Can age difference be a factor in the success/failure of an LTR

Age doesn't matter in the end

You just always have to be rising in smv in some way, education, job, lifting.

You become stagnant you lose respect

You could definitely date a 23 yo and it could work you just have to be alpha. I mean you've had 34ish years of experience, even if half or more of it was in a fairytale.

I'm 30 and my LTR over a year and half was 20-21.

It can obviously be rocky, but tbh our break up had nothing to do with age.

Women under 22 are still in college mode. They act really weird. Women 22-26 are still growing up. They act a little weird. This is especially true if they went to grad school and are still students at 26 instead of paying rent. Women over 26 are all the same (bump that forward a few years if they went to grad school). At that point, it doesn't matter if you're 40 dating a 26 year old or 40 dating a 46 year old. They're all pretty much the same.

Generally speaking, women who prefer older men want a guy who can provide steady leadership and who isn't going to fly off the handle, get jealous or otherwise act immature. They also trend submissive.

Date who you want. Last LTR was 21 when we met. Now I ONLY plate or possibly LTR 18-20. It will likely go down as I get older. I always stick with younger because they're going to get ruined anyway....may as well be by you.

Different strokes for different folks.

Stage of life not age can matter. 9 years is a lot between a 16 year old and a 25 year old but nothing between a 25 year old and a 34 year old.

Plus you will get a lot of societal disapproval with the former but nobody will bat an eyelid with the latter.

Think you're making something out of nothing with Your circumstance.

Half age plus 7 years is a good guide if age issues matter to you personally.

It can but this is troubling,

Am 34 myself and my last Ltr was 25. It didn't work out, it just made me think I don't want to date women in that age range again.

Sounds like you want to stay blue pill.
