It depends on whether or not the guy is mature enough. My husband is 10 years older than me and we are very happy and have one child and trying for a second. It just depends on the relationship and what he wants for himself in the future. My sister-in-law is about 8 years older than my brother and they seem just fine.
If they are both mature and responsible and have a lot of the same interests, etc. If they both have the same viewpoint on life and what they want out of it. Do both of them agree on the subject of marriage/kids, or staying single?
Also as long as neither one is overly worried about the age differentiation.
If the guy is really young and the woman is not too much older, for a while it can last. Once the guy gets older, often he starts looking for someone else. It's sad but true. Younger men think they are cool to be able to satisfy a woman who's older, but once they get up in age, often, the guy just starts looking for someone closer or younger than his age.
My boyfriend is 23 and I'm 27. I've never dated someone with this type of age difference but we've been together 9 months and I cannot honestly see any problems with it. It was a concern for me before we started dating - not because of him, just the numbers - but has never been since then. I could see that it would be a problem if the two people have different values or are on very different time-lines in terms of wanting a family, kids, etc. Also, I think that the age difference matters more the younger that the youngest person is; the older you get, the less it matters. My friends all love my boyfriend 10 times more than the other guys I've dated, who were mostly 2-4 years older than I. Incidentally, so do I :) Also, the third person who wrote in about being dumped for a younger woman is definitely an unfortunately story, but it didn't necessarily have anything to do with her age. There are a very high percentage of relationships that eventually end, so it's hard to say that it was the woman's age! Exactly what are your ages, by the way? That makes a difference...
If you see age difference or you feel or think 'he is younger than me' all the time, then that relationship is not gonna last for long. cuz the guy is thinking the same 'she is older than me'. do things that both of you will enjoy.
It depends on the age difference (if the person is in their mid teens) and if both individuals are mature enough. My aunt was 15 years older than her husband and married for 48 years until his death. There are many people with a large age gap between them that have long relationships between them. If an individual is only 16 or 17 and is dating someone older than 19 then it's a low percentage that the relationship will last and in some States it's illegal. Answer I agree with the above. It depends on the two individuals and then, of course, all of the other elements that would be involved in they were around the same age, such as compatibility, love for each other, common goals, etc. My grandfather passed away when I was just a baby. My grandmother later married someone 18 years younger than she. They had a wonderful marriage, spoiled each other terribly, and he was a great person and a wonderful addition to our family. They were married for 46 years when he passed away from cancer. My grandmother passed away 10 months after he did. She was lost after his passing and passed away from heart failure. |Their marriage was the kind of marriage I would hope to have no matter what the age or age difference.
ANSWER:In my opinion the reason why younger man goes for an older woman is about being experience in sex, especially if she is married. Second its all about how this older or mature woman will make him feel very special that he doesn't get from a younger woman. Last but not the least its about relationship, if the woman is married, he knows he doesn't need to commit with her, after all she is married.

Yes, it's possible.
Please resubmit your question as it is not clear what your asking. Thank you.
I don't think so
It depends on your age. If your are in high school, the average thing is about roughly 1 year. If you are older the years varies.
It can last. The age difference does make it harder. Keep in mind that woman live on average seven years longer then men
his last relationship was 2 months ago
if you truly believe it will last and are sure he is the one it wll work out
From what you say it seems she's worked out that the relationship won't last much longer.
no his relationship wont last!
