Title: Relationship age gaps
Post by: Bar Wench on February 11, 2009, 09:49:49 PM
Is the gap between 30 and 45 too large?

Maybe.

15 years is the gap between me and my ex.

I must have got hold of the wrong end of the stick. You see, when you explained that your boss looked like a character in the 118 advert I assumed that you were meditating on the unlikeliness that Wenchy would contemplate.

Title: Re: Relationship age gaps
Post by: Bar Wench on February 12, 2009, 09:04:14 AM
He is indeed.

I suppose it is a bit of a double standard. If it were the other way around I wouldn't have a problem with it all. I suppose my issue is if he is serious about this as a longterm relationship he may miss out on things like fatherhood because of her age.

As a fling-thing? You go girl!  happ096

Not a clue. All I know is her age, that she is welsh and that he met her at Spanish evening classes.

I have some friends with that kind of age gap and it doesn't seem to be a problem, for now anyway. A relationship is a relationship whatever the ages involved, some work/last some don't.

At least with a woman in her forties you know what you are getting unlike someone in their twenties/thirties who is still maturing.

I don't see it as a problem in compatability terms. I suppose really it is just the having children thing that concerns me.

Neither of us had a problem with the age gap, my ex is intelligent and sensible, we just seemed on the same wavelength from when we first met. I would never have been attracted to some flighty airhead anyway.

Her family seemed fine with it as well. I always got on well with the her sister and parents, I was after all nearer the inlaw's age than my wife's.

Although it wasn't a major factor in our breakup it did have some bearing on when we wanted to have children.

She has either had children or now knows she is unlikely to.
Few men of my aquaintance actually want children ~ they accept them as an inevitable consequence.
Anywhoo ~ it really is none of your business.

My great grandmother was widowed. As soon as her children were had left home she knocked 11 years off her age and married a man 25 years her junior. Bet he got a shock on the wedding night  lol:

Well not now that I am happily living in sin no. However, it wasn't something I ever ruled out no. I used to go out with someone ten years older than myself so five years is only a hop skip and a jump from that. My Mum and Dad were 17 years apart.

That is considered more normal though isn't it? It's a societal norm for the woman to be younger than the man but when it is the other way around it is considered rather peculiar.

I don't know to be honest. A few years difference is the norm.

The first female I mentioned is someone I was involved with many moons ago and I was dubious about her marrying him (only happened 3 years ago) as most of their friends are the same age as him and this obviously makes a big difference to thier social life.

Also he is very insecure about the age difference and her leaving him for someone else - has has effectively banned from seeing me, even when Mrs Tel is present.
