He's 21, she's 44. Is this a "GO" or "NO GO"?

Update:

It's just for one date, folks, not forever.

    Why forever? If they are both having fun and playing safe, Why not for just a day or a season?

    Not everything has to be forever.

    I think for the 44 year old..she needs a more stable person to be with. For the 21 year old..he needs a stable person BUT not that age! I know Age is just a number, but when a person is much older like that.. there's also lifestyles to worry about,etc. I just don't think it'll work out but you never know. My sister is 34 and her husband is 24. They've been together for almost 10 years.. But she's a pretty immature girl and he's more of a mature guy so they kind of balance each other out in a way. I'd still say NO GO, not due to age per say, but due to lifestyles & health.

    Personally, I would not date someone old enough to be my child. I'm tempted to say No Go, however, age is only a number. If there is common interests, then maybe it is something to pursue. I know a couple in a May/December relationship that married and have kids. They are still married!!!! Everyone thought they would be the first to divorce!!!!

    It can work. I'm 31 years older than my wife. We have been married for 24 1/2 years. Yes, there can be problems with that age difference. It all depends on the people involved.

    It's a go. She could get 2 - 21 year olds and their combined age would still be less than hers. GO FOR IT!

    GO for it! If the situation were reversed where the guy was that much older, people wouldn't think twice about it. It'll be difficult, but it could work out.

    After the initial "rush" wears off he'll ask himself, "What was I thinking?" and drop you like a hot potato. There are plenty of men close to your age who would be interested in you. Be sensible.

    i say no go because of the big age difference! but if they really like eachother then they should go for it cz i mean they could end up together forever! so if they think they have a chance i say watever makes them happy!

    best of luck!
