Mastering The Second Half

Why Do People LOOK DOWN On AGE-GAP Romances? Can They Work?


Listen Later

How young is too young when you're of a certain age and looking for "Mr/Mrs. Right"?  Aren't Age-Gap Relationships supposed to be really, really bad?

Whether you're considering an age-gap romance yourself, or just mocking one from afar, we usually have a pretty negative opinion of the union.  "What can't he/she just date someone their own age?", we hurl into the void.  So, are we jealous?  Or are we correct in assuming it's a bad idea?

Let's find out ...

The Big Question:
In my future relationship with another, is it necessary to stay within a certain age boundary?  How can/should I deal with that gap, handle society's assumptions/expectations, and will it work out?

At some point, we’re all going to get to that point where we say “How the hell did I get to be this age?”. It’s even worse when that number flips to starting with a six. But this isn’t a time for decline, absolutely not. It’s time to live! 

Mastering The Second Half is all about the joy of life after a certain age.  There is so much in store for all of us, from renewed relationships, to travel and adventure, to life changes, and even to exploring the differences between the sexes as we move into our better years.
