The Big Age Difference

So how many of you all have been in a relationship where there was a major age difference? Was it better if you were younger or older than your partner? My mother always told me to get a man older than me so I could be taken care of, but I was never into older men.

There are many occasions where one would wish they had a young hot tender or maybe an old sugar daddy but living everyday like that... nothing that I would recommend to my worse enemy. You fight about the things the younger man does, the things they older man wears and always how they were raised, be them young or old.

After college I decided to do things a little different and listen to my mom for a change. I met a few older guys in the club and at work and I gave them a second of my time, allowing them to take me out to dinner but it was never more than that because I was simply not interested. I just did it to say I had done it. I hated being seen with an older man because I didn't want to look like I was using them for money or that I was being used for sex. So one date and I was frank about being a single date because I was too busy for a second or simply not being interested. But the thing about older men is... they never stop.

This one guy was so persistent it was disgusting. Sending flowers to my job, meeting me at the nail salon just to see me and even buying my girlfriends and I drinks with a $100 bill and making me keep the change. Come on old guy don't be that desperate. You're just begging to be used and I know a lot of girls who would love a relationship that like but I'm sorry, I'm not one of them. I will take my young hot tender with a minimum wage job and a beat up impala over an old crusty the crab sugar daddy any day.

Hmmm majority of the guys I've dated is older than me but only by a couple of years. Really old men disgust me. I already look super young and I think there nasty so I dont even go out with them. I started dating someone that was 10 years older than me but I thought he was around my age cause he was like 3 years older than me. But we actually have alot in common and i like him. I never really date anyone younger than me.

I always felt creepy when I was out with older guys. Like it looks like I'm with my dad. I SO AGREE about their persistence. I had a guy I used to work with that would NOT stop pursuing me. He was almost 50 when I was 25(older than my parents!) He would always through his fancy car or trips I could be going on in my face. I just left him to the gold diggers around the office who were more than happy to take his attention away from me!I think I choose younger guys because even though they can work your nerve like a child, they are fun!

Idk about that sissy pooh. My first actual boyfriend was my highschool crush and he was a senior and I a junior, he was a few months older. I then there was my second who was a year and one month and then jumped to 3 years and now I am with the love of my life and father of my child who is 8 years older then me...even thought he soooo doesn't look it! ;) He is one of the greatest, strongest, loving, most family oriented men I know and I when I'm with him the age thing isn't a factor, it never even comes up.

With younger boys/men would talk to me they ONLY want sex or just the rights to my pretty little face and I wasnt going. Back then boys were immature and even now at the age of 22 I would never date anyone my age or younger because men still treat me the same.

Different stokes for different folks.

Tunnel Vision

Last week a fellow journalist died in a car accident. A lot of people at my job knew him as a kid from SIUC who died in that terrible accident the other day but I actually knew that kid, Ryan Rendleman. I went to school with him, I worked with him at the school newspaper and most times I talked about him on the phone with my girlfriend because that Rendleman was truly a trip.  His passing made me realize how quickly our lives can be taken away from us and how I really haven't done much to contribute to society, or to my obituary if I were to die today.  When I hear about someone my age or younger being pregnant, getting married or doing something that I would consider a grown up act, I gawk at how advanced they are, in a negative way, when I should really be getting just like them because life is so short!  I am in my early 20's, just graduated from college, have never lived out of Illinois, have never smoked, don't have any tattoos, interesting piercings or children.  This...

No turning back now

This one friend of mine is in some deep shit. 1. He's in jail. 2. He's in jail because he was speeding on a stolen motorcycle. 3. His mother is a laywer and she is so pissed at him that she won't get him out. 4.5.6.7.8... 9. He is a pretty boy Kappa, which has turned him into a womanizer. But the number one reason why he is in some deep shit is because 10. He gave his main girlfriend the passcodes to his voicemail, email and facebook. Ok let me break down that last sentence. He gave his main girlfriend the passcodes to his voicemail , email and facebook . Isn't that against the player handbook? If you have a main girl that means you have other girls... so why? The passcode to your voicemail... the voicemail that all the girls are leaving messages on because they heard you were in jail. The passcode to your facebook... the place where you do ALL of your dirt. I mean come on, how stupid can one man be? His excuse was that he didn't have anything to hide from her and ...

A side of Baby Mama, hold the drama

Just a few years ago, I would cringe at the term "baby mama," Today, I embrace it. It is what it is and I am who I am.  You have to live your life and roll with the punches. I never thought I'd be a baby mama. I'm more of the wife, fiance, girlfriend type. Or so I thought. Life is just not the fairy tale you dream it to be when you are eight years old in your big cousin's tiara and your mother's high heels. I wish I could go back. I would say "self," my self would say "huh." And then I would lay it on thick... "Little Aerial, these boys only want one thing and one thing only. Your heart! So they can break it." Can I get an Amen? "Protect yourself little Aerial. Protect your cookies. Protect your heart. Or else be the best baby mama you can humanly be, like me." I love my baby. Love her to the death. Do you hear me? I am with her every single day! She needs for nothing. And once she start to talk, she wi...
