What would you think of a 37 year old man dating a 22 year old woman?

I am 32, husband is 31.\n\nI don't think the age difference is that drastic, having dated a 38 yr old at 19. \n\nI think a lot of older guys like younger women.  Why??? (boy am I going to catch flack for this, ready....?)\n\nBECAUSE THEY'RE NICE.  Women your age (37) have been married & divorced, probably a couple of times by now.  They are overall jaded and in survival mode.  They have kids, probably (which is not that big of a deal but has a lot to do with their priorities in finding another partner, which is as it should be.)  I am not saying all women are like this, but I bet more than a few are, and I bet you dated them too, right?\n\nAt 22, most women are still open to being hurt, and just don't have as much baggage.  I married first at that age & had my daughter- was divorced a couple of years later and was a little bitter & wary.  2 wacko heartbreaking guys later, and I just decided to let go & see.  Enter fabulous now husband.  It's all OK. \n\nI think if you love her, she loves you, and you treat each other with respect and want the same things...\n\nGO FOR IT HONEY!  \n\nAge isn't much when it comes to love.

It doesn't mater if he is 19 or 90 if she is attractive the though will cross his mind.  It's a question of character whether or not he will act on his feelings.

A 2-year difference is no big deal....look at it down the road...your 36 and he is 34...not a big deal at all.  If your attracted to him, go for it and see how it works out...guys that are 18 are usually flattered when an older woman (yeah...I know 20 is not old) expresses an interest in them. .

Yes. There is too much age difference. I wouldn't do it

There's nothing wrong with it, especially if your feelings are genuine, but keep in mind that you could get hurt pretty bad given you start up a relationship. He could use you, or date you for a while but then flat out tell you that he's uncomfortable. Six years is not that big of a difference, but even age differences like that could result in some professional frowning-down on his part (like if he has a big corporate job and they find out he's seeing someone younger). But like I said, six years isn't that MUCh of a difference to be worried about. I knew someone who was about 19 or 20 and she dated a 36 year old guy, but they broke up because of the age difference.\n\nI just read your edit...I have to tell you that twenty is a whole different world from fourteen. So like I said, be careful!

I think that so long as it doesn't bother either of you - go for it. When I was 18 I dated a guy who was 40 - there's nothing wrong with it so long as you have things in common and you don't let the age different impact the relationship.

It depends what kind of guy he is, really. I wouldn't worry so much about it. My cousin, she is 26, and her boyfriend is 36, and he is one of the nicest people i've ever met.

My parents were 18 years apart, Id have to say, this is fine, or I wouldnt be here  haha.. However.... I think it depends on the age , not the age gap so much, if there 18 y/o and dating a 35 y/o thats not right.... If yer 30 and dating a 45 y/o, I think thats ok, Maturity has to be there... Just my opinion...

All it seems to be showing is that they are together because of feelings, not looks. And since they both are 30, are probably perfect for each other.

Heck yeah!!!  All that matters is if the two people are compatable.  Age is just a number.

Nothing wrong with dating someone twenty years older if it works for both of you.  And you are at least 18.

Well, it depends. Are you a man or a woman? \n\nThe age, the man should be older, by one day or a few years, it doesn't matter. He should be no more the 120% of the woman's age.\n\nCourtship: 18 months.  \n\nYes, it's nice to be friends too. That way you'll actually like each other once the sexual passion wears off.\n\nI would not recommend that the woman have a higher level of education than the man. Equal is fine.

I believe that both parties need to be of age or at least close to it. As long as they are happy, I don't see where we have the right to tell them they are wrong. My BF has a cousin in her 30s and her husband is 83! They are happy. She is his life...literally, she is what keeps him young!\n\nNo age is not an issue it is a number!

Here's one for you, I'm 25, and my boyfriend, whom I've been with for almost a year now.. is 18. And believe it or not, it works amazingly well, I've never been happier and he's far more mature and loving than my ex-husband ever was (and he's my same age). How many 18 year olds do you know who fall in love with divorced women with two kids? LOL He's really amazing.\n\nI don't think age makes too much of a difference, as long as you're both LEGAL.\n\nAlso a friend of mine's fiance is eleven years older and they've been together for years, even have a child together.

There's always the possibility of problems in ANY long-term relationship.  But in this case, age difference shouldn't be a problem unless they choose to LET it be one.

Depends on the people-She is of legal age so if they are okay with it I don't see any problem-That is only 14 years and I have friends who have been happily married for years with that difference in age.
