"Due to the current financial crisis, to save money - the light at the end of the tunnel has been turned off indefinitely"! -- Anonymous "One of the greatest delusions in the world is the hope that the evils in this world are to be cured by legislation" -- Thomas Bracket Reed (American Politician, 1839-1902) "You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.. You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's initiative and independence.

Seriously though, I've been married forever and no, other than running with werewolves, I've not been attracted to anyone else in a long time.

Reps: 2,463,965,628,428,525 (power: 2,463,965,628,435) | | | Well, I was all ready and set to answer this question - but then someone threw the monkey wrench into it and said "Well, I meant would you want a relationship with them"
...and that changes the question (IMHO).
I've seen plenty of women that are quite a bit younger than me that I think are attractive. I'm pushing 40 - and I can think of quite a few women I've seen that are probably in their early to mid 20's that I think are very attractive on the "looks" side.
That's how I was going to answer it at first - but would I want a RELATIONSHIP with them (if I were single)? Probably not....and in some cases definitely not.
Heck - my wife is 6 years younger than me...and even in those 6 years of difference I can notice certain areas where our common ground isn't there. Like - I'll be talking about music - or the early days of MTV - and jokingly ask "Remember when..." - and ya know - no. She doesn't "remember when". She doesn't remember when Thriller came out. She's barely old enough to remember Reagan in office. Carter left office when she was 4. I was graduating HS when she was in 6th grade. There are lots of areas where I have nostalgic things about life that she didn't experience.
...and that's only 6 years.
Like let's say I was dating a 20 year old (to make it pretty extreme) - what the heck would I really have in common with her? There would be HUGE gaps in common experience - and those are things that I really value in any relationship. Most likely I'd end up finding myself falling into more of a paternal type role - rather than a spousal.

I got the impression she might have been interested in me. I really liked her personality, so I guess I probably would have been willing to have a relationship with her if I didn't actually stop to think about things. The age gap was just too big though. It wouldn't have lasted long, and I'd probably have felt like a lecherous old man. |

"When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown
The dream is gone
And I have become
Comfortably numb." |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | | | |
