Woman wants to date me but her age is 27 and I'm 61. She is a nurse at a health clinic. She does have 4 children she said.
What do you think about a big gap in age when comes in dating.

I thought you already had a girlfriend ?

Now it's more of a friend because she wants to move in with her sister in another state. Her sister wants to take care of her many health problems she has.

oh well you're a free man to do as you wish now... . Age gap is one thing..such a big age gap rarely works, but I would be more especially wary of anyone that young with 4 kids... .

I need a break from her everyday bi-polar problem. Now this lady nurse is telling me she well take care of me. I don't really need four children to deal with either.

Well there's probably no harm in going on a couple of dates if that's what you wish, but I would be concerned that a 27 year old with 4 kids is looking for a sugar Daddy...

I would think that also.

I think she like me because I never been married and have no children. She said her past marriage was real bad. She has long blonde hair that is 3 foot long and has big blue eyes.
I will listen too everyone on here about her wanting a sugar Daddy. She only knows me for two days and told me she love's me. I would think it's hard for a woman with four kids to find another man to marry?

Be careful Robert, be very careful. She has known you for 48 hours and she loves you? She is up to something, count on it.

It's slang. for a person, esp a woman, who is considered to be emotionally unstable and likely to be dangerously vengeful.
The term originated from a scene in the 1987 film Fatal Attraction where a scorned woman (played by Glenn Close), seeking revenge on her ex-lover (played by Michael Douglas), places his family's beloved pet rabbit in a pot of boiling water when he is away from the house.

yes it generally means someone who comes onto you too strong and too fast, and usually once you get involved with them, they take everything from you including your friends.. and make your life a misery, unless you concentrate only on them
Super mega red flag. Seniors already have a lot of body aches, you might be in for a heartache.
If you're the type of person who falls in love fast, don't even date her cos she will tell you what you want to hear.
If you can keep your feelings in check, go ahead and date her. You got yourself a free nurse.
My gut feel tho is don't pursue it.

lol...a Free nurse with 4 kids to look after...perhaps she's looking for a free home, a free babysitter, and a free wallet...

The others are probably right, but it might be fun for a little while... that long blond hair and those blue eyes sound nice.
Just be careful.

...or Robert might be the Harrison Ford of Senior Forums and just a really nice man who doesn't forget what you said a minute after talking to you.

I’ve often heard this said over the years, “IF SOMETHING SEEMS JUST TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, THAT MAY JUST BE THE CASE!” I’ve also heard it said that, “Fools rush in, where angels fear to tread.” I’m not calling you a fool but if in your own heart you aren’t sure, maybe your friends here are giving you sound advice. I can hear what they’re saying and I don’t even have a horse in the race! A fool and his money are soon parted. Again, not meaning you but those sayings stick around for a reason, I’d think.

Yes, but there are also: "Strike while the iron is hot", "Time and tide wait for no man", and "There is no time like the present".
Looking back in life I regret the missed opportunities more than the mistakes I have made.
Just be careful, if you do it go in with eyes wide open. Let us now how it all works out!

Quite true but I stand by my “where angels fear to tread” quote. And isn’t there something about “A true gentleman doesn’t kiss and tell”? So, Robert59, if you’re a true gentleman, keep the details to yourself. Both for yours and the young lady’s sake as well.
Living well causes fewer regrets, IMHO.
If you don't feel old now, you will after you date her. In my forties, I dated a girl in her twenties. Just sitting next to her and comparing the skin on both our arms, I could see the age difference. Look at the skin on your arms.
Also, any increase in blood in the male member comes from the brain.

As a general statement I have no issues with age gaps in rerelationships, no matter the size of the gap. The caveat to that though is that one remain realistic.
The greater likelihood in relationships with very large age gaps, is that the younger person is looking for something other than a love match. It might be security, a roof over their head, financial gain, the wherewithal to get their kids taken care of etc.
As long as that’s known and addressed and measures taken to protect the older person’s assets, and all those cards are on the table, then I see little harm.
Most folks though won’t be that realistic.
