MGSkyFlyer 0 #26 October 24, 2002 I was sort of seeing this guy who was twice my age. I actually never asked him his age, I always thought he was only 10 years older than I was. Age only becomes an issue if you make it an issue. One of my very best friends said that people make things complicated, and how true she is....

Galen 0 #28 October 24, 2002 you're right there aren't too many jobs. I'm sort of stuck in my current job unless I want to move or commute to St. Pete of Tampa. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 37 #29 October 24, 2002 I've often said I won't date anyone who is in his 20's. That's just because I would feel too weird being so much older than him. And, it's not because I look or act my age, I guess I just have to draw the line somewhere. My ex was 4 years older than me, and I suppose I would date someone a little older than that. That said, I look at factors way more important than age when I decide to date someone.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

moodyskydiver 0 #31 October 24, 2002 As a few other people have said, age is relative. I really liked a friend of mine awhile back and he was in his mid 30s whereas I'm 20. I didnt have a problem with it, but I think he did. I usually date guys that are a few years older than I am. "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

freeflir29 0 #32 October 24, 2002 I occasionally "Go out" with a chick that is 21. When I first met her she was 19 and I was 29. Of course...we have a "certain kind" of relationship. I don't know if I could be around her a lot. The exposure right now is usually limited to one night every couple weeks or so. I'm not good at making time for people but it seems she can deal with that. *shrug* Works for me..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Galen 0 #33 October 24, 2002 JRAF: I was at a club with a friend once. There was this guy that reeked of money sititng at a table with this really hot girl. He kept talking to her, non stop, but her chair was sort of turned so part of her back was to him. She was obviously not paying attention to a word he said. Occasionally she would look at him and nod. Her eyes were wandering all over the room. This guy wasn't too old. Just rich and boring.

Given the reaction to the "saving a relationship" thread and the article it pointed to: http://www.recoilmag.com/news/area_husband_pretends_0702.html I find this particular reply to be very funny....

happythoughts 0 #36 October 24, 2002 Quote Yeah....but I bet she happily blew and swallowed later.... Such cynicism. Women are not shallow enough to just go out with aman for his money. I am sure that he had other fine qualities. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zennie 0 #39 October 24, 2002 Age isn't really a factor with me. If I met my "soul-mate" and she was x-number of years older or younger than me it really wouldn't be an issue. You can't put a number on those sorts of things. And like others have said, I really don't act my age so whoever I hooked up with would have to be of like mind. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stacy 0 #49 October 24, 2002 The only people I've ever dated for a mentionable amount of time have been at least 5 years older than me. I've always had most of my friends older than myself, it just happened that way. I don't think I could ever be involved with someone over 10 years older, that just seems weird. Right now i tend to go towards the 25-30 crowd. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
