Question for the ladies

Would you consider marrying an older guy....say 20 years older if you would end up financially secure? This might be a problem if the guy was 70. What are your thoughts?

I go for personality over 'security'

If he was also handsome, extremely intelligent, sweet and caring, with an amazing personality, a great sense of humour, without habits I find upsetting and looking a little younger than his actual age I *might* consider marrying him in spite of the age difference.

I would... well actually I did. I dates someone 17 years my senior a few years ago. And hey, a 50 year old woman dating a 70 year old guy doesn't look so bad, right? Try -- 12 and 32.

Does that offer of financial stability include years of good conversation? If yes, I am in.

If he's a wonderful guy, sure, but it would be for the wonderfulness, not for the financial security.

if it's just for the financial security...what's the word we're looking for?

I think everyone's made it quite clear that it wouldn't be just for that.

I think no. I am 30 and cannot imagine having sex with 50 years old man. To marry in general because of financial security...maybe... never say never... But at least I can say that I was suggested almost 10 years before to marry a person who had lots of money and I prefered to marry someone who had no cent and I lived poorest life one can imagine. Probably I was stupid, young but I am not sorry. I am proud of what I accomplished by myself now.

20 years is too much for me !

10 years is too much for me !

Even 5, now that I think of it.

But then love knows no age difference... so anyway, a rational answer to this rational question is... no way!

Two friends of mine in their 40s are with men in their 60s. Both of the relationships seem to work--and I know that one of the women, in particular, has never been happier.

Someone 20 years older would be around 65 in my case.

If he's got a great personality and can keep up with me (and I'm talking both in and out of bed!) I guess I would consider it.

Meanwhile I'd have to find a way to subtly let down all the guys that are 20 years younger that have been chasing me around!

For financial security, I'd marry a 90 year old guy!
