FMF, my wife's favorite thing to remind me of is that she was eight years old when I graduated from high school...always a big hit, that one By the time she got into college, I had already graduated three times and was going for a forth...slight generation-type gap there. But, she keeps me young most of the time...or reminds me how old I truly am compared to her.

ooh that's another part to add on. How big is too big an age difference in a relationship and does it matter if it's older guy younger woman or older woman younger guy?
I think love has no age limit, but there are moments when the age difference may cross not only generally accepted society lines, but moral lines as well.

FMF: I am surrounded by cowboys. or Wal-Mart cowboys in the very least. The only problem with that is that I'm truly a city girl at heart. I ride english, and it is worlds away from western. And I HATE country music and wranglers (complete turn-off) and boots. I'm open to a cowboy who will wear levi's though.

How big an age difference is too big? Well obviously if it crosses legal lines. I suppose it depends a lot on the individuals involved. I personally wouldn't go more than 7 years younger than me. That is even pushing it. Seven years older than me seems ancient. I always choke when someone mentions their 40+ year old friend they'd like to set me up with. I always ask what type of person he is, because if he lives young, it might not be too bad. There's a guy at my barn right now that is probably interested in me, but he's like 47...on top of the other creepiness that is him, there is just no way.

Morning all.

RUGBUG- My intentions are this: I wish for a woman to have her own time and own things to do. I really do not require much upkeep at all. In fact, I prefer a woman that needs time. I too lead a very involved life filled with work and family obligations. The things I like to do with my spare time don't always involve womenfolk. I'm just saying that when all is said and done, when its time to be with one another, I ask for that to be our time.If a woman told me that I couldn't spend time with my ponies, (Truck and Rez' Rod)I'd be plenty pissed. I agree that an SO cannot be the sole source of happiness for anyone. Everyone must have their own thing. Otherwise they end up lonely and broke and stuck with an SO that expects too much. Besides, how many women out there would really go bounce around in the desert mountains for three to five days looking at the sights with no shower in the near future. Or sit at the range in 105 degree heat sighting rifles or running drills. I've met a few, but most of them were related to me. I need to get out more!

TRISTAN- Always had a huge soft spot for the war horses of old. There is a family up the road from here who've bred Belgians for years. Magnificent animals. Our area is famous for the mustang. Small but not useless. Though, I would not subject such a small creature to burden themselves with much more than my pack gear.

MSG- Enjoying all the DP goodness? Naughty teacher lady Who has a problem with the age thing? (raises hand) Alot of the guys my age in the immediate area are always chasing High School girls. How F'd up is that? Wish I could help people make more posative choices in their lives. Maybe a mandatory sterilization campaign for disagreeable people? Oh hell, glad I brought my knife!
Now that I look at it, I don't require a whole lot of attention. I think a hug and a kiss from time to time might do me some good. Sorry if I offended anyone.

Thank for the comments. I was stuck at work last night until 11:00 and started talking out my ass at about 9:00. Just got a sudden boost of aggression and... I'll shut up now

you never need to shut up NV. I think you do just fine:) I do however wish you'd stop saying things that make you sound like my perfect guy... You like guns, horses, Firefly, independent smart women, and you're smart and cute...WOW if I weren't taken...I'd be in a car on the way to Nevada right this very second!!!!

Must communicate my fondness for women who'd been cut. I absolutely love tattoos. Not big on the piercings, but some do seem to be placed well. I really hate the dumb little girls running around showing their ink and holes. So many of the girls in this town are so unhappy with themselves that they altered something and end up unhappy with what they'd done. The guy who does my work( John @ Outsiders 775 980 7699) is a true artist that really talks through a piece rather than just selling crap or running a boutique like so many others. I must say that heartfelt, significant pieces always flow very well on a womans body.

MSG, Did you say bullet bike?

I'm a little slow. Please forgive the off topic posting. I just really like ink.

yeah I did say bullet bike:) and may I also say esspresso lip gloss!! just picked it up while I was out;)For me a tattoo is meant to be symbolic to represent an ideal or have special meaning. That's why I'm getting a serenity tattoo to celebrate my 33rd birthday and all the great changes I have made in my life:) I personally like a tattoo or so on a guy/girl as long as it's tasteful and easy to cover in situations where tattoos are less appropriate:)

Thanks for the welcome, everyone!

And yes, the boobs are a little unwieldy, lol. The important thing to remember about bra sizes though, is that it's determined by the difference in inches. Double-F just means that I have a 10 inch difference between my ribcage and my bust measurement. My ribcage is 27" and my bust is 37", so while the difference is rather large, the final measurement isn't all that big. I can usually buy tshirts off the rack no problem. It's just things like swimsuits and dresses, which have to fit elsewhere, that are the problem. And having a bra that fits correctly has done wonders for my clothes fitting correctly, not to mention easing the back pain, lol.

I have thought about a reduction, and will probably have one in 10 years or so. Right now I have a lot of other health issues that are preventing me from having any surgery that isn't absolutely necessary. Someday though. :P

As far as age difference goes, I tend to think the older you get the less it matters. My hubby is 8 years older than me, and while that seemed like almost too big of an age difference when we started dating, it only ever comes up now when old songs come on the radio, lol. My grandfather's wife is 12 years younger than him, but once you're both in retirement, I don't think anyone notices, lol. Actually, now that I think about it, the vast majority of my family have married someone a few years older or younger than them. Even my brother who is getting married in August is marrying an older woman, hehe.
