Me: 51... She: 63 This is a trend?!? We celebrated our 20-year wedding anniversary last May.

Older women DO NOT “go after” younger men...It’s the younger men that pursue older women...FACTS

My dad was 23 when he married my mom of 37 (widow with 5 kids). My dad passed away in 2020 and my mom turned 100 a month ago.

I'm 49 he's 30 and we've been together 4 years .... He's the best man I've ever dated and I thank God for him 🙏 ❤️

My husband is 12 years younger. We’ve been married 25 years! Love is still strong. 🙏🏻♥️🌹

My man is 11 years younger than me! Loving life with him every single day!!!

Can we stop acting like 5-10 years apart is an age gap? Seriously when any man dates a woman 5-10 years younger no one says anything... Let's stop the sexism. Women can date younger men

I was not looking for a younger man, my husband was not looking for an older woman. We just found each other and really connected. The 7 year age gap has never been an issue because we don’t make a big deal of it, even tend to not notice it after some time. 8 years together and counting ☺️

Me 60. Him 30. Me - married/divorced twice, 4 kids, 11 grandkids. Him-never married, no kids. He is the kindest and most emotionally stable man I have ever been with and/or dated.

I have been seeing a guy who's literally half my age. I thought I was nuts because I was developing feelings for him. This makes me feel so much saner, thank you! I'm just going to enjoy it while it lasts.

As a young man, 24, I’d much rather date a older woman. My generation is so messed up and boring

I am 61 and dated a guy for 5 years that was 21 years younger than me. It was the best relationship I ever had. He ended up moving to Europe but loved him dearly!

I'm a 32 year old man dating a 45 year old woman and honestly I'm just crazy about this woman. We just click and she's old fashioned and people often say I'm like an old soul yet a child at heart. And we just click. I can make her act like a teenager all over again and at the same time we love to spend out mornings sipping coffee, cuddled up, just talking while the dogs are out back playing. I need maturity in my life and so many young women today and well, people in general just have zero maturity. I need a woman I know will stick by me through thick and thin and she does everything and more for me. I dont even expect all the thing she's willing to do. She's also breadwinner too. She's accepted all my flaws and we talk about everything together. I've never felt this type of connection with any other woman. We listen to the same types of music, I got her into video games and guns, she got me into the arts, we both love dancing, bonfires, camping, the beach, dogs, I mean we just get each other. Especially on romance and intimacy!

My 2nd husband of 18 years is 7 years younger than I am. I had/have two sons, I was going through a divorce when I was 30 and he was 24 (never married no children). To say I was terrified was an understatement. Best decision I ever made in a partner relationship.

We met accidentally last 10 yrs ago Now I'm 51 and him 35. Still in love like teenagers

I’m 32, my wife is 53, we’ve been married for 10 years and it is PHENOMENAL:D

My lady is 8 years older I’m 29 she’s 37 we both look about the same age. We both party a lot we both still relate on so many levels. Best relationship I’ve ever been in & couldn’t be happier honestly. Might have to put a ring on her real soon we been going strong 4 years now.

I’m 15 years older than my husband and have been married 33 years. I run circles around him…. We are blessed with good health and a great family. 💕

My guy and I are in love. He's 34. I'm 48. We have a lot in common and the connection is undeniable.

I was never into age gap relationship until I met a guy who is 21 years younger than me. When I came clean to him abt my age, I was ready for him to leave me. But instead he said that he’s very afraid I would leave him for someone else. So yeah… we’ll see where this takes us. To everyone in age gap rs, I wish u all the love. ♥️

My husband is 17 years younger and people either think we are the same age or he is older. Have married and together for 11 years with a 7 year old together. Had the 7 year old at 48 years old!!

My husband is 12yrs younger than me but this is the happiest I've ever been!!! Regardless of what all our friends think.

My husband is 7 years younger than me. Married for 3 together for over 5 years! ❤️Love is love

Thank you SO VERY MUCH for this interview. For years it has been a “ Stigmatized “ subject concerning younger men with older women. I used to hear through the rumor vine that we needed to be with someone who is closer to our own age in order to be able to get along with a perspective partner, and older men needed to be with a younger woman especially if he wanted to have children. My first husband and I were 1 year apart in age with him being older. It was bad enough for me that I was not taught certain things from my mother when I was so young and when I reflected upon her statements to me ,” Grow up , get married and have kids.” it was like she was saying ,” You have no value in life unless you get out there right now and find someone to marry you, so you can have kids. And, I want grandchildren.” I never had an opportunity to date but once. I don’t know what my dad said to the young man but after he brought me home from the football game that we had gone to, he had walked me to the door and said,” I won’t be back again. “ and left. My second husband was even worse than the first one. He was about 10 years older than me and I tried to be more careful with entering this relationship and only committed myself to helping him by seeing him through his time in prison. I was committed to him further by having to marry him in prison so he could have conjugal visits. I felt most fortunate that I was not killed by him about 7 months after his release from prison. That was shocking and suddenly occurred to me without expectation. However, I read all that as my “ Thank you” for my investment. After putting me and my two children I had at the time on a Greyhound bus to Texas to my parents home and 2 years later, I had learned and earned enough to take myself and my two children back to Sacramento, get us settled and had my possessions paid for that were in storage and delivered to me at my new residence. I searched for Legal help and filed for divorce. I had to be strong for my children and myself to take care of them and myself. I earned my G.E.D. , enrolled in college and b fan to pursue an A.A. degree in Administration of Justice. I had been in therapy for my troubled past for two years and in 1988 , while speaking with a couple of notable personalities over the radio ( one of whom owned the radio station business ), I met a young man who was 17 and I was 34 at the time. I had a connection with him in some way; however, even though I said he could call back that following January on or after his birthday we had somehow lost touch with each other until earlier this year. I now find myself in the “ waiting pool 🎱 “ again. Wondering if he was Societally Stigmatized in the interim also. At any rate, I am VERY happy, grateful and satisfied with this program that you have presented to your viewing public regarding the Age Difference in dating and mating Adults and that we don’t have to be Stigmatized for our choices in Love . Age is not always the primary focus in a relationship as much as other psychological and emotional needs are. Once again, Thank You 🙏👍🦋✨✝️ 6:24

I'm 42 he's 32...together 7yrs ♥️♥️♥️ love is in the air

My mom is 15 yrs older than my dad. She is 80 and my dad was 65 (passed away 1 month ago😪). You'd think it was the opposite. My mom acted and looked younger than my dad.

I LOVE this🙌🏽 I'm 50 year old woman dating 33yr old man enjoying EachOther that's all it matters

IM FROM THE MIDDLE EAST ITS NORMAL FOR A YOUNGER MAN TO HAVE AN OLDER WIFE THERES NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT THESE RELATIONSHIPS WORK OUT VERY WELL IN MY COUNTRY.WOMEN SHOULD NEVER BE EMBARRESED IF YOU ARE HAPPY FORGET ABOUT SOCIETY.

Wow so supportive and positive. I am love with someone who is 7 years younger and I'm a woman. I always felt so weird like it was something wrong or should not hv happened. This was such a great video and so powerful

My partner was 26 years younger than I, I lost him in a motor vehicle accident 3 months ago he was my biggest supporter we knew each other for 4 years

Absolutely... I'm 42yrs and my man is 28yrs. This is the most fulfilling relationship I've ever had in my life. He's consistent, shows effort and grounded

I've dated younger men for decades. I'm 80. Fit and very attractive

Life is short enough to worry about what "others" are going to think/judge!

Celebrating 10 years this week with bf who is 20 years younger. It does work and it's great to see it works for other couples too.

I’m older than my husband by 13 years. Most of the judgement from others came from women. We love each other, and the age is not an issue for us.

I am also married to my husband who is 7 years younger. When we met I felt scared and wierd telling him my age because he thought I was younger than him. He is extremely support in everything. We married within a year, I was 40 and now we have two kids.

Good going everyone! The love of my life, was a very handsome young man, 20 years younger than myself of 40 years! We lasted for 8 years, but his family broke us up; which was devastating to me. I still carry his picture with me in my wallet. We were so happy together. I never had another love after him. I'm in my mid 70's now...and I'll never regret loving him.

I love the results from studies they included. Study showing that relationships where the woman is older are more satisfying for both on all levels! That 80% of women are open to dating 10 years younger and 90% of men are open to dating 10 years older. ❤

6 years ain't an age gap. That's pretty normal.

My gf is 18 years older than me and she is the best girl ever🥰 there is no one else like her she makes me smile every day make me happy everyday and she is😍😍😍😍😍😍

I love how they are calling this a trend. Women been doing this. We just are less afraid now. We’ve been watching men do it in excess for years. Not only that. Finding a decent human at any age is a task. It’s hard out here for all of us.

*_It's NOT some new Trend. It's life._* That's the way it's always been. _Younger Men dating/married to Older Women_ OR Younger Women dating/married to Older men. There's Nothing new under the Sun with that.

My new bae is 24 n I’m 43 n it’s amazing n he’s more emotionally mature then a lot of men my age.. he’s the sweetest man I’ve ever met.. there haters when they judge 😂

It's not a trend it's just a thing that happens. I like someone who's 15 yrs older than me and i can't help that i just do.

I'm 32 years old woman with a stable career. I noticed I am having a difficult time dating men around my age. The men my age are not interested (many prefer younger) and younger men go out of their way to pursue me. Yes, it took me a year used to the idea to date younger men. What is happening?

In all honesty, no matter what you do, people are gonna judge you. As long as it's ethically and morally okay, then there's really nothing that can be said, even though people are gonna do so anyway, and if you live by the judgment of everyone, you will never have a life. There's nothing wrong in and of itself with being concerned with what people think of you, but you can't let it rule you, either.

I would never judge these women. I think they’re awesome. Love should not have boundaries.

It’s not creepy when older women date youner guys, but it’s creepy when older men date younger women.

I am 76 years old. My husband is 7.5 years younger. We have been married 43 years and have 2 wonderful daughters ages 42 and 36. He brought maturity, family values and respect for my independence and liberal views versus his conservative ideals. Since we always respectively listened to each other, we have enlighten each other which is so refreshing and strengthening.

This is old news and shouldn’t even be a ‘thing’. My grandpa was eight years younger than my grandma and he was born in 1912!!! So glad to read the comments that most people don’t consider 5 to 10 years to even be a noteworthy gap! Couldn’t agree more!

I am a 39 years old man, since I have memory I always liked older woman. I had the longest crush on one of my mother's friend but obviously I never said anything, I was a kid anyway. I did marry someone younger than me and that ended bad unfortunately. Although I am not a spring chicken anymore, I still date women for 30 to 50 years old. We do get the wtf looks all the time because I look younger than my age, people think I'm 33 years old, I got those genes from my mom. I really don't care! Older women are always drama free.

I'm 30 and my current GF is 55. Younger women have disgusting levels of entitlement.

Women have to stop shaming and start supporting other women. How can we expect men to respect us when we don't respect each other!!!! I applaud these women. Love and happiness know no bounds!

My husband is 15 years younger and we are super happy and well matched!

Let’s be real, the pressure of getting married and having children is definitely lower when the younger man dates an older woman. I think that plays a significant role.

I think Maria is getting some good pointers for her own life! Do it Maria!!

My soon to be wife is 52 I'm 38 she's the best thing that's ever happened to me . She's an amazing woman and beautiful in every way

Married to a lovely man 20 years younger than me for 18 years...

What’s up with all the comments regarding money and how those younger guys are broke probably. That’s the main problem with older men, they think money can fix everything and they can buy woman’s love. Maybe some women like that but most women prefer good communication, emotional and mental support to money. Besides, who says that the younger guy won’t be successful later on. Let people live their life the way it feels right for them.

Why are people thinking its a trend?? This is just normal it happens. You guys act like it's new.

My Darling Guy is 20 years younger. We have been together for 9 years. I taught him to cook, ski and snowboard, I have never been happier. When we attended the Opera he wept which I found endearing. We met after he crashed into my vehicle. Carter sent me a rose bush to express his regret that he damaged my vehicle. The universe rewards the Brave. Australia

All these women are financially secure and physically attractive. That is 85% of it. Not the age difference. And the guys are emotionally together eniugh to support an older woman' s needs.

I’m a 64 year old girl and my man is 53….. we have never had a conversation about age. He’s my ‘soulmate on steroids’ …. We are so compatible and peaceful together.

My deepest & most meaningful connection was with a man 20 years younger than me. He is very well educated, responsible and accomplished as a US Army ranger officer. We met in 2016 soon after he returned from Europe and his willingness to communicate was refreshing after a 30 yr marriage with an evasive man who ended up shutting down completely. He moved out of state to begin his LE career and at that time my 1st grandchild was due and I did not want to move away, even though he wanted to marry. We've promised to be in each other's lives forever and still keep in touch and visit about every 2 years. It's not the age gap that matters, it's the vulnerability younger men do not fear which attracts women who may happen to be older. For the man, it's our confidence and the fact most of us don't engage in drama.

I'm 38 dating a woman 48 best decision I've ever made, couldn't be happier ❤

Been with my woman for four years. I’m 27 she’s turning 33. I love it. Best relationship I’ve had. I’ve tried dating one year up and down but never worked out

My boyfriend is 15 years younger... We are together for 3 years now. Our love is still going strong. You never known what the future holds. There is couples same age or were the women is younger getting separated. We should live in the present enjoying the today and now at least that's what I do.

I’m seeing more friends doing this. I need to make peace with it for myself. There is something to be said about the emotional intelligence of younger generations.

Im also older than my husband by 9 yrs we've been together 13 yrs and works for us He is a old soul and I'm young at heart ❤

The black couple look the same age 🤣 black don’t crack the woman looks amazing

My husband of 8 years thought I was 25. I was 36 and he was 24. ❤

I seem attracted to older woman as they are a lot more respectful, loving and caring. They are angels

Not all men want children

Finally a show being done on this subject! I date older women and I'm unashamed and unapologetic about it. I wish we moved away from superficial things like age, when chemistry doesn't discriminate against those things.

When I was 19 I dated a 38 year old women and it was great. I really enjoyed spending time with her and she told me that she used to think that she wasn’t fun anymore but she could’ve fooled me man lol

Happiness is the main thing. Age is just a number. Goodluck .

Everybody overlook the fact that women generally live longer than men, 7 years on average.

I am 39 years old and my last girlfriend was 50! I don’t feel more attraction to a young girl! Mature woman drive me crazy!

“A lot of the judgements actually come from women.” EXACTLY! I hear the most bs from women that say it’s creepy. Oh well. Then don’t date younger 🙄

My husband at 65 is 9.9 years younger than I am. Have never been so happy. Neither one of us. We're perfect for and with one another.

My brother's girlfriend is 13 years older than he is and they have been together for over 27 years!

Wow! 💕Older women and younger men couples report the highest level of satisfaction of any kind of couple. Feeling even better about my boyfriend that’s 11 years younger than me. Been dealing with family shaming me for it.

i have a friend who started out dating someone his age (mid 30s both). But seeing that she was "sleeping " around too much, he decided to date the mom (20 years older). Today he brought the mom over to the states as his official gf.

When I met the man of my life he said I was too young for him. I was a 33 yo widow and he was 38 newly divorced. I fell for him right away first time in my life I didnt have to grow to love a partner. He fell at once for me. I had doubts first his divorce was final the night we met so he hadnt been single long. I had been widowed a year and a half and had recovered. Then I was mother of an 8 yo daughter...I needed to be sure he was up for her...she was my main responsibility. He said he had always dated older women, he liked woman about 5 yrs older than him...his first girlfriend had been older so it was a familiar pattern for him. We laugh about it now but he was dating three other women when we met...he didnt move in for a year, though he broke up with them soon after we met..we both really did know each other was the one, but we wanted to protect ourselves, each of us...together 40 yrs and still crazy about each other

If you lived in S Ca and NYC in 70s "the trend" was already in motion.

It’s not like we choose them it’s just a vibe ❤ when you know you know..

As a 28 year old single man I was always liked by older women my whole life and it still goes on til this day

Why are so many people butthurt, if it works, then it works. More power to them. Hope more women whom are older and have financial stability go for younger men

I was single with no children in my thirty’s I’m now married and he’s a “little” over 10 years younger for 10 yrs now and we have a child. The only time I’ve ever been pregnant was with him. Oh yeh I’ve never went after a you get man he asked me out first. His mom was concerned she went out of her way to meet me. lol She loves me now!

Great story! The younger men get it, that it’s about emotional support…not just financial fixation.

I’m 8.5 yrs old than my boo. I do happen to look young for my age (I have a baby face, good genes, and I take good care of myself), and people often think he’s 2-3 yrs older than me. Neither of us ever think about it really. We’re good for one another and are super compatible in all the important ways. That’s all that matters.

I was worried about my honey being 2 years younger than me and these women are living their best lives with their younger beaus. I love to see it!

Younger generations of men are becoming more emotionally stable. Like when one woman said the men their ages weren’t really into an opinionated, confident, self sufficient woman. The younger generations aren’t threatened by women who are like that. I think that’s great!

Right now I’m 39 yrs I’m talking to two different men. One is 29 and the other is 55. Time will tell which one I connect with

It's never an issue when an older man marries a younger woman 30 to 40 years younger than him, but when Demi Moore, who was only 15 years older than Ashton Kutcher, married him, the press crucified her about the age difference.

my husband is much younger! It works been together about 10 years!

Someone thought I was 22 today and I’m 36. I’ve take care of myself and focused on education, adventures and memories. The last person I was seeing is 28 and they had an emotional intelligence and level of empathy men my age or older lack. It’s not just a reproductive thing either when it comes to the satisfaction older women find with younger men and vis versa...I spoke with a successful businesswoman today who runs a Canada-wide company. She had her first child at 36 and her next at 39. My brother has dated almost older women exclusively because he says they understand what gratitude is. The societal judgements are simply not true. We choose our lives and deserve to do so, and those who tell you otherwise haven’t done enough homework or therapy. Take choice away and see what happens.

I'm so glad I found this post! First time dating a younger man and I've never been so happy and fulfilled. The transparency and true intimacy out weights the age gap, but i can't help but think when I'm 60 and he's 54, might be traded in. 🤔

Yep - the first woman nailed it: Independent person in public but the older generation of men, I've found, want women completely dependent on them (including thoughts & decisions) when not in public so, basically, the preference is only to have the public persona as a ruse. (And don't even get me started on having to listen to their incessant whining and put up with their mood swings and selfishness. I'm not their mom and I'm certainly not their babysitter.)

In her 60’s my mother became a widow and dated for the first time in decades. She consistently dated men as much as 10 years younger. She observed that men don’t wear as well as women. Men don’t live as long as women and their health fails sooner and she didn’t want to become someone’s nurse. I’m now in my 50’s and my ex was 12 years my senior. At this point I wouldn’t even consider dating a man more than 5 years my senior and I’m now open to dating men as much as 10 years younger. What my mother observed years ago is absolutely true. Basically, a woman of 50 is often health-wise where a man of 40 is, and a woman of 60 is often health-wise where a man of 50 is. Health and vitality are real considerations once you get to middle age and.
