Thread Name: BS: Relationship with an older woman
Subject: RE: BS: Relationship with an older woman
I have always liked younger men. Men my age (36ish)are either too set in their ways, on the rebound, commitment-phobic, already married, or such losers they have not ever been in an actual mature relationship...not to generalize but that has been my experience so far; in other woids, all the good ones are taken!

When I was 30, I had a great romance with a guy who was 21. He was a Brad Pitt look-alike back when Brad had his long hair and beard...gorgeous, simply gorgeous. I was surprised he wanted to date me actually, at first. He had been with a few "older women" in high school so I imagine this experience helped...we were very well suited to each other physically and emotionally but he felt intellectually inferior at times and this troubled him. But we had a great time...until he dumped me for a glassblower...she lasted a few weeks, then he took up with some twink even younger than him; they are still together, I think...she's a bitch and my friends always wonder why he's with her...as do I. But as long as he's happy (though I am not sure he is...)

Also, when I was in college, I had a fling with a 15 year old (I was 21); looking back I realize I could have been arrested for this (!) but it never occurred to me at the time...He was originally from Puerto Rico and moved to the Northeast because his parents were divorcing. Not a typical teen by any means, very together...much more so than my college-age beaus...but my girlfriends all teased me about robbing the cradle, regardless...

i wish any and all of you kuck in love; age does not matter unless you let it... peg
