Jet96 Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Can a relationship like this work ? Do any of you konow some like this ? What are the pros and cons ?
mongo Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 its hard to imagine why any dude 18-20 in his right mind would want to do that. or why a woman of that age would do that. 1
d0nnivain Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 There is a TV show about these kinds of relationships. It is possible but not probable. Anytime there is a whole generation (20+ years) between the people there is less in common, there are raised eyebrows because it's outside the societal norm & it gets harder as the people age. 1
Lois_Griffin Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Can a man 18-20 date and marry a woman 35-45 ? Can a relationship like this work ? Do any of you konow some like this ? What are the pros and cons ? LOL...I would suppose it could, if the boy had mommy issues (and clearly, he must). 1
JJCaliGirl Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 I am on the lower edge of this age range, and I could never date or marry someone who was 15-20 years younger than me. Why? There are things in my life that I've been through that shaped who I am and pushed me to mature faster than my peers. I never identified with 18 year olds when I was 18, and I couldn't identify with an 18-25 year old at my current age. I think for it to work, both individuals have to be on the same emotional and maturity level. BUT, I am flattered when a 22 year old thinks I'm beautiful, but that's about it. I couldn't even flirt with the idea of dating someone that young!
Diana Bol Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 I don't know any sane man that would marry before 30 let alone at 18-20 with a 35-45 year old.
loveweary11 Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 One of my employees is 25. He has a girlfriend that's 46. They are truly happy and seem to be having a lot of fun together. Had a couple drinks with them today. It was fascinating because she's essentially the female version of me. Had long, interesting LoveShackesque talks.
Popsicle Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 Can a relationship like this work ? Do any of you konow some like this ? What are the pros and cons ? What? Are you the young man in question? I can not for the life of me understand why a young man would want to marry a woman twice his age.
Popsicle Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 One of my employees is 25. He has a girlfriend that's 46. They are truly happy and seem to be having a lot of fun together. Having fun with a girlfriend is different. Plenty of "cougar hunters" want that. He said marry.
Ninjainpajamas Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 A lot of guys that age range don't want a serious long term relationship with women of that age, why would you want to date a woman at that age 18-20? You need to get older and more experienced first, don't fall for the cougar love...if you want to date one when you're older, that's fine but I wouldn't suggest anything serious until you're of that age range.
loveweary11 Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 Having fun with a girlfriend is different. Plenty of "cougar hunters" want that. He said marry. Yes, he did. If these two I know got married, it wouldn't surprise me.
bluegreen Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 Anyone can do anything they wish but will doing this will be wrong or right for them is another answer altogether.
