TheMENemy Posted November 4, 2010 Posted November 4, 2010 Congratulations, but aren't those 2 a.m. feedings somewhat of a hassle?
GorillaTheater Posted November 4, 2010 Posted November 4, 2010 Just thought I'd let you guys know... We ended up hanging out almost every day for the past couple of weeks and two days ago we finally confessed the mutual attraction and got together. We're a couple now. Couldn't be happier Thanks everyone who encouraged me to do it The age difference seems so meaningless now. Arabella Great news! You cradle-robber, you.
Author Arabella Posted November 4, 2010 Author Posted November 4, 2010 Congratulations, but aren't those 2 a.m. feedings somewhat of a hassle? Nah, I can handle them Joking aside... I had an emergency situation in my life recently and he came through for me in a BIG way. Without going into irrelevant details, he did what older, supposedly more "mature" men I have been with would never have done. I was very impressed and finally realized that, at least with this guy, his age is just a number. Arabella
musemaj11 Posted November 4, 2010 Posted November 4, 2010 Women r so obsessed with age. If a man likes a woman it doesn't matter if she's 18 or 55.
BrianK Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 (edited) I'll play devils advocate and say give it a few dates and his immense immaturity is going to start becoming more and more evident. Allow that, and only that to be the judge. :2cents: He may be fun now, but there are going to be times when you need him for other "mature" things that he wont be able to deliver on and it'll make you squirm. Hence you have a bad day, lose a family member etc..him performing the worm so you laugh isn't exactly going to cut it. Know what I mean? Edited November 5, 2010 by BrianK
musemaj11 Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 Six years are nothing. Seriously. People are making a fuss out of nothing.
mogul Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 Thanks for starting this thread. I'm probably in the same position as the guy you're talking about. I feel that I am too mature, or on another level compared to the girls in my age group 18-22 and mostly attracted to 23-25 yr olds. I've come to learn that age really is just a number, though at times I do feel as if its different worlds. When a woman 23+ gets to know me, she learns that I am mentally more mature and financially secure than the guys shes used to dating due to age. If only women didn't judge a guy by age. I wouldn't mind dating a girl in my age group, ideally, that would be the case. Its just so hard to meet an independent (for the most part), beautiful/ confident girl who has had to deal with her fair share of adversity to mature as a person. Question: When I meet women, we end up playing guessing games and they always assume im in the 23-25 range and it gets awkward. I don't want to lie, but I also don't want to flat out tell them my real age with out them getting to know me and judge me by that instead of a number.

Oh, I fully realize he's not as mature in other aspects as guys closer to my age, but so far... he's proven to be far more dependable, supportive & mature than anyone his age I've met before, and more so than the past couple people I've been involved with (which is sad because they were older). That's why I decided to give him a shot. Time will tell Arabella
