He has three kids, and is married. Which really bothers me. I shouldn't like him, my friends all find it creepy. How I see it, is age doesn't matter. In a relationship and if you really love him, age shouldn't make a difference, it's based entirely on maturity. If all he is looking for is sex, obviously you should put your guard up and hold back. However, if he is intellectually attracted to you, not just sexually, then go for it. Good luck!

Your relationship is entirely your own. Age is only a number and if your really falling for this guy like you say you are how can a silly little number put a price on that? After all, we're in the 21st century, many couples share a wide age gaps these days, you hear all the time of couples varying from a few months to over 20 years appart. If this guy is really what you have been looking for than nothing should hold you back, just follow what you believe and if he feels the same way that you feel about him, I'm pretty sure he'll come around :)

It is not our fault for who we love or when we are born. Iwas in a relationship with a man who is 13 yrs older than I{me 20 him 33} we worked together. As long as you are confident in who you are and he is too who gives a rats tail.

Age is just a number, its not so important so long as he's not ur fathers age group... If this guy loves u and treats u well.. Then u gatto follow ur heart. I personally like older men... They care for u much better and understand with u... So go gal.... This isn't really an issue!

I personally don't like it when the person I am dating is too old. BUT a guy once told me this, age is just a number.
It really depends how you think. If you think it is okay then its fine.
Your relationship is your own. Others shouldn't be judging your relationship, as long as you both are happy with it. That's enough. :)
