Love is blind, and there’s no contrary theory which can subdue the existence of this centuries old adage. Every girl has this fantasy of dating an older man. Scientifically girls are much mature than the guys of their own age group, this is the reason why girls look for older men as a partner. But sailing an old ship is not as easy as they show it in the movies. If you’re a 20 something and dating a man in his 30s or 40s, there might be some problem that you can face.
1. Different Interests
Sometimes, your choices won’t intersect at a single point. While he might be wanting to relax in his bed on the weekends, you’ll be willing to go out for a getaway. Such are the differences that can occur if there’s way too much age gap between you two.

2. The Society Will Call You Names
They will call your partner your ‘Daddy’. They can also land up in a misbelief that you were not able to find a man of your age that’s why you settled for an old man.

3. People Will Ask You Questions
Wherever you go people will ask you “Is he your brother?” or “Is he your daddy?”. Such type of question will embarrass you. But it will embarrass him more than you.

4. He Will Be More Demanding in Bed
You will be much fast forward in technology and trends than him, but he will be more demanding in bed. He will be willing to try different things while you won’t be ready.

5. You’ll Never Blend Up with His Friends and Vice Versa
His friends will definitely be of his age. You’ll go through a tough time adjusting with his friends. Sometimes you won’t be able to get any common topic to talk about with his friends.

6. He Might Not Be Able to Understand Your Problems
He won’t understand why you have mood swings too often and on the other hand, you’ll never be able to understand his problems. He is more experienced than you, sometimes he might overlook your problems thinking of them as trivial.

7. He Will Act Like Your Parent
He will be extremely caring and overprotective. You might feel pissed off and suffocated by this behaviour of his. He will often give you lectures about what you should be doing and what not.

8. He Will Start Feeling Distant
When you’ll be busy hanging out with friends of your own age, he will feel detached. He will be hesitant to join you and your company. You will go pretty well with people of your age which can also make him a bit jealous.

9. You’ll Face Compatibility Issues
When you’ll be 45 he’ll be 55. And when he’ll be ready for bearing kids, you won’t be. And when you’ll come to that stage, he’ll be too old. This can create compatibility issues between you two.

10. Your Music Choices Are Poles Apart
While he would be willing to listen to classical music you would like to listen to rap. This might create a headache when you’ll fight over your music choices.
