[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The problem with being 23 is that a lot of the guys your age are too immature or not wanting  to be in a relationship. But the guys in their early thirties who go out with women in their early to mid twenties....eh, in my experience a lot of times those guys are scuzzy and immature too.

That's a big age gap. Do you want to be fifty when he is sixty? It matters a lot. You'll take care of him and then likely wind up being old and alone yourself after playing nurse maid.[/quote]

Op here and to be quite honest I don’t even feel like 9 years is a lot. How do you know he won’t be taking care of me? It happened to my aunt and her husband. She got Alzheimer’s and she was 10 years younger than her husband. [/quote]

DP. When I was 21 I dated a 34 year old and agree with PP. At the TIME it felt like he was great, but in hindsight, he was not.

That doesn't mean this is the case for your prof but I'd be on the lookout. Guys in their 30s dating women in their early 20s want to have fun and screw around with low drama and low investment. I'm sure there are exceptions to the rule but I'd be wary.

And my mom married someone 11 years her senior (when she was late 20s and he was around 40). She ended up taking care of him and frequently talks about how that age difference didn't matter at all in the 40s and 50s but began to matter quite a bit when he got into his mid to late 60s. [/quote]
