Long story short, have a date lined up tomorrow with a good looking gal, 5'8", great butt/legs, not a liberal, smart, etc. She really is excited to go on a motorcycle ride tomorrow, seems like a genuinely good person.

She's 3 years older than me. I normally would never consider dating a chick older than me but I'm making an exception here.

I'm asking GD for advice, am I just thinking with my little head here or is this considered normal these days?

If you consider 3 years older, what are you, like 12?

Are you 27 and she is 30? Or are you 48 and she is 51? Either way I'm not sure that three years makes a big difference.

3yrs is nothing unless you are in high-school. Then its awesome! ( I would assume )

Wouldnt bother me a bit if she met my criteria for personality and I was attracted to her. Dont over think it.

Three years isn't too bad.  Especially as an adult.

My wife is 4 years younger than I. Real differences are music references from teen years and such. But 25 years into our marriage its not something I notice.

Older is definitely the wrong way, unless you're like 18... but for the right woman I could make an exception.

Kinda worthless thread without pics to judge.

My wife of 30 years is three years older.  Not an issue.

Historically, i’ve dated older women since high school—they tend to be less drama oriented & like sex.

When I was 16, people/women thought I was like 25.  When I tried dating my age & younger women, some clicked, some didn’t.  It’s part of life.

That’s my experience.

Man a 3 year age gap is not a big deal.
UNLESS, she's like 35 and wants a kid very soon (or will, after she get comfortable and starts nesting, trusts you, and all that other good stuff) and you're 32.

And that's not a bad thing, I'm just saying - if she's in a spot where some things in life need to happen pretty quick, keep that in the back of your mind.

If you like the idea, hey go for it.

If you're thinking you don't want to have kids and start a family very soon? And she does?
Tell the truth, do what's right, let her go get someone who does.

If you're say, 27 and she's 30? or 28/31? Depending on where you are in the country, this is about the age block where people are on their second child, she's been to a few weddings at this point,etc.  She miiiiiiight want things to move a smidge faster than you might want them to

Overall? Not so bad. Get to know the lady in front of you, ask her questions, find out who she is, what she's like, what she wants out of life. Might work out nicely!

I never understood why people get so caught up in age differences
When I was 20 and even now at 40, age is irrelevant to me in any relationship
I’m more concerned with who you are than anything

I started dating 18 year old girls when I was 16 because it's legal to buy beer at 18 and I didn't have to worry about a father getting mad because I got his daughter drunk.
There were a bunch of other plusses involved as well.

No shit. Three years? That’s nothing. Met my wife when I was 26 and she had just turned 33. That was a great time.
Still having a fun time at 39 and 45.

Never go older.

Never under 18 though.

Not in my experience.  At 18 I was dating a 25yo.  There was too much drama with younger high schoolers, IME.

To be completely honest, I was 17 when the dating started & she was 24….somehow, I survived her molestation and robbery of my youth….
