is it possible for a 22 year old woman and a 54 year old man to be in love and have a "normal" relationship??

Absolutely you can have a "normal" relationship. You'll have to come to terms with a lot of facts that don't exist in other relationships, though. I.E. He will likely die long before you, you'll be reaching your sexual peak when he's reaching a point of major sexual decline, etc, etc.\n\nIf you love him, you love him. Age is no reason to miss out on love.

These girls dont know what there talking about. Ive been exactly where you are. I was 18 and I fell inlove with some 42. It sounds so bad. I know its not "normal" but its not wrong either. I dont feel like you should cheat on your husband even if you've asked for a divorce. I feel that you should wait until its completely over. If the older man trully has feelings for you then he will wait. I wish you the very best!

I was married when I was 16 and he was 18.  That was 21 years ago.  We are even happier and more in love now than when we were married.  We are each others best friend and ALWAYS make time for the other no matter what.  Communication is definately a must. You can't expect the other to know what is on your mind.  Neither of you are mind readers. ALWAYS respect each other.  Our rule is whoever gets whatever whenever.  Sometimes you need to just spice things up.  It has worked well even with having five kids from 17 down to 4 year old twins!  To really make sure it will last forever...add God and it will!

Yes, it can happen, but don't expect it to last. Everyone's growing and changing at that age and unless you're very lucky, you'll grow apart from each other rather than together.\n\nAs for what it's like - more intense than anything you'll ever experience again, so if you do fall in love, cherish it! Love when you're older is just as good, if not better, but it's never quite the same.

Yes..it happened to me when I was 12 years old.  I am now 54 and have been married to that girl for 24 years.  Chemistry plays a big part in this love game

As long as two adults find a common ground, they work. My BF is 20 years older (I'm 27) and I can't imagine my life without him. We are on the same level in so many ways - maturity, goals, opinion, etc. Like any relationship, it comes down to a balance of give & take, acceptance, and respecting each other. I believe people come into our lives for a reason, and we learn and grow from them. Being in love is the greatest feeling in the world and age shouldn't stop anyone from experienceing it.

Who are these middle aged men are they married?  Maybe they didn't marry the right one.  Me and my husband have been married 15 years(not all easy). I love him more today than I did 17 years ago when I met him and our sex is greater than ever.  If you love each other, are committed to each other and can share your thoughts and emotions GO FOR IT!!!\n\nGood Luck:-)

Considering your typing style and use of slang, I'm going to guess you arn't actually a 64 year old (wow, that was hard).\n\nHowever, if a 64 year old man was interested in an 18 year old girl, I would tell him this:  Dream on, she isn't going to be attracted to you, unless your wallet is very very fat!

this with out a dought is a very good question in my opion, after reading this as what you said that it was your fault that takes a real man to openley say this and in my opion to you as well as her yes you can still find love even after all those years and you both have.5. grandchildren, as well to grown children in my opion yes you can still be in love with this lady , and this is hard for me to say this question brought tears to my eyes fellow dont blow it this time you had a read loving woman and i truley admire you on this question. go let this woman know your true feelings . good luck and god bless you both . yes you can ?

No i think that is perfectly fine!!! Well i would think that when me and my better half got together i was 20 and he was 29, 3 years later and we have a awsome strong relationship, i was ready for something serious to plant my feet into and so was he, we had alot of things in common, i mean yes there are times when i think wow hes really been around alot more then i have and i can feel a little bit intimidated, but in the long run im thankfull he has those experiances to help guide our steps, I think he has come to believe that im never going to be perfect, even though i really try to do everything well, im not completely at his level on thinking, he has more life lessons to reflect on, but i dont think its a problem when we both discuss everything and keep the lines of communication open, just like any other relationship, my best friend is in the same boat, her husband is 10 years older then her and oddly enough shes the more responcible one, i dont see why any one would think its wrong, now if you were 25 and she was 15 there might be a huge responce to you sick mo fo lol but i dont think there is anything wrong with you liking her, ask her out, she might be into older guys, and with good reason, guys that are 20-24 are enough to make you want to puke, they only want one thing, they havnt figured out yet theres more to life then a nice set of boobs lol they dont know how to deal with money worth a crap, they only look out for themselfs, where older guys have alot more figured out, theres so many more perks to dating a older guy i could go on forever, more or less your more established at 30... id say go for it :) you have nothing to lose

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

Back at ya,, A woman and man reagrdless of age,, WILL last if the "bond" is made,, regardless of age,, I have seen 70 yr old women who are incredibly hot and sensual,, as well as sexxy. I also know from "exeperience, that relationships in the right context,, regardless of age,, will last...\n\noxoxo Tom

Yes. Age is a number and providing the reason that both parties are together is not based on reasons other than love (lust?) then there is not a problem.  That is the question that needs to be seriously consulted however.  There is no law being broken and if they are happy then so what. You must also take into account the maturity of both people.  I knew people at 14 who were more mature than those aged 20, likewise now, I know 25-30 year olds who have the maturity of a late teen.\n\n(and no, I'm not a 40year old dating a teenage girl, I'm 22...and prefer men anyway ;-p)

nahh..in love age doesnt matter..besides if the two of you are experiencing true love well theres nothing wrong with it.

Guess it all depends.  I know my friend, her grandparents were 36 years apart.  She was 35, he was 71, and it lasted, and was real love.  I've never seen it done besides this, but yes, it can work.  I don't believe he should have left his wife.  :(  But aside from that, if that part wasn't in the equation, I would say it can work.  With it in the equation though, someone that will cheat to get you, will usually cheat on you as well.  I've seen that happen MANY times :(

yes... my sister met her fiance and started dating when they were 16... i no people that have been together since they were 14 so ofcourse.. u dont have to be a certain age to fall in love... infact heres a great quote:\nyou can drive at 16..go to war at 18, drink at 21 and retire at 65, how old do you have to be to be in love?
