She is 25 year old and dating a 50 something year old dude.. Is there anything we can do?

If you or your daughter dated someone who was your parents age how long did it last? Should we say something?

Don't interfere or you will just push her away.

Maybe it's a real match, and they will have a great life together, or maybe she is just kicking up her heels some for fun. Either way, it's her decision.

It's normal for younger women to want an older man with a 10-20 year age gap, because men act like children until their late 30s or older, and some never grow up. With todays zoomers and millennials, they all act like man-children, playing video games and other childish behaviors.

No. It’s not.

History and human relations says yes it is.
You are either out of touch or pushing an agenda.

History?

Yes, past and present. Majority of women worldwide marry a man several years her senior.

It's basic evolutionary science to do so, as women mature faster and also age faster, than men. Also for stability.

Here in the USA many women have been duped into thinking they should marry their own age or younger men, but that's one of the big reasons for the increasing divorce rates.

My husband and I are the same age and we have been married for 40 years. We know at least five other couples from our college who also have been married 40 years or longer. We all feel feel that being a similar age has been a big advantage in creating strong bonds as a married couple.

That's simply splendid, dear.

Yes, marriages between equals are more likely to be happy and long term.

Have you ever chatted with a couple who are both in their 80s and have been married for decades? They share memories of their whole lives, having grown up during the same years and then marrying and having their children. Having common experiences at similar ages makes for strong bonds and enhances the richness of their relationship.

Uh...no. The median ages of men and women marrying in all 1st world countries (US, Europe, Japan, Korea) is roughly the same. It's like 28 for women and 29 for men.

You are comparing apples and oranges. Also racist.

I know 2 ladies married men 20+ older. Both are 2nd marriages and have been going strong for 10+ years.

Are you for real? Girls have indeed been married off to older men for much of human history. But that is not because it is natural for young women to want an older man with a 20 year age difference. It is because they had no choice.

Sounds more like apples to apples. Wouldn’t apples-to-oranges be comparing to third-world countries?

Also: racist? How???

Your life is really bizarre if you think about Trump when talking about sugar daddy’s of some internet stranger.

99% of them are MAGA or Republicans.
Not like the whole Republican party is not filled with child abusers and if you look at red states hum MO & Tennessee are passing loving laws about checking kids genitals and marrying girls age 10 and Idaho is building maternaty homes for breeding.

Are you really that stupid? Sorry, cutting to the chase.

Why does it matter how old she is? As long as he’s not TOO YOUNG seems fine.

Age =/= "equality" in a relationship.
Age has nothing to do with being "equals". Thinking that it does is rather childish thinking.

[Anonymous]

Age isn't a definitive measure of equality but it's clearly a factor. A 25 and 50 year old are not equals unless the 50 y/o is a complete screwup.

[Anonymous]

I grew up in South Asian country. Although it was acceptable pre-70's for boomers, I don't know anyone in generation X who married someone with 10+ year age unless they had no other options and wanted marriage and financial security. Most of us married men our own age or within 1-5 year older than us..

[Anonymous]

Smart. If you marry a man close to your age, you're stuck with him your whole life.

[Anonymous]

Op where is she taking him?? You’ve left us in real suspense.

Notice how you don't say "unless the 25 year old is mature and level headed". That says more about YOU than anything else you could have said.

Hence divorce rates that were 5% for Greatest Gen/Silent Gen, 10% for Boomers, and now exploded to 50% for Gen X and 65% for millenials/zoomers.

Women are doing it to themselves, marrying men their age or younger is against Nature and a recipe for them to become single before their 50s or even 40s when the men trade them in for a younger model.
