Okay - just curious...

What would be an age difference which you would be comfortable with?

Be it years JUNIOR or SENIOR than that of your partner...

Just curious if divorce had any effect on your age perception... It's
just that some guys (and gals) will go for a younger or ever *much*
younger partner post-divorce...at least that's what I've seen...

Anyone went the other way (i.e went with an older partner)?

Hmmm. Well, my first husband was 11 years older than I was (I was
19 when we met, he was 30.) My husband is 5 years older than I
am (33 when we married, he was 38.) In between, though, now
that I think about it, all but one of the men I dated were all
younger than I was, even if it was just a few months younger.

Huh.

No effect on my age perception. My first wife was 2 years younger than me,
my 2nd wife is 4 years younger. That's virtually the same.

My current wife is 9 yrs. my senior, yet in many ways, she acts
younger than I. Like they say, you're as young as you feel... but
sometimes, you feel damn old. =R=

My ex-husband was 8 yrs & 1 mo older than I.
My current husband is 4 yrs & 5 mo older than I.

The biggest age differences i've ever had with dating was 8 yrs younger and 16
yrs older (the latter when i was a teenager, the devil!).
I usually get along best with people close to my own age though.
