Yes, absolutely. I've always perferred oldern men, however, I have dated younger (youngest was by about 6 years) and I'd have to say, if the connection, ideals, attraction is there... age wouldn't matter.

My question to the poster is : are you really ready to get married, settle down, and have kids. I'm nine years older than you, and that is what comes to my mind if you were to get matched with me. I would never want to feel like I made you jump too far ahead on the maturity scale and kept you outa the bars when you should been whooping it up in your early 20's. I'm tired of the bar scene and would keep you out of it if you were dating me.
I would not want to feel like I forced you to grow up too quickly. You only get your youth once, and when that is gone you can't turn back the clock. I would really have a hard time believing that you are ready to give that all up. There is a huge differance between wanting a relationship and wanting to get married.
It may be hard to believe, but for most people...a huge maturity transition takes place in your 20-30's...I laugh at my 20 year old self...I thought I knew it all, my 30 year old self says "Crap, I got a lot to learn still."
For me it depends on what stage the guy is in his life, If I meet a great younger guy, who has managed to settle down on his own without any coaching from me...then I would give him a chance.
