What could the possible drawbacks be of dating a man 15 years older? I could potentially be entering into a relationship with a man 15 years older than me. I''m in my mid twenties. I''ve always connected better with people a good 10-15 years older than myself. My concerns lie in the fact that this man has had two previous marriages, an adopted daughter and just recently a very uncertain and unstable lifestyle. I''ve also never had a ''successful'' relationship and none for more than a couple months. Both of my previous relationships were entirely meaningless and disconnected. I ended them both.
There is something about this man that I''m unusually attracted to (unlike any previous relationships) though it''s clouded by my anxieties around relationships, his age, his past and his possible motives. I cannot even tell if I like him or not, though I definitely feel more for him than I ever had for a man (probably has to do with his apparent openness and intellectual maturity). I''m generally quite an isolated individual and it worries me that I''ve become too comfortable to be in a relationship - not even sure what I could be avoiding. I don''t want a relationship if I''m going to run a month into it.
Some insight please!
