Confidence? Experience? Success?

It doesn't matter. If you're both single and you think (s)he might be interested, go for it.

Thanks. It's he. Dr - yes - might want to add good looks to that list as well lol!!

I fell for a man 15 years older than me. Dr as well. I ended up marrying him. Wink Older can mean wiser and kinder.

I can understand this. Although men eighteen years older than me are in their late seventies... Grin

If you are both free and single, YANBU.
Why would you be?

EmmaC78 · 30/08/2017 21:24

Same here although he is 16 years older and a work colleague! I am also asking why, why, why ☺

DH is 12 years older than me, our relationship works well. Go for it.

MumBod · 30/08/2017 21:27

Yup, I did this. 15 years older than me. It was ten years ago now.

Was it a good idea?

Hang on, I'll just ask him...Wink

Well, I may not be qualified to post here - DH is almost 4 years younger than me Grin

DH is 20 years older than me. We've been together 20 years and married for 5. If you're both single then go for it!
