I appreciate all the responses, and I definitely agree that age is a state of mind.
As I read the responses, it is beginning to dawn on me the I am the one who has an issue with the age difference.

Part of the problem is this: Having just ended a long-term relationship, I'm not ready to get back into a serious relationship any time soon, and I have an ethical delimma about possibly misleading someone. Also, there is a big income difference between myself and most people in that age group. I don't know a tactful way of expressing this, but I have witnessed some changes in personality and behavior with a few people who are not at a stage in life where they are financially secure yet. All if these issues just make things more complicated than they should be.

I guess the bottom line is that I don't want to be put in a position where I have to hurt someone emotionally, but I suppose that risk comes with the territory.
