i think it's more about the dependent, co-dependent, dominant, relationship. maintaining the sense of the roles between the two of you. i feel that's where daddy attraction is? :police:

@faye6688:

i can accept a man that 20 years older then me

Really? Definitely not for me. It's just easier for me to talk to and get along with an older guy. And usually I find older guys more joyful and happy and less cynic and destroyed by life than I am. Their kind of fresh compared to boring peers who have higher self esteem than a fucking Eiffel Tower. The second thing, I don't know why I'm like this but I feel very old and really seek a serious relationship. Most of the guys around my age don't. I'm not looking for a DADDY. I don't chase after 50 y.o. because that's (in my opinion, according to my taste) disgusting. I like just mature guys, because I like mature, masculine, muscular bodies, that's it. And I don't talk with an older guy like with a parent but as we're equal. My bf was 36 so it was 13 years difference and he accused me of being too serious and left but we acted like peers. The guy I was dating who was 38 actually started calling me like you know "son" and things like that and it kind of I don't know how to describe it. IT WAS SO FUCKING CRINGEY and awkward. I just qui. Then now I met a guy and we're such great friends and lovers and we always have a topic to talk about and we're not lecturing each other, I thought he's like 37 or smth but it turned out he's 44 so 20 years older than me. And you know what? he's awesome.

I think that Love knows nothing of looks or age… both change with time as does the heart.

in a long term relationship, if there is a huge age difference, there may be problems.

There may be problems in any relationship–"long term" or otherwise--regardless of the age difference between the individuals.

…most of the guys seem to be sexually attracted to daddies with hopes they've got that $omething $pecial and don't quite view their romantic-emotional side...

The "Sugar Daddy"/"Sugar Mama" speculation is common in perceptions of younger/older relationships–straight and gay. As I see it, that number is attributed more to the difference in assets over age–yield vs. years.

That “true love”–equal in age or older--can be a “gold-digger” just as much as that young hottie.

As it happens to be in our relationship, there is the age difference, and no doubt a big gap in our “net worth” as well–my “marrying well”--I guess you could say. That’s just how it is.

Believe me, there surely was no inkling that that “nooner” 35 years ago was anything but. (“How long have you and your partner been together?” - https://community.gaytor.rent/index.php?topic=49673.msg269126#msg269126)

Both hot and horny–age and income--definitely not on our minds!  >:D

I've been with my partner for 8 years. We are 30 years apart, I was 18 and he was 48. It works,But a lot of work is always going to be needed for a happy and healthy relationship

Exactly right, every relationship needs a lot of work to be happy and healthy relationship. Me and my partner is 25 years apart and we are celebrating our 17th anniversary

So I was wondering, there are many younger guys I've met that are dying to be in a relationship with an older guy (daddy) and I am one of them, but my question is - are such relationships possible on the long run? I always thought that it's not because most of the guys seem to be sexually attracted to daddies with hopes they've got that $omething $pecial and don't quite view their romantic-emotional side…

Good thought, however, look at it this way:

How many relationships last?
Every relationship has issues that tear it apart; the idea is to find a solution and make it work.

Stop trying to live in another's relationship.

BTW I have had three long relationships with an older man, when I was young (16 years) and two where I am older than my partner (one of 10 and the current of 9 years and counting).

Good luck in your search, it is possible.I had to leave the US in order to find a more permanent one but that is just me.

I doubt any relationship with a major age gap (like more than 7 years or so) would last. You'd start running into the problem of just having different priorities in life which would make it impossible to want to stay together.

Well…you're so wrong…

When we got together in 1982, I was 22--half his age at 44, and we're coming up on 35 years! :cheers:

However, I will admit, anybody else would've "fired" me long before now. >:D I always say, "Anybody could last in a relationship with a Bobby ("CrusaderRab")."

Here's a little history of us in some of my posts…
