Is a 45 year old guy too old for a 34 year old woman?


the answer is no. but is you switch the genders.

reply

i've had girlfriends that were older than me

reply

how much older?

reply

12 years was the most

also 7 years and 2 years

reply

this wasn't a thing when i was young

reply

fair enough

reply

Hey Darth.

reply

I dunno but I was always wondering where Joe Dimaggio went until I saw him on TV selling Mr. Coffee.

reply

Well if you switch genders and you are either Cher or Madonna, that age gap is WAY too small

reply

doesn't happen in real life that much

reply

I don’t think Cher or Madonna are fictional characters 😁 but I take your point, it is different for celebs.

My brother’s married to an older woman, but it’s just a 5 year gap.

reply

i meant non celebrity life.

reply

👍

reply

No in either direction.

I dated women in their mid-to-late 30s when I was in my 20s.

reply

my niece is 34 and her fiance is 45. and she's pregnant. so it better work

reply

I think that would be true regardless of anyone's age though, wouldn't it?

EDIT: Meaning, wanting the relationship to work, which is what I thought you meant. Not sure, though.

reply

pregnancy adds a whole new dimension. she's been through a few boyfriends her own age. i find it find strange she has fallen for this older guy. my brother says he a good guy and he's got the seal of approval

reply

Why would it be an issue with the genders switched?

reply

the kids thing

reply

I'm not sure I understand?

You mean if the guy wants to have kids?

reply

yes.

reply

Well, I'm going to assume that if the man wanted kids he wouldn't be with a woman who a. already has them, or b. would have a high risk pregnancy.

I hate to be this type of person, but comments like this are like when doctors refuse to give tubal ligations without a husband's consent or won't do until a woman is much older because she might change he mind. I would hope that people discuss their wants before they get into serious relationships.

reply

husband's consent in 2024? where do you live ethiopia??

reply

Nope. I live in Canada. You know this.

Because it's pretty much permanent it's almost impossible to get unless you've already had kids. There are doctors who will do it, but it's pretty rare. I haven't heard much about husband consent here, but check stories from the US. Georgia, North Carolina, and Virginia all require written consent of the patient's spouse.

reply

this doesn't happen in canada

reply

Spousal consent no, but it is still really difficult to get an elective tubal ligation in Canada without having more than one child. It's a fight even when you've just had one. In Alberta we have Catholic run public hospitals that will only do one if it's medically required after a c-section.

I WAS 23 WHEN I HOOKED UP WITH THE DEVIL...SHE WAS 40.

reply

I'm confused. So you're saying you hooked up with your 40-year-old self when you were 23? How is that possible?

This is the best Kowalski quote ever!

I wish you the best of luck in acquiring said HYCTR... 😀

reply

Switch to which genders? There are more than two, and to assume the reader is to presume you only mean two is quite problematic. I must say.

reply

you busted me

reply

that's not possible. I won't accept it.

reply

It's fine either way. The cougar thing.

reply

Despite a push to accept so many sexual preferences, some seem to feel they have a right to shame Older Man x Younger Female relationships, assuming the woman is being led astray and can't make her own decisons.

Laura Dern made a big deal about the age gap between herself and Sam Neil in Jurrasic Park, yet I always thought they were within average age gap limits. Laura always looked much older to me. Point is no one cared until it became a thing and Dern decided decades later to complain about it.

reply

I agree with this. I've always chosen to be with older men. I've connected with them on much better level than guys my own age. I'm sure now people would be screaming that half my boyfriends from when I was in my late teens were pedophiles, but I chose them. My parter now is only 9 years older than me, but we've been together almost 20 years now so...

reply

It used to be a very common thing for women and older teen girls to be with older men.

It makes sense in a lot of ways. The older man is calmer, more established, experienced etc I have dated older women and found the same. It is a different dynamic to dating someone your own age.

For a man dating a younger woman it is fun and romantic usually.
