That rule was probably created by a 44 year old making it ok to date the perpetually 29 year old...
I love how there's a rule of thumb for everything
Guess no one told it to Tom and Katie
I have never quite gotten the attraction of younger men...
Speaking in total generalizations here
the older guys (especially now that I am older) have a certain je ne sais quoi that the 20 somethings don't have... I'm guesing it's quiet confidence without arrogance. Though the problem with many of them, is they want the wrinkle free 20 something type. Older guys seems to have more manners than their younger counterparts do... and well I like that --plus i don't have to explain a lot of 70s and 80s references to them....
Older men/younger women.. Older women/Younger men relationships - -If it makes 'em happy - go for it -but for the long haul, I doubt it will go the distance - 20 somethigns and 40 somethings are generally at different places in their lives, and unless someone is willing to make a huge sacrafice (and why the heck should they) someone is going to be resentful.
