Do you think it's silly or stupid for me to even think about liking someone who is 18 years younger than me. I'm 43 and he's 25. And i really like him. He's kind of of shy in a cute way. He calls all the time but not everyday and wants to get together, go to movies, go out for drinks, go out with frinds or just hang out at home. Sometimes I think he's just in it for the conquer. But he doesn't act like it though. Maybe that's just me. He says the age doesn't bother him and he doesn't want kids. We've
been going out for a month now. Do you really think anything can come out of this. Another thing. They say that the girl should not call the guy. He wants me to call him and i'm not use to calling guys all the time. Is it alright to call the guy this early in the relationship.

slf1980 1962...

Pianoguy is sure there some sort of "rhyme or reason" connected with your ivillage user name....but he's completely puzzled what it might be??? ANYWAY...

Are you comfortable dating a person who is 18 years younger than you? Or are you afraid some of your....err....friends....will accuse you of ROBBING THE CRADLE????

Depending upon which REACTION is more important....that's the direction in which to head!

Pianoguy, I graduated in 1980 and was born in 1962. So maybe you won't be confused now. Well neither one bothers me. Most of my friends are in there late 20's and early 30's anyway. He says it doesn't bother him either so I guess we'll see when it comes to meeting some of his family then won't we.
Thanks,
