[Closed] Dating a younger woman!

Just personally though, I'm happy being with someone roughly my own age.

Me too - it's just that people assume "ma missus" to be young enough for me to be a lucky b'stard, extremely rich or hung like a donkey 🙂 we just tell them I feed her on the blood of our teenage sacrfice victims, seems to keep them from delving too deeply into our marital affairs

either that or I am wearing my age worse than Jeremy Clarkson 🙁

Can someone explain the graph, it seems overly complicated?

Read your age off the blue line, the minimum age you can date without failing the creepy rule (1/2 age + 7) is value of the red line on the vertical axis.

So if you're 70 you can date 41 ish, but if you're 18 you can only get away with 16.

So what is the horizontal scale?

Their age on x axis [ horizontal
Your age on y axis [ vertical]

The dating is the easy bit; its when (if in your case) you get introduction to the parents.
I can still feel the hostility of my future mother in laws* glare over the table as i was "checked out" at our first meeting.

* we are best friends now, well as best you can be and 16 years later.

[quote=monkeycmonkeydo ]Any experiences,suggestions,joys,pitfalls etc.Thanks for any advice.

Admit it, you didn't post looking for advice. You just wanted to gloat to all the other middle aged blokes (in bad marriages) on here.

What have I started?

I'd date a younger woman. I said at work I'd see Taylor Swift and I was met with euwww your way too old for her!

I just spotted this thread was one above anal bleaching in the list (it won't be now).

Your Grandad was what is technically known as a Lucky Bastard.

Well he did lead a rather adventurous life until settling down in his 50s buying a farm on Anglesey spending much time shooting and generally socializing with old money types. So she joined in on all of that and presumably feels she had a better life than she would have done marrying one of the Holyhead ruffians.... They used to own Penrhos and the land around Anglesey Aluminium which some of you will know.

Does she cycle? All that matters really.

Not sure on Mowglis graph. When I'm 55, I can 'date' a women who's 100........... Surely that's wrong. I mean saggy boobs and all that for starters........and teeth............ and zimmers......euurrgghhhh

Having smashed that half your age + 7 on two occasions, once in my thirties and again in my forties I can only offer this.I did learn from the mistakes I made first time round....unfortunately I then went on to make a whole bunch of new ones 🙁

Well get yourself to the gym then to tighten up those boobs!

I always thought age/2 +7 was the ideal not the maximum.....

Every girlfriend I've had has been younger than me, two were fourteen years younger, one nine years, never been a problem.
Probably because in my head I'm still around twenty or so...

May to December weddings were apparently quite common following the US Civil War, so there's plenty of historical precedent.

From Wikipedia:

[i]Maudie Hopkins (December 7, 1914 – August 17, 2008) was an American woman believed to be the last publicly known surviving widow of a Civil War veteran.
Born as Maudie Cecilia Acklin in Baxter County, Arkansas, she married William M. Cantrell (aged 86) on February 2, 1934, when she was 19. Cantrell had enlisted in the Confederate States Army at age 16 in Pikeville, Kentucky, and served in General Samuel G. French's Battalion of the Virginia Infantry. He was captured in 1863, and was part of a prisoner exchange. He had had a previous wife, who died in 1929.[/i]

A friend of mine is married to a guy she got together with when she was 18 and he was 30. He was also a teacher at her old school...

Wifes friend (43) is about to move in with her 72 year old "boyfriend". So.... half you age plus 7, eh?

Was seeing a 26 year old last year. I'm 44. She was worth it. 🙂
