When I was 17 I got my first real girlfriend who was 19 and had her own flat in London where I was studying at a crammer away from home. I moved in with her and did some growing up being around her friends who included a few older than her who had already graduated from university and were working. They were nice to me even though I was a long haired kid to them. Then I went to university myself and broke up with her and got  a gf my own age. Now my wife is 25 years younger. Theres a lot to said for an older gf when you are a teenager but do you want a 95 year old wife when you are 70?

How old were you when you married your wife?

 

65 and 40 is one thing while 45 and 20 is another, don't you think?

I was seventeen and she was thirty one.................................what a great song, gives me a boner!

[jerrymahoney]

My wife is older than my girlfriend.

[Peterphuket]

I missing one choice more: Who is older 1. Wy wife, 2. GF, 3. Or i self, because I still married with my wife, and have a girlfriend....nothing special now this days, I think so.

[Grumpy one]

When I was 21 it was a very good year.

My gf was 42 and hot and wealthy

I enjoyed the good times, new car plenty of cash.

Then the cow went back to her husband 

Never again will I go with an older woman

One pensioner to a house is plenty

Depends on her money.....or do you think your 25 years younger gf likes your wrinkles or fat belly or bald head??? ????????????

[bignok]

Dated 16 years older and 15 years younger. Nice standard deviation.

My gf is 30 years less.  That is my breakoff, 30 years or more younger then me.

If I want a fat, wrinkled old lady I would have stayed home.

Now she has a fat wrinkled old man

[Jelli]

Is this even a serious question?

 

Married half plus seven. Fifteen years younger. I wish she was still 33 but real connection is going to be within 20 years. Older than that and I don't think the person can be trusted with the burden if being married to a person so many years older.

 

What 60yo cuck would move her and get a 60yo bird as a gf lol??

[swm59nj]

I had two relationships with Thai women while living in Bangkok.  No not at the same time. 
Both younger than me.  One was an account 47 years old.  The other 44 years selling products in a mall for a major company. 
But from their behavior at times.  How they reacted to certain things.  And their temper tantrums.  Very immature like ten year olds. After a while I said forget it.

generally young Thai women are extremely annoying and they seem to not mature until well into their 30s.

No that's when the panic sets in if they don't have a man providing them with security

Same age spread with #2, going strong for 17+ yrs.  She was 29, me 51.

Around where I live and it's not a big place there's about 25 guys seperated from their gf/wives.  To be honest most of them would argue with their own shadow and appear to me as they would be impossible to live with. Ages vary but most of the women involved in these relationships would be 40 to 50 and the men around 60. However I have a couple of other friends still with their wives and they are around 70 and the wife not yet 40 and they seem very happy....never see one without the other.

 

If the question is have rellationships between a couple withan age difference of 20 or even 30 years more likely to fail I would have to say no. As long as their are no finacial problems and they guy has a good heart and has grown out of his Peter Pan trousers they are very likely to survive.

 When you were 17 you thought a 19 year old was an older woman, so later on you left her for someone of your own age? LOL

 

Your question: "do you want a 95 year old wife when you are 70?" That's not likely to happen, but the question should be: does your wife want a 55 year old husband when she's 30 or a 65 year old husband when she is 40? Apart from possible financial benefits the answer is "no thanks".

 

I hate the break the news, but it's unlikely a female 25 years younger than you is attracted to you for your looks or vitality. Get real - you're buying a younger partner. If you start quite young with a big age gap, you'll find the gap widens as you age.

All, most of couples I know, 15 ish, most age gaps were 20 yrs or more,  and think they're all still together with 2 exception.  Most fairly happy.  None with financial problems, and some actually a bit flush.

Maybe it's the same couple walking past you many times? 

Poll results so far:

 

12/72 or 16.67% are older woman, younger man couples.

 

Not the majority, but it's more common than what some of the posters here would expect!

Wow - thanks for passing that along... certainly not what I would have expected... I do know of a Thai/Thai but not a farang/Thai relationship like that...

Well thats the crux. A lot of delusion goes on the mega age different couples.

 

I'm 65, my wife 59.

 

I still think she's pretty darn sexy, but she certainly isn't to a 30 yo guy.

 

Same with me, I think I'm damn hot, but the idea that a woman 30 years my junior finds me 'hot' versus guys her own age is again delusional,

 

So many farang guys in Thailand concoct the myth that somehow biology doesn't exist when it comes to 'their' relationship, it's Thailand, it's somehow different.

 

Wake Up, smell the roses

[Jelli]

Before I was married all my gf were sane age or younger in states. As far as casual fling I was always just chasing a pretty face I really didn't care the age but obviously preference toward the younger.

 

I get you're married and both are 60. I don't get your gf and partner is 60. That's a psychological issue. Why you'd be attracted to a granny quite literally. Mommy issues. Worse still maybe supporting the dodger or at least halvsies with Mr Nomoneyme.

 

No doubt she's got kids that prolly hate the punter as well.

 

But she has an ???? education! Lol, from a Thai university ????

[Dmaxdan]

My wife is 3 years older than me.

56 and 59.

 

Back in the 1990s living in the UK I had a year long fling with a Thai woman who was 11 years older than me. I was 29 and she was 40.

At the time I'd been trying (and failing) to date an older woman for years. It was very much a bucket list moment.

 

[spidermike007]

Of course my woman is younger. Why would anyone be with a woman their age, or a woman who is older than them, if they really had a choice? Nearly every friend I have in the US is single. Why? Because for a man in the US, who is past the age of 50, unless he is willing to get with a woman at least his age, or older, his prospects are dim for finding love, or companionship.

 

Some guys like me, simply prefer younger women. Not kids, but women who are 5, 10, 15, even 20 or 25 years younger than us. For a dozen very valid reasons. I could break them down, but why bother? The PC crew will jump on this and say it is not right. You should not be able to have this kind of life, without jumping over ridiculous hurdles! Means nothing to me. I do not do PC. Why be with a woman our age, if we do not need to? Nothing wrong with it, if it works for you. But It is virtually impossible for a 60 year old man in the US, to hook up with a 36 year old woman, unless she is very fat or very ugly, or he is a centi millionaire, or is famous. Period. It just does not happen in this day and age.

Here it is possible. Granted he will likely get with a woman of lesser means, who needs a guy who can provide some financial stability. So what? Who cares? Most women want financial stability anywhere in the world, whether they admit it or not. The difference is here the women are more honest about their financial needs and desires. I know a lot of men who have engaged in relationships with lovely, kind, supportive, humorous, and sexy women here, who are no longer lonely. We have very good lives. Fulfilling lives. Lives we could never dream of having back in the US, Oz, NZ, UK, Canada, or Scandinavia.

I am older than my mother-in-law.
