Haha, yeah I usually draw the line if a guy is old enough to be my father.Most of the guys that do show interest in me are either 10 plus years older or 8 years younger. Granted most people say I look younger (maybe 5 years) so maybe that explains the younger ones but what does that say about the older ones. I’m always open about my age…don’t care except that I would like to find someone before I expire…
Age really isn’t so much the issue as compatibility of morals, faith and communication…note that doesn’t mean I’m looking for a dad or grandpa either.
Ah! Yes that makes sense. Actually, that’s a dynamic my sister and her husband have to deal with. He was the youngest of 3, and she is the oldest of 3. Plus he’s 5 years older than her. So… he has all these interests/tastes/memories that she’s clueless about! It’s kind of funny actually.
My dh is a little over 10 yrs older than me, and it’s been working great for nearly 18 years.Most of the guys that do show interest in me are either 10 plus years older or 8 years younger.

Transformers? Spider Man? I used to love those as a kid!!!
There are pics of me and my sisters holding up our transformer toys in front of the Christmas tree. And the new Spider Man movies are some of my faves. Hmmm. I’m 27… maybe I caught the tale end of that trend? Well, I pray you find the perfect match. But even if she doesn’t love transformers or Spider Man … if it helps, my sister and her husband are very happy and have a lot of laughs over their differences. God can work with differences. (I hope!)That’s awesome!..hey wasn’t St. Therese’s father about a decade older than her mother? And they’re up for beautification…My dh is a little over 10 yrs older than me, and it’s been working great for nearly 18 years.
now this gives me hope. Thank youTransformers? Spider Man? I used to love those as a kid!!!
Well if you want to get technical a lot of the 50s plus guys that show interest just want a nurse or baby machine. A guy in his 50s who suddenly says “hey wait…now I want a family” that’s scary, sad and a little too late in life.That’s awesome!..hey wasn’t St. Therese’s father about a decade older than her mother? And they’re up for beautification…
Ah-ha, Transformers! More than meets the eye!!
This is ridiculous. No one I know who is married and a parent would ever change places with me for the world.
no one to lean on
What’s a date
Of all the happily married people I know none of them would trade what they have with their partners for the single life again. Quite a few of them have also said they didn’t know what they were missing until they were married – hardly sounds like people who aren’t enjoying their lives.
True.
True, but that being just because it’s irrelevant is not that much consolation.
Hardly a consolation. It always takes two to tango and you don’t date for fun anyway. If you’re married, you’ve got the final thing.
That can be arranged.
Better pick someone you can stand the thought of sharing a bathroom with. Then you get the kind of companionship one’s sometimes longing for. And you’re set.
Can be arranged as well.
Sorta, but it gets boring. And you start feeling remourse after a while.
True. But you can always find something to do. Then it becomes a responsibility in some cases.
True, but if you try, marriage can be exciting too. My father says no matter you’ve been married so many years, you still ought to treat her like the girl you’re wooing. Given corresponding response, marriage can be quite a happy affair. Pick well, try even better, and the company stays forever.
