- Hum,
- Don't know about 6 years. But it appears between 9 and 10
- years age difference does cause some sort of problem from my
- past experience. In getting to know a woman recently, she was 10 years
- younger then I, I found no problems when communicating over the
- network with her and even when talking with her. It appears though
- that she had some problems with the age as she has recently
- been rather cool about taking the relationship any further.
-
- I think age plays a bigger role when one is in their 20's ,as this
- is when a lot of major changes take place in ones personailty.
- Just think at this point the younger of the two people may not even
- be out of university and the older of the two may well be into their
- chosen career. The older person will probally have sown most of their
- wild seeds also, while the younger still has the desire to plant a few more
- gardens ).
-
- But on the other hand, this type of age difference can be good because
- their is a lot the older person can teach the younger person. The older
- person usally has much more time for romance also as he has a lot of
- the getting started in a career stuff out of the way. The older person
- probally would be a much more patient lover and listener as he
- has learned (hopefully) from past relationships what being a thoughtful
- partner is about.
-
- The younger person would be good for the older in that they would
- bring a much more youthful way of looking at life back to the older one.
- They could do this in such ways as new music, food, friends etc..
- I can also attest to that the younger person helps the older one to
- re-look at everything in his life again and start his mind thinking about
- things that have long been dormant.
-
- So the best advice I can give to you is listen to half the advice from
- you heart and half from your head, then make your choice. But always
- remember once you make your choice never look back because yesterday is
- over you shoulder and the best you can do is make tomorrow great.
-
- Well that's just one "Old Man's" point of view.
