Relationships with a large age gap seem to have become commonplace. Although we probably hear such relationships every day, something still impresses us about these romances. 6 men have actually told "Cosmopolitan" their stories with women older than themselves. Read their stories below:

I got tired of mom's jokes

"I was in a relationship with a wonderful woman who was twice my age. I was 25 and she was 50. She had a terrible life, an abusive marriage, had 3 grown children, two were older than me and they treated her so badly. We created a life together, founded a successful business, bought two 2 houses, 3 luxury cars and a yacht. So we had a good life, but I wasn't happy. Age is not just a number, it shows many differences between the couple. I got tired of mom's jokes and went completely crazy when her kids visited her because they were so mean to her. Sexually we were great at first, but things changed over time when she went through menopause. She was no longer interested in sex and I was only 30 years old. We started sleeping apart as she had back pain. I cared for him a lot, but after 13 years together I told him we had to go our separate ways. It was the hardest decision I've ever made. It was completely destroyed. Age matters a lot. Do not start a relationship with a woman older than you if you are not sure about your feelings for her”, a boy confesses.

Sex with him is amazing

"My girlfriend is older than me. The main differences between us are finances and careers. She has a successful career while I don't. The first thing I noticed about her is that: my partner, who is 9 years older than me, knows what I want in bed. It just pleases me. The downside of being in a relationship with her is that she has done a lot of things in life and expects me to be on her level. It's so frustrating", - another confession.

I have more experience than her

" My wife is 10 years older than me. We have been together for 14 years. Surprisingly, she is more naïve and I have had more life experiences than her. We have a wonderful marriage" , says a happy man.

There is never any drama

" I am 21 years old, while the woman I am dating is 25 years older than me. We have been together since I was 18 and I intend to propose next year. We never argue or fight. She doesn't get jealous and trusts me. She is discreet and does not make dramatic scenes. Unfortunately, my parents don't agree with my decision, and they don't talk to me. Her family is wonderful. She has older children than me. It was a little strange to meet them at first, but now I feel like family. Sexually there are no limits. We have so much fun that we can have sex 10 times a week", - confesses a boy in love.

We were not happy in bed

" We stayed together for 5 years and she was 15 years older than me. She had self-esteem issues and this was not allowing our relationship to work. Then, even in bed, I was never satisfied and that's how I ended that relationship", - another confession.  

When I thought about it longer, I parted

" I was in a relationship with a woman 12 years older than me. Our relationship lasted 2 years. I was 26 and she was 38 when we met. It was great because I really loved her and she really loved me. However, it didn't work on the road. After 10 years she would be 48 and I would be 36 and I would be all the time "criticizing" her to behave like a young girl. If I was 42 and she was 48 it wouldn't be a big difference. 4-7 years is an acceptable difference in my opinion. But as much as we had, I could not continue it any further", - another boy confesses.
