[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does she want in the future?  Kids?  The social dynamics are very weird.  Most adults still hang out with adults of roughly the same age.  People will make assumptions about you and most of them are not positive.  Get used to waiters assuming she's out with her dad.

I have a good friend whose parents had a 20+ year age gap.  The parents seemed socially isolated and her mother had to basically stop her life for years to take care of her father.

I can see what's in it for you, but I can't see what's in it for your partner...[/quote]
He must be very wealthy .. Otherwise why would she be interested[/quote]

OP here.... oddly enough over the past few years of I've found the older women I've dated (38 +) to be more overtly interested in money. Frequently point blank asking questions about annual income, net worth (including balance in retirement accounts and savings accounts), etc. I've found it somewhat disturbing at times. [/quote]

Because older women know that it costs money to live comfortably, and money is usually one of the biggest reasons couples fight.  Your 20 yr old doesn't know this yet.  She's too young and hasn't experienced life enough.  You're going to be a husband and father figure to her at the same time.   I don't see this ending up very well.

She's still a kid.  Despite what you may think about how mature she is, women tend to change a lot (and I'm not talking just physically)  into their late 20's/early 30's.  I know men do too.  So just keep this in mind.[/quote]
