I have been in a fair few bad relationships over the years with guys my own age and I always feel like the mature one or the only adult in my relationships.I love that he is independant, loving and knows how to treat a woman as well as respects the person I am.The added bonus is he wants children something that none of my past boyfriends have even been willing to consider.He is everything I have been looking for.Should I just go for it or hang out for someone closer to my own age.

You are in your late 20's now, thats not exactly condsidered young for a female. I would not waste time.
Just make sure you really love him, not just wanting anybody to fill the void.
Keep in mind even with a older men the divorce rate is miserable in America, 75% divorce rate over all over. Maximize your chances. Statistically marriages in America between two white spouses is likely to end up in divorce. Education level, financial standing and even imputency doesn't help maintain a monogamous realtionship.

 Do you like a man for his experience or for his youth?
That will answer your question.
A youthful person may not have the experience
while an experience person may not have the youth.
Who do you find it more enjoyable and happier?
Don't let other's opinion ruin your happiness.

Spend it being happy and with the people you love most. If he is everything you've been looking for, why look for something else. This is your chance to be happier than you've ever imagined being happy.

My gf is 48 & I am 26! Love is blind. If he makes you feel the way you say he does then go with what is in your heart. I would not rush into having kids with him until you get married. Having kids out of wedlock is not a good foundation for a family. However not all things that happen are intended. Just remember that the effects of our decisions can be felt for a very long time. Having kids with someone older may leave you raising them on your own. But we are not guaranteed our tomorrows and sometimes fate works in mysterious ways.
