    You'll do well if it's not a 43 year old male truck driver.


    It'd not be for me, but ye're both adults. It's likely both of ye could have some fun.

    According to the French Rule she can date men half her age plus 7 - so around 28/29

    I'm a 40 something year old woman so I'm going to offer some advice.

    It totally depends what ye both want. Meet up and see how it goes. Yes it's a big age gap. Yes I couldn't imagine dating a 25 year old - but not all 25 year olds are the same. Not all 43 year olds are the same either.

    No harm in trying tbh.

    Could be worse than a 43 year old male trucker

    He'd better hope that when milfforyounglad42 turns up it's not his ma

    I would not be rushing into this , two different stages of life, everything will start off hunky dory then once the honey moon period has gone this is when things can get shaky. speaking from experience not as big of age gap but had a similar situation.

    They say true love conquers all so give it a bash OP. As a bonus there is usually a lot less drama and the like with the more mature lady.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,584 ✭✭✭monkeysnapper


    When I first read this I thought 43 year old.....God that's old ' then I remembered I'm 42 .

    Excuse me while I go sit in a dark room and cry .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,620 ✭✭✭JeffKenna


    I'd be concerned that you might catch the menopause from her.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,122 ✭✭✭saintsaltynuts


    I don't see anything wrong with that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,423 ✭✭✭✭Outlaw Pete


    Why would there be a problem?

    Susan Sarandon seems to like younger men. Tim Robbins was 12 years younger than her when she was with him and she was banging Malcom Bricklin's son for seven or eight years after that and he was over 30 years younger.

    That Jesus guy Madonna was with was over 30 years younger than her. Hugh Jackman's wife is 13 years older.

    Have at it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,930 ✭✭✭✭TerrorFirmer


    The obvious problem is the question of what stage you're both at, what you want in the next few years, and naturally kids is going to be a huge one. She could already have kids and not want more, or not have any and not want them, or else want them but at that age, it becomes a lot more urgent then 'sure, we'll see what the future brings'.

    Kids are pretty much the only reason I wouldn't be wild about a relationship with someone that age and I'd say it's the same for most people rather than the whole 'age is just a number' aspect to it.

    This is just my opinion, but from what I've seen over the years, relationships with significant age gaps tend not to last. I've known people who've been in big age gap relationships where the younger person has strayed and ended up with a person their on age. If a 40 year old bloke gets involved with a 20 year old woman, he's in the prime of his life and obviously very attractive to her. But fast forward 20 years, now he's 60 and perhaps at bit feeble, while she's still young woman. I don't believe in the ''age is just a number'' thing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,188 ✭✭✭Malayalam


    Depends on her attitude more than yours really, as you are so young. Older ladies I know who have dated very young guys seem to sensibly know that it is not likely to be a long-term thing, as the younger guy is being limited by her age regarding reproduction, at the very least. And so they enjoy the affair for what it is - a temporary joy. In those cases things seem to go along quite nicely for both.

    A lady or two I know has grasped onto her younger beau as the years marched on and she grew older and he stayed relatively young, and that is not a pretty sight. It can become a manipulative mess and power struggle - yuck. Let everyone call a halt before those days arrive.


    So meet up and see if she is sane?

    25 is quite young, I think, unless you are unusually mature, but hey, maybe you are. :)

    I had a very brief fling with a co-worker a couple of years ago. I was 28 and she was 47. She was married with three kids and she made it blatantly obvious that she was up for something with someone, she mentioned it on a constant basis. She was unhappy in her marriage and there was very little sex in their marriage.

    I had a bad break up with my girlfriend of a number of years and I turned to my coworker for advice. I always thought she was good looking, which she was, and obviously any attraction I had towards her was just fantasy based as I never once thought anything would happen between us. One night both of us were on the late shift and we took a break together in the middle of the night. I was having a rough night and so was she. We were alone in the canteen at 3 am and one thing led to another. We had unbelievable sex on the couch in the canteen and we did so most nights we were working together for perhaps a month or so.

    We had lots in common, both found each other attractive and had amazing sex. There was an emotional connection too which made it much better too. We both made a conscious decision to quit before we got too used to what we were doing. It was purely down to the age gap. If she was a few years younger I’d say we’d still be together. She has since split from her husband and is alone now which is a real shame. She’s a wonderful woman and is still very sexy even at 50+. I left the company probably 5 months after we stopped messing around and I moved to Cork. Not long after I did I met my future wife and things have worked out brilliantly for us and I have an awful lot to thank my former coworker for.

    Listening to her being so sad at the way her marriage had ended up I actually got some tips on what not to do in a marriage and it has worked out well. I sometimes meet that woman when I go home and there’s no weirdness between us, a big plus factor when you are involved with a mature woman, and we often still chat away. She was very close to getting an invite to my wedding too.

    My advice to OP is go for it, the worst that can happen is you have a bit of fun with an older woman. The best that can happen is that you have a bit of fun with an older woman but you learn an awful lot about what makes women tick and what makes them happy into their 40s and beyond. Your situation is very different to mine I know but I would say go for it.

    Funny how if the genders reversed the 47 year old would be attacked as a dirty old man taking advantage of a harmless young wan. And the "bad marriage with no sex" thing wouldn't be believed. If she was such a wonderful woman she would have left her husband before riding someone else.

    If you only fancy 40 year old bear in mind she will be 50 soon. I’d go for a girl my own age. Same sort of hormones sloshing about. In ten years you’ll be in your prime and she will be having hot flushes and panic attacks at concerts and bingo.

    Agreed with you if its was with older man alright,but the bad marriage and no sex id say hundreds of women in same boat, its the security with the husband they stay for and not confident enough to walk out of a marriage.

    +1 The potential financial hit too and concerns about any kids they may have. And more like thousands I'd say and thousands of men in a similar boat.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.
