Thoughts about Older guys

Would you guys date a older guy? I really want to see this guy that is 15+ years and I was just wondering what you guys think. Also he is a OBGYN what do you guys think about dating someone that does that as a living?

I have dated three guys that were 20 years older than me and I can say two out of the three were wonderful. The third was controlling and abusive.

The only reason neither of them lasted was because I kept going back to my husband.

It can work! Good Luck!!

Oh yeah and as far as the OBGYN is concerned hey he will know your body better than you so maybe that will bring great things for you in bed...... ;-)

Older man (15 yr. older than woman) with much, much younger woman, either he is imature or looking for a trophy. Profession shouldn't matter unless he is unemployed :) Judy

Most older men want to date younger women, because it makes them feel younger.   luck  jo

Sweetie a man in his 40's can be all about sex as well.  I don't think age matters all that much as long as you and him have great chemistry and he is respectful.  Depending on how mature you are and what you are looking for in a relationship.  He himself may be getting out of a bad relationship/marriage and isn't looking for anything serious as well.  I think if you are looking for something serious and so is he and you won't regret settling down so early in life, then go ahead.  OBGYN is a profession and it shouldn't be an issue.

Although I think 15 yrs. is a hugh age difference, I did it...I mean, I was the older woman and the maturity difference was hugh. Great sex....still imature and it didn't work out.  He has a respectable profession, which many women would be proud to have a professional man, BUT 15 yrs. is hugh.  Judy

In my oppinion.....and this is just my oppinion....Guys our age....Are only out for one thing.....Sex!  They don't want relationships, or anything that comes with them.  I find the older men more mature and more willing to settle down, they've lived thier lives got their partying overwith and are willing to be mature about a realtionship.  I don't see anything wrong with dating older men....They're more secure to me...But that's just me...My boyfriend is older than me, and before i met him i was dating guys my own age and the difference is amazing...I'm much more happy where iam in my life....But ultimately the decision is your own...If you think he's right for you and you guys have a shot then why not try it??  If it doesn't work out at least you could say you tried.  If you don't try you will always be wondering what if???  

I hope everything works out for you :)
Good luck

As for the OBGYN thing, personally i think it' s a respectable job that he's worked towards so there should be nothing you should worry about :)

To me that's too old.  You should date around and get to know guys your own age.  Those that have more in common with you.  But ultimately it's your choice.  Like I said earlier, it's just my opinion.  Good luck!

The older you are the less age matters.  If you're in your early 20s I would say that (for me personally) 15+ years is too old.  You are fresh out of college and he is established in a career and there really isn't much you have in common.  But if you have been out of college awhile and have experienced life on your own then age doesn't make much difference.  As for him being an OBGYN.....that wouldn't bother me.  It's an honest living and as long as he's professional than it shouldn't make a difference what he does.
