So Vee can I ask.....how does your family feel about that? Not that it should matter if you love your husband. I'm just curious to know if you had a hard time with them approving?

I wouldnt date someone 25-30 years older than me. i find it hard to date anyone 7-10 years old than me. I prefer them to be my age or 5 years older no older.

25-30 years olderf or me is way too much. I'll stick with no more than 5- 12 years older.

Hi JamCan, no probs..

Well my Momz was NOT thrilled at all and has expressed her strong feelings more then once, to her having her daughter dating someone who is a big Man for her must not have sit well with her at all..to be honest it took me almost 2 years of him making advances for me even to accept what he was getting at again due to the difference in age and all.

One of my Cousins called him Grandpa Simpson which was so emba****ing and after the laughs from her and some others I just requested to keep them jokes away from my range of hearing.

He has no kids*biologically speaking* and would like to have one or two and I know that I want more children but at times I feel guilty given his age and all..maybe that is just from the fact that in my family we have mostly had our children at a fairly young age.. my oldest will be turning 10 soon and then the other will be 8 and the youngest just turned 6 and I am 27..lol

Thanks for asking, I am usually unfront and I really like the convos here

i dont think i could date someone that much older than me or that much younger than me. im sure that was hard dealing with your family...im going through a similar situation..but for different reasons im getting objection. my parents are similar to you and your man. and they have been married for over 25years..so i guess you can really say love doesnt know any boundries

Really RS? That is really encouraging..truly! Because although I really love him I worry at times about the 10 or so years later down the road ..I guess I should appreciate the here and now and see how many days-years we will be blessed with and give thanks.

Yes, you already married the man.. Can't turn back the hands of time. Him uno love each other an tings seem to be going well...den I think no one else have visa to speak out. You grown, if you find love in different stages, ages, creed and color...milk it for what its worth. Enjoy it, we only live once.

It's better to be loved once and lost than never to be loved at all. BLessings to uno.

if hes in good good shape and he dont look his age. i would. like the saying go. "age is mind over matter, if you dont mind it dont matter" tHATS HOW I FEEL

When I was 22yrs old I dated a man that was my mother's age and it took me a long time to accept his dinner dates with me always turning him down....So one day I decided to accept and went out on a date with him.....and as time went on I started going out with him regularly as I began to enjoy his company.

He was a well dressed man in suits-a graduate of a University having played football-- He also had a very good paying job but he had another job that thew me for a loop and I will tell you about that later--anyway he was very handsome for his age---tall dark and deliciously brown--- and he also took good care of his body. As time progressed I found myself falling inlove with this man--he was kind and gentle and treated me like a Queen and when it came down to sex--he didn't indulge in viagra--he was naturally the bomb fire in bed!

Sadly as of today I try not to think or talk about him because I miss him and loved him so much and he was deeply inlove with me----you see one day he was outside his home washing his car getting ready to come and see me--- he was killed--long story and don't want to get into it right now--too painful for me--Anyway--this man I was dating was also a Minister with his own church--yes, this was his other job----So those of you who never been in a relationship with big age gap would never understand that kind of love--

I didn't base my love on how old he was or what he could do or not do for me in the bed --it was so much more then that--It was a true love--the kind of love when two spirits meet and bcome one and when he passed away he took a part of me with him---So I ask you---"Is it our ages or our hearts" and now I am married to a Jamaican man and he is much younger then I and I can understand his young tender heart loving me the way that he does because I once walked in my husband shoes.....and this coming March it will be our 4th year anniversary and we love each other deeply. God is so good!

Peace and Blessings Star

You are a very smart and intelligent young lady--you are going to go a long way in life--You have an open mind--I like what you said here--Thank you! Blessed....

I am bringing this upfront so Princessblack can read it because this is when the tables were turned and I was the younger one and he was the older man in my life....so you see, I have experiened both worlds and it's not what who thinks is right or wrong or wrong because opinions of other's don't matter but what does matter is what I want to do with my life.....

Thanks Star for bringing this back up ...looking back and now realizing how my Man is brucking his neck to make things better makes my heart smile
