To sleep with a 23 year old?

[Possomoppossum]

Given that I am 42,he knows full well how old I am,we met on a dating site where he wanted to meet older women.ok or creepy age gap?

He probably wants a woman who already has a home, can cook, can do experienced sex, etc - in other words a nice, comfy, ready-made life. Easy pickings for a 23 year old. What about when you are 70 and he’s in his prime at around 50? Noooooo!

It's for nobody else to choose, but you.
I am a little younger and I wouldn't, purely because I like an slightly older man. If you don't have children near his age (because that could be weird) and you're both clear on boundaries, go for it. You're allowed a sex life, you're consenting adults.
If top celebs can date younger men, why can't everyday folk?

Go for it, you are both adults and single. would a 42 year old man be asking if it was OK to sleep with a 23 year old woman, I don't think so! technically you are not doing anything wrong. great ego boost for you aswell I suppose that you can still attract a 23 year old!

Just a couple of weeks ago i did this. I'm 47 but look much younger, and his profile said 38, but we started chatting and he told me he was actually 23. We were already really having a good laugh, so continued, met up in person and spent the night having AMAZING sex, chatting and laughing. One of the best experiences I've ever had, and he was absolutely gorgeous. Ignore the haters, go ahead and do it, who cares what anyone else says here?

I don’t think he’s probably looking for a long term relationship…😂

If you were a man, no one would bat an eyelid or care. If you want to, go for it. Don't let other peoples hang ups stop you enjoying your life.

You're just looking to get laid, get stuck in. I don't see the problem

Get yours!! 😘

I think it’s gross. You are old enough to have the son the same age.

If the genders were reversed more people would be saying it’s disgusting as well.

Legal does not mean it’s the moral thing to do.

You will hopefully appreciate his stamina. Go for it.

Legal does not mean it’s the moral thing to do.

Can you explain why it's immoral though?

Why not?

Reminds me of Only fools and horses when Rodney went out with the older woman. 🙄 I would leave it to the sit com's

Met a gorgeous guy while on holiday here in the UK many moons ago. Exchanged numbers,met up wow!...he was 24,I was 38,still together 27 years later. You do you we only have one life,enjoy it.

I’m amazed at the prejudice against women being older than men. I’d have thought times would have moved on. Whereas it is seen as a trophy for a man to increasingly go for younger women the more successful he becomes it is seen as ‘utterly creepy’ if a woman has a relationship with a man a decade or two younger?
Why still the double standard it makes little sense. Women live longer so would have longer time with their spouses if they were younger.
My last partner was 12 years younger than me. We were together for twelve years. Sadly he died of MND. There was some prejudice that we thought very reactionary. He was a musician, very popular, very beautiful and a lot of younger women tried very hard to seduce him. I don’t know why he fell for me, I’d known him a little for a couple of years before he courted me, I resisted him at first because I didn’t believe it, thought he was just being charming. He was very charming. He was 26 I was 38 and recently separated from my husband. But I had also just graduated as a mature student so i was used to even younger people over the past four years.
One of the main reason we got together was how brilliant he was with my kids. I learnt so much from him. And the kids loved him. I’d have thought the prejudice would have lessened by now but it seems worse and people seem to increasingly just treat each other like sex objects. How unromantic and sad.

Wh9 sees it as a trophy if a man is with a younger woman. Speak for yourself, the rest of us think it’s just as creepy

You want what ever. He just wants to shag someone as often as possible, and someone always be on standby for a quick shag.

Why are you shagging a 23 year old?

Are you still trying to be 23 or do you just need affirmation that you're still attractive?

Nah if OP had been a bloke asking this I'd have called them an inadequate wrongun

Go for it, have fun, life’s short. You both seem to know what it is, and that’s fine. Good for you. Ignore the jealous/haters.

Oh the shock of it - a woman with a sex drive wanting no strings fun with a consenting adult. How terrible!

You must have doubt or you wouldn’t ask on here.
personally I think it’s a bit too young and you are old enough to be his mum, that thought alone would put be right off.

Lots of guys in their early 20’s seem to at some point go for an older partner.
You are both consenting adults - it’s no one else’s business.
It is never going to be anything other than a bit of fun

Well I recently watched The Idea Of You (40 year old woman and 24 year old Harry Styles-esqe pop star) twice in two weeks and thought jt was fab and pretty romantic.. so I guess I'd be a hypocrite to say anything but "go for it"!

In this day of equality and enlightenment, there are very few people who would comment if it was a man with a young lady. In fact there are quite a few celebrities in this category.

Bang the fuck out of him and enjoy it, you only live once!
