It was amazing. But I know there are a couple of factors that mean it can't be long term. So I need some advice really, just go with it and enjoy it while it lasts? Or end it now because of these factors that almost certainly won't change, to avoid being hurt in the future?

I'm inspired - my max age diff on online dating sites was five years younger - ten years older... I'm going to have to look at ten years younger (I'm 35)!

Another one here who has a date with a lovely, funny, sexy, interesting, intelligent, no game player younger guy. I'm 42 he's 32. It's a first for me. Men my age all seem so boring and full of themselves. I think this could be the way to go. Grin

Yes I would highly recommend it Smile ice always fancied guys a bit younger rather than older, I'm 35 but probably look 28-30, and that's the age difference I've often gone for, but I've never gone 10 years younger before! It's an eye opener Grin

I told dp he has to quit smoking if he wanted to get serious as I didn't want a smoker around my kids. He quit in September and moved in in April.
The age difference would bother me more as it can't be fixed!

30 minutes is nothing I dated someone who lived 250 miles away.
Hell yeah to the younglings I only dated older men when I was a teen. DH is only 3 years younger than me though. I dated a guy of 20 when I was 30. Dumped him because he wanted to become too serious. I look a lot younger than I am it's really because I'm mixed race.

none of those things would be dealbreakers for me. Can he change to e-cigs?
