LOL! The questions were rhetorical... I'm smart enough to already know the answers...

your comments are just too stupid to respond to.

Really?

If this is in referance to the post from Special K, on what basis do you make this statement?

If you are going to date 20 years younger, and not 20 years older, then a person who may well be on the other side of that choice has every right to ask the question.

So I have two questions:

Question one: This guy that's coming for dinner tonight has told me again that he's going to be a few minutes late (he was 20 minutes late last time but gave me adequate warning...as he did today).



. I wouldn't read too much into it. There are reasonable explanations such as bad rush hour traffic or a car accident.

Question two: I'm 28. eH has recently been sending me people out of my specified age range (I'm 27-38) and two of the 44 year olds requested communication. I would be all over them. Should I give it a go or is 16 years too much?

Thoughts?
Guess I can't communicate with you then...

In all honesty 16 years is too much. At 28 I'd suggest an age range of say 26-36.

To those guys you are his midlife crisis and wanting. Fountain of youth.

Ah! Thanks, DL! You get a Friday night roll call smooch for that.

But, I really already know the answer...

On the basis of this question "And for how long... really... would you date someone young enough to be your daughter.."

At the point of the reading the 2nd question I gave up and decided her question just sounded like someone bitter with her own experiences so pointless to answer.

Disclaimer: There was no bitterness in the formulating of said question...

Just a thought-provoking idea that if one thinks it's okay to date so much younger, why not consider what it might be like from the younger person's perspective dating you.

But if you'd go either way then fair's fair...

Yes, but we all know the answer to that question: Every day that goes by.

I actually don't see anything in the comment that is bitter...it's a factual statement that someone is young enough to be your daughter....or old enough to be your mother....It goes both ways...

I know for me...there is no way I would date a 23 year old...I would have absolutely nothing in common with them....as well as I have so many of my youth group kids that are that age that I've watched grow up since they were 13...nope....not for me...

But again...there isn't anything wrong with those choices...just wouldn't interest me at all.

disagree.

no one has a right to date another. my deal breakers are mine. yours are yours. they are not open to interpretation, discussion or negotiation.

i has often called "hypocrite" for choosing to not dating single mothers.

*shrug...
