Is 14 years too much of an age gap in a relationship?

Do you think that a 14 year age difference is too much for a relationship? Could you see a 28 year old being able have a relationship with a 42

Old Is 14 years too much of an age gap in a relationship?
Do you think that a 14 year age difference is too much for a relationship? Could you see a 28 year old being able have a relationship with a 42 year old man? The man has never been married before and has no kids, but he's probably a lot more "experienced" than the woman as far as relationships go, which might kind of make the woman feel akward. But if the guy was nice, looked 10 years younger than he really is, and you had a lot in common with him, would you say go for it or not?

Oh - and the guy is only 6 years younger than your mother...

If you're both consenting adults, what's the problem?

Isn't that the age difference between Bey and Jay?

I say go for it! After a certain point in life, what's the big deal anyway?

Old Re: Is 14 years too much of an age gap in a relationship?
Sure, it happens all the time. It's hard though at times because at 28 you want totally different things than you want at 42 and you're on different planes. You may know you want a family at 28 or whatever but usually at 42, he's already been there done that with kids already or either he wants to knock you up right away because his own clock is ticking especially if he doesn't have kids yet.
Also, you still wanna party at 28 because you're young.....he may want to be at home and I"ve seen that be the source of tons of conflict.
I like older men myself though but it's those little things you gotta think about. A lot of older men want to control a young girl so you gotta watch out for those like that who can't maintain relationships with women in their age vicinity so they look to you.

Exactly like if the ages are 70 and 84, doesn't matter because they are both old...

I agree, depends where you are in life. 45 and 59? Whatever, you're both fully grown. 18 and 32 gives me pause.

Old Re: Is 14 years too much of an age gap in a relationship?
@ 28 that's surely an adult age - this person should be able to make a sound decision about a relationship with another adult. There are some sexy 42 year olds out there btw.

Old Re: Is 14 years too much of an age gap in a relationship?
Nope, I say go for it. But I heard older married women say sometimes they wished that they married a younger man because their husbands are running into health issues, and they can't do as much together.
