Yes, to a degree, but the percentage is lower if the man is over 50 plus. As people age they can become more sedate, slower in motion, prefer staying home more than partying like they did in their younger day. It also depends on the woman. If both are the same in personality then it should work. Sometimes it's better to take a risk to see if the relationship works out than to walk away, but always be aware that some women think older men have a stash of money somewhere. That's not saying there aren't a lot of great younger ladies out there for older men.
Anything is possible, but the percentage is extremely low. 40 years is a big gap. While you want to go to a party or rip it up dancing or go out with friends or socialize a lot he is probably going to want to sit home and relax and perhaps enjoy sports on TV or have a hobby he likes and believe me if it's Golf or fishing he'll want to include you. LOL One has to ask themselves why they are attracted to someone that is so much older and be honest about it. Is he a father figure? Is he your comfort zone because he's wise and kind? Do you find you are more relaxed that he is more financially secure (I am not accusing you of being a gold digger.) If you are honest with yourself you'll know if it's true love and if you have the staying power to maintain this relationship or, you are one of above I mentioned and you should be honest with this man and perhaps keep him as a friend.
I think, it's not healthy to date a younger person. Especially when it's above five years. I'm sorry... But, if you're really happy with the person and he feels the same way, that will last forever...! So, GO!
Age difference in relationships can vary and isn't uncommon, as long as both individuals are mature, on the same page in terms of goals and values, and communicate effectively. It's important for both parties to respect each other's boundaries and be understanding of any societal expectations or challenges that may arise due to the age gap. Ultimately, what matters most is the strength of the connection, mutual respect, and compatibility between the two people involved.
Alice in human years is younger, but in vampire years Alice is older.
Boys mature 3-5 years slower than women, that's why girls should marry older men, not younger.
Younger people can make very desirable mates.
2 years older, his younger brother is also one year younger than him and his sister three years younger.
An older man younger women relationship DEFINITELY CAN work out! I personally know an older man who has been married to a younger woman for 29 years! Just went to their 29th Anniversary party. There's 21 years age difference between them. Just because someone has been on this earth for a few years longer than someone else, doesn't mean they can't love each other! But that's the secret- they really truly, deep down inside love each other with their whole hearts and souls. You can just feel it and see the love when you're with them! I don't know if this is an exception to the rule, but yes, I know for a fact that an older man younger women relationship CAN really work out! However, it is very rare. Most relationships with a significant age difference, particularly when the couple is on the younger side, do not work.
Because thry have nothing better to do. I think it is just plain wrong though.
My BF and I both think so! He is almost 10 years older than I .We met via- A g e Matching. C~oM - a nice place for younger women and oldermen, or older women and younger men, to interact with each other
older
Walt Disney had three older brothers and one younger sisters:Herbert (13 years older)Raymond (11 years older)Roy (8 years older)Ruth (2 years younger)
They like to not only feel but, look younger. By walking around with a noticeably younger female, these older men get looks from other men that are thinking "Wow, he must be cool!" So, it's nothing but an ego-boost and an adrenaline rush to them.
