Maximum Age Gap

Any advice on maximum age gap between a man and a woman?
Some say age is just a number, but I think there should be certain considerations.
For example, as a man, if I married a younger woman I would be concerned about dying and leaving her to live left alone.



What are your thoughts? Any other considerations?
Thanks.

Your story has nothing to do with any age gap, but only with your personal experience.
It seems as if you wrote that post only to unload your story

Is this dilusion or something?

If you look better NOW, then why do you put an aging fosile photo as your AVATAR??
Do you want pity and sympathy from a younger girl or do you want respect and partnership in a relationship?

No one can gave exact advice about such sensitive subjekt, sometimes in couple who is older dying later, than young, but by statistik woman live longer than man, in my case my husband been 10 years older, I was 19 he 39 when we marryed, at 49 he he dyed, almost 20 years without him, it was not easy to raise kids alone, better not be too older of partner. Best wishes

И в нем тоже. Если женщине 36 предположим мужчине 50 и старше, что общего между ними? Разница в мировоззрении, отношении к жизни, детям, женщине хочется ребенка а мужчине уже бывает не надо, малоподвижный образ жизни, хочется после 50 лет тихой гавани, не всем но многим, а женщине если она активная хочется наслаждаться полной жизнью, а не как бабуля 80 лет сидеть пирожки печь дома, утрирую но такие случаи есть, что люди с большой разницей плохо себя чувствуют, и еще женщина стареет быстрее если большая разница. Для меня нормальная разница 5-10 лет.

Если вы хотите,чтобы вас любили,то женитесь на женщине старше вас)))
Если вы хотите "яркую"жизнь,то женитесь на молоденькой)))

Вы выгладите как минимум на 55 лет , тот факт что вы пишете что у вас отношения с тем кто младше на 9 лет и при этом вы на сайте знакомств говорит о многом.

18-20 year old girls who go visit 48 year old expect to get paid, they won’t pay for themselves. Lets be real.

Good question! I am from New Zealand and now live in Australia. Back in my New Zealand days, I was proposed to by 21 year old woman when I was 38. 17 years difference. She was a very famous hit singer and I was her manager. I had tried to avoid her interest for some time, because of the age difference. She convinced me to accept her. We were married for eight years and had two children together. People envied the way that we loved each other. So there was no trouble at all with the age difference. However, people go through life changes as a normal aspect of life. My ex faced challenges that she could only overcome if she faced these challenges herself. Ironically, the main problem was that I was too reliable, too capable and too stable in the sense that I could solve any problem. Women become too reliant on their men and then dont learn how to resolve problems on their own. If a man is strong and dependable, then the woman doesn't have to ever face her own problems. So I learned that rather than this being an issue of age gap, it is an issue of self-reliance and resilience. People may develop their emotional maturity early or never develop emotional self regulation at all. Some people can be 60 and still completely stupid emotionally. Perhaps then we should learn to measure the emotional intelligence age of a person, rather than their body. Because this is the true age of a person, their capacity for behaving like an adult. Some people never grow up. Others grow up very early. I am 51 now and because I look younger and because of my approach to life, I often have interest from women between 25 to 35, much younger women. I have a personal rule never to take advantage of a woman, but to do the right thing for her. Even if a younger woman likes me, I may say no to her. Because the DADDY ISSUES she may have around seeking the stability of father, is not always healthy to resolve through being with a strong man. But we should not be quick to judge. 100% of people look for traits of their parents in their life partner! They do this subconsciously. So to a degree, I think the woman who knows what she wants and what makes her happy, she deserves to be with the man that she chooses. An older man has much to offer a younger woman. Whether you are 44 or 54 doesnt matter Ray, so long as you are a virtuous man who can genuinely care for the woman who puts her trust in you, then you deserve the woman who loves, no matter what her age is. But I would not suggest being with a woman younger than 25 more generally, because by then a woman knows who she is and what she wants. Women reach their peak at 40 and are the most beautiful in their forties. And if a woman has looked after herself, some of the most beautiful women I have seen are in their fifties. Those women know how to love. As to dying and leaving her behind, get life insurance and build a legacy you can leave her. Better still, teach her to be independent and self sufficient. Bring her into your business and teach her to run you empire. Women make great leaders. Like the woman in Proverbs 31.
