I'm going out with the 25 yo Friday night

I met him while I was out last Friday night.  He texted me Sunday and I ignored him, but then he texted me again last night.  He's nice and I did enjoy talking to him, so I figured why the hell not.

I'll be 30 in June and I totally feel like a cougar, lol.

The day I left was just my beginning.

Re: I'm going out with the 25 yo Friday night

  • If it makes you feel any better I'm 37 and went out with a 27 year old.
  • Whatever, I was dating a 27 year old for awhile I'm 33. I think it bothered me more than him.
  • i was 37 and dating a 24 yr old.  ok well not really dating more like FWB but it was fun!
  • LOl I'm 34 for a few more months and have been going out with a 26 year old.

    I'd always dated men a little older than me until lately...

    Lately it seems like the men left in their mid-30's are tired and whiny.

  • I'm 41 and my last boyfriend was 34. Last summer, I hooked up with a 25-year-old. Yeah, I like them young.Wink
  • Ehhh, I say go for it!  I have been out with several younger men (I'm also turning 30 in June and have dated 25 YOs).  I did find the ones I went out with to be pretty immature but I know that there are definitely exceptions and I think it's worth a shot!

  • U go girl...Im currently 46 & seeing a 36 yr old man....Its more fun than the older men Stick out tongue 
  • The last time I dated a 25 year old was when I was 19.  I'm 27 and would be apprehensive about going out with a 25yo, I prefer older men!

     

    Have fun!

  • There's only a 5 year age distance so go out and party it up! I can't lie though, dating someone younger weirds me out a little too even though it shouldn't matter.
  • I am 37 and my favorite boyfriend post divorce was a 25 year old!  We dated on and off for 4 months (no committments or anything), but we did spend a lot of time together.  He was awesome and gorgeous!!  We are still friends, but I started dating someone else exclusively so didn;t want to still hang out with the 25 year old.

    25 to 30 isn't that bad, 25 to 37 is pretty bad!  LOL

  • I ignored my current bf when he first tried talking to me too. At the time, he was 28 and I was 42. I was annoyed that this little kid had some bizarre fascination with me. Little did I know. Now I'm about to turn 45, and we've been living together over a year! I am the only one with the age issue - it still bothers me. But it doesn't seem to bother him at all. He's the sweet love of my life, and if you didn't know our actual ages, you might not think we were different from any other committed couple out there. 

    So have fun and keep an open mind!
