unfair to her in 10-15 years. I’m falling in love with a beautiful redhead and her three kids. I worry about how she will be in 10-15 years. Not about fidelity, but here being in her prime when I’m older.
I’m .holding back emotionally with her but I know her kids see how much I love her. I have approached the issue a few times to see her pull back as well. Time to talk, see what his fears are.
Best of luck.
I am very much in love with a man 20 years my senior. I am 30 and he is 50. We are both divorced. I fell in love two years ago and I know that ever since he has a huge crush on me, too. But he doesn’t want to date me because of the age gap. I am totally devastated. I am trying to convince him since about one year but am not very successful. This hurts so much. I fully agree! I’m in love with a man who’s 10 years older than me, and people keep telling me he can’t love me because of the gap. He doesn’t really know I exist around the town which is sadder. So it’s kind of one sided at the moment. Hopefully things get better. Wish you all the best of luck! :) I am 36 and my boyfriend is 50. We knew each other for several years and hung out as friends a few times before we ever dated – been dating 19 months now. Now we are living together. I’ve been divorced twice (first husband was 4yrs older, second was 6yrs older than me) – he’s never been married. I have never had such a healthy relationship in all my life. Most of the time our age difference isn’t even something I think about — I am sure it’s going to be more difficult in 15-20 years, but even knowing that, I really want to be with this guy. I am 38 and I am dating a 20 year old man. I have known him for many years. I recently went through a divorce from a 15 year marriage and he was there for me more than anyone else. We have been dating for 9 months now and I love him with all my heart. My family and daughter accept him and his family accepts me. We listen to the same music and like the same things. We balance each other in amazing ways, he keeps me youthful and I share my life experience to help him grow as a person. We have taught each other so much and I am having the time of my life. In your opinion could a relationship like this with this age gap last long term? I’m a 33 years and 5 months and my gf is 17 years old. we were dating from last 2 years and we love each other very much. We have so many interests in common. we are living happily right now as a boyfrnd girlfrnd. now my concern is we are planning for a marriage. my question is our age diffrence…is this right gap for marriage? will my age become a problem in the future for her? like sexual relationship or anything else?? can anyone guide me or advice me what i should do because i really want to spend my life with her but i am stoping myself with these questions. advice me plz. Hey everybody, I just searched 20 years age gap relationships and there we go Im here.. I read all the comments and Im really happy that im not the only one in this situation. Im 26 and my dance teacher is 45.. i feel something for him and he sure does for me.. he has already told me he likes me.. but im not sure to let myself to love him.. i cant resist loving him and at the same time im so afraid of future! what will happen 20 years from now…? what am i gonna do if i find myself in a relationship after 20 years and i regret it?? ive always loved to be with someone much older than me, never happened but now that i have im not sure if i should risk and fall in love with him… is there anybody that has been married to someone 20 years older and still be in love??? i dont mean 3 4 years i mean over 15 16 years?

An Exploration of Age-Gap Relationships in the United States.
I am in a relationship with a man 30 years younger than me. He is 29 and I am 60 years. We have been together for a year now but do not live together on a daily basis as we work in different cities. When we are together we get on really well and I feel loved and cared for. We learn lots from each other as we come from different cultures. He had lots of patience and thinks before he speaks and he enhances my life in many ways. I always look forward to our weekly phone calls. I have always preferred younger men, and neither of us really bother about what strangers think, however for both of us, there are family members we don’t feel comfortable telling we are in a relationship. Recently I have been rethinking if we have a future together. His 3 year old son has just come to live with him as the mother is no longer able to care for him. He also has a 10 year old at boarding school. Having a 3 yr old around when we are together, has really changed the dynamics for me. When I talked with him about it, my bf said his son would not always need so much of his time and attention, but I am not sure I want to go through all the parenting and step mom challenges of having such a young child. Another challenge for me is that financially, I earn a lot more than he does, and sometimes I feel burdened by being the main provider. We have discussed how this will change in future, as when I retire he will still be working. I know this is a selfish way to feel, but I am finding it difficult after being financially independent for the past 15 years. Sometimes I feel insecure about the relationship lasting although he always assures me of his love and long term commitment. He is interested in marriage but I am holding back and want to wait until we have been together a few more years. For now I am just enjoying the love we have together. But I am now wondering if 30 year age gap marriages can ever be successful, especially for older woman younger man relationships.
The effect of early marriage short essay
I once dated a guy twice my age. I loved his maturity, financial stability bt ad happy as he made me but sometimes he was more of my father than bf. I cldnt talk back at him, or shout at him when he made me angry. That groomed me into a very strong woman. Bt we broke up hey aint life not fair after I had chosen the relationship over my parents who ddnt want to hear if him. Now having been there i wldnt date a guy more than 10 years older than me. I dnt want to be stuck with a grandpa. I want someone we will grow old together with. Not age first than me. Sorry!
