[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you kidding?! I’m jealous! If anyone hates on it, they probably are too!

I dated a younger guy (24, I was 32) and was also worried I’d rob him of his youth. That’s actually what ended things, he felt I looked down on him because of his age and didn’t trust him to be an adult and make his own decisions. So [b]stop treating him like a kid and treat him with the same respect you’d have for a 34 year old man. If you get serious and it’s clear he doesn’t want to settle down on the same timeframe you do, then end things[/b]. [/quote]

I don’t know if you read thru the “when did you meet your spouse thread” but there are a ton that met their spouses in their mid 20’s.  If you are worried about his maturity, I would counter that you can’t make a blanket statement.  There are some guys that are ready to be in a relationship that within a few years will lead to marriage when they are in their 20’s and there are some that are not.  Even though women have he biological clock working against them if they want kids, there are some women ready to be in the relationship leading to marriage in their 20’s and there are some that are not.  You have to look at the individual - is this even someone you want to be in a relationship with, how is the chemistry, communication and compatibility.  Both of you having similar thoughts about timelines and the type of commitment falls under compatibility.[/quote]
