[quote=Anonymous]I dated a 50 year old when I was 30. It was a horrible mistake. I told myself the same things -- he seems younger, he acts younger. And I, too, thought he was younger when we first met. The problem is that over time, it became very clear that he thought that because he was older and wiser, that he knew best. And no, he didn't act like that at first (or I would have NEVER dated him). I think the caretaker thing is another thing to take into account. Sure, you could marry someone your own age and still end up caring for them for a number of years. But when you date someone 20 years older, that's pretty much a given. The entire relationship just felt incredibly uneven. There was also a strange power dynamic that emerged. I never would have predicted it, because like you, I thought he acted younger, et cetera, et cetera. I wouldn't go on the date. Once you start dating, you will get emotionally attached.[/quote]
