What's the biggest age difference between you and any past or current lover?
Do you prefer older men or younger? Why?

Currently there is a 12 year age difference between Dh and myself. Biggest gap came when I was 28 and he was in his 50's. There was another time when I was 18 and he was 36!
Only twice have I been with a younger man, my 28 to his 21. Personally I think there's a huge difference between younger and older men. It's rare you find a younger man who has the experience an older man does. The knowledge how to pleasure the woman and thus get his own pleasure.
Would I go back to a younger guy? I don't know, ask me when I'm in my 70's! LOL

Liz you could have been writing my post! I've always been attracted to older men. My parents friends I'd be hanging out with them instead of their kids! Shoot several of them I fantazied about. LOL
And in the past 8 years I've lived more then most people have in their lifetime! So finding people my age who have been through as much as I have is almost impossible. Sso again I end up feeling like I have more in common with someone older then me.
My bf is 14 years older than me. In general, I do NOT like older men, but for him, I make an exception. He's a very talented and sweet man.
My gf is 7 years older than me... but I think I like my ladies older than me like that.
My DH is 16 months younger than me... about the same age. I'm very comfortable with that... almost no age difference at all, and I'm just barely ahead of him. Perfect!
"In Civilization and Its Discontents, Freud argued that civilization is founded on the repression of instincts. It now seems clear that one of those instincts leads us away from monogamy. Whether we choose to follow, on the other hand, is up to us."
