age difference

I'm about to turn 29 and do prefer younger women but typically only a few years younger. My most recent ex was 23 when we broke up, mainly because she was still in the party every night phase of life. So I've been looking for some one older/more mature. I met this new girl and found out a lot about her before I bothered to ask her age. She already has two career type jobs and is ambition and driven. She's definitely not the party type. We've been talking and hanging out for about a month and she's great. The thing is she just turned 19! I'm looking for something serious and so is she. Question is has any one experienced such an age difference? Do you think it's destined to fail? Before you ask no pictures.

You're a month into a relationship with a 19 year old girl. I wouldn't be worrying about serious long-term prospects yet. Just roll with it and see how things progress naturally. But at the end of the day, you're dating a teenager, and people are bound to change. So even if things were perfect right now, I'm not sure the person you are dating will be the same when she is 25 even. So take it slow, get to know her better, and enjoy the ride.

10 years isn't a big deal but you have to remember she is 19.  She has no idea what she wants right now.  I think it's much less likely to work than a 39 year old dating a 29 year old.  With that said I would just have fun but I wouldn't get too attached.

Meh... prefer older.

I wouldn't say it's destined to fail, but people I know in such relationships do not see eye to eye most of the time.

  

I'm happily married. I'm 28 and wife is 39.

 

If it works it works.

Wife 1: 2 years junior.

Wife 2: 3 years junior.

Wife 3: 4 years older.

Wife 4: 7 years junior

Wife 5 (current): 11 years junior

 

And every one of them was duly compensated and I carried no financial baggage into my current and final marriage.

  

Me: 46

Girlfriend: 37

 

It's not just the number of years though.  Gotta say there's a bigger difference between a 19 year old and a 29 year old than there is between a 20 year old and a 40 year old.

Nothing wrong with dating 19 year olds....nothing!

You keep getting older and they stay the same age!

      Strength of Schedule for 2025

      By countryboi · Posted

      The thing I hate about strength of schedule is that NFL teams change so much over a year and past success or failure doesn't really dictate future success or failure

      Considering you previously struggled to understand BTT despite it being explained in a video, write-up, and multiple replies, I get why this might be a little too complex for you. Happy to clarify again! Just let me know which part tripped you up this time. 😉

      a look at our 19 udfas

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      And, honestly, there's only so much you can attempt to do in the draft. And every draft pick is a roll of the dice. But that's where grabbing a ton of UDFAs, and targeting the best, makes a big difference. Sure, their individual chances of getting a hit here is less, but that shotgun pattern might just hit something.  Right now, we need bulk, partly to rebuild and partly to dilute the deep level of stank that has developed on this team in the last six years. If we're going to rebuild a culture built around culture, accountability and winning, then these UDFAs we bring in each season have to be the wash water that gets out that leftover dirt.  Canales seems to be a smart, culture-first, build up the good ones kind of guy. I like that and I hope he can keep it going here. But he was working against a locker room that had been taught to lose and taught to distrust or ignore coaches. He's got his work cut out for him, still. He does seem to have it moving in the right direction and that's something I was pretty amazed with by the end of last season.
