writes: I am 43. I have met a woman that is 24 and we never have a dull moment together. We are becoming closer by the second. It's kind of scary because of the age difference for the both of us, but we just have the greatest time together. It's like nothing else matters and we have so much fun. In fact, time flies faster when we are together. I don't think she knows what true love is yet being so young, but then again, I'm no expert either! Does anyone have any thoughts on my situatuion? If it feels good enough for long enough, should I really consider this relatioship for long term? Reply to this Question

 I say good on you and both thumbs up, I have a very strong dis agreeance with anything that say "he's to old for you" all that matters is that you love this women and she loves you, you've just been around on the planet a bit longer. If you both enjoy yourselves then the age is no huge problem, do not turn your back on the fact that your older, but do not let it stand in the way of what matters either. Talk about it until it isn't a uncomfortable topic anymore. Talk about it enough and it will be added in as a part of your relationship, not somthing you;d rather not think about.
But no, Age differance is no big deal and I support everyone who faces the challenge of dating someone much older/younger then them!
Salute, and good luck

All this thinking may well be the demise of your relationship!

 i dont see there being a problem with a 19 yr gap between the both of you, you are both adults. If you are well and truly happy in carrying on with the relationship then i suggest you stop worrying about the age gap because obviously your girlfriend doesnt have a problem with it. Being hapy with someone and never having a dull moment is realy what you would want in a relationship, and if you both don't know what true love is then you should find out together. So talk to her and find out if she would like to take the relationship on long term

 Hey
My partner and I have an age gap of 19 years and the only problem we have ever encountered was erm, er, hmm, well nothing!
He looks young, acts young and feels young! My parents think he's great and they know he looks after me, ok were on different stages in life, he has his own business and I'm still at uni but it doesn't stop us. We have fun, go out for dinner and hang out with mates!
The only reason why its worked out is beacause we both understand that he may have done all the things I have not, so he's cool with it when I go out with my mates, you need to have plenty of fun and keep the spark there and most importantly, we really love each other!
Don't see why it shouldn't be long term, what my fella found it hard though was that I still have plenty of life to live before I settle down and that, whereas he wants a family, but he figured this, I love her so I'll stand by her and wait for her!
I agree with Mr Ponunalungb....carpe diem! xx

 If it feels good enough for long enough, it WILL be considered a long term relationship. As long as both of you are happy, that's all that matters. Carpe diem!
