I have a friend in a 26 age gap talking stage, he’s 31, she’s 57. If it’s working for you, then I’m not one to comment, if it’s not working, maybe it’s worth re-considering.

When I was 26, I went out with someone who was 42. So 16 years age gap.
But 61 and 23 seems a bit too much of an age gap in my opinion.

My husband and I are six years apart.
That’s enough to have totally different experiences but still have a lot in common.
This age gap of yours is too much in my opinion.
Grown ass men should date their age.
You also should date your own age.
I for one don’t want to be having sex with an 61 year old man until I’m damn near 61 myself.

Youngest i’ll date is a 20 year old, oldest id date is 35 to 40
I think that this is too much of an age gap.
Although my brother is 56 and dating a young woman in her 30s.
They get along great.
I guess it depends but hopefully it’s more than just sex with this guy.
You’ve got to take this into consideration

If you want children and he doesn’t it’s already over.
Age gap doesn’t even matter if you can’t get on the same page about that.

I think it’s too much of an age gap, but it’s really only too much if you feel like it’s too much.
It sounds like you are thinking it’s too much of an age gap.

Got a few questions:
- Does he financially support you?
- Do you live together?
- If you wanted to leave him, would you be able to live independently without any support he may be providing?
It is an unusual relationship dynamic for sure. The main thing that makes people worried about these types of relationships is that a 23 year old might not have enough money to live independently, and be relying on the older person for support of some kind. That kind of imbalance can create weird expectations, even when both parties have good intentions.

My dad’s parents were 22 years apart. They were born in early 1900s. Don’t worry about what other people think. K. If you love each other that’s all that matters.

I think that’s beautiful.
As long as there is real love?
Just needs healthy communication.

My wife was nearly 22 years older than me. In fact she was several months older than my mother. It’s sad to stay that even now an older woman with a younger man is regarded with much negativity and suspicion ,but the opposite is seen as proof of a man’s virility.

Age gap relationships aren’t gonna be viable long-term, but I’d try anything once.

In my opinion, no, however large age gap it doesn’t matter. (as long as you’re both adults)

I guess you need to do what works for you, but I’d feel like a creepy old man for dating someone young enough to be my grandchild.
