\"Why <\/i><\/p>\n

\u201cYou have a 10-year age difference? Your relationship won\u2019t last.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019ll see, in a few years, you won\u2019t have the same priorities.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t believe in your relationship for one second.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

You may have heard these comments before if your significant other is older than you. However, according to Emma Hathorn, a dating expert working for seeking.com, you shouldn’t listen to these stereotypes.<\/p>\n

For Hathorn, having an age difference in a relationship can actually be a very good thing<\/strong>. And some of our favorite celebrity couples are living proof: Dua Lipa and Romain Gavras, Heidi Klum<\/a> and Tom Kaulitz, Virginie Effira and Niels Schneider, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, George and Amal Clooney. All of these “couple goals” are comprised of one person dating someone older!<\/p>\n

According to the dating expert, older people have more experience<\/strong> and maturity<\/strong>. \u201cIt can lead to better communication, better problem-solving skills and a more stable relationship,\u201d<\/i>\u00a0she explains. And in regards to stability, \u201cIt can bring a feeling of security and comfort to the relationship.\u201d<\/i>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We are always learning from our partner<\/h2>\n

Someone older can also bring us wisdom<\/a> and advice. They have different views on life and inherently will know some things better than those who are younger.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey can advise on a lot of different areas of life and comprehend complex and stressful situations. This can be particularly useful and calming in difficult situations,\u201d<\/i>\u00a0assures Hathorn.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t forget generation difference plays an essential role in cultural improvement<\/strong>.\u00a0\u201cDating an older person can be the chance to learn from each other (music, cinema, etc.). Sometimes, they can teach you how to enjoy life\u2019s beautiful sides, and help you discover a hobby you never would have imagined you would enjoy, like sailing, golfing, fine dining or going to the opera.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

Finally, relationships<\/a> with an age difference tend to last longer<\/strong> because both parties know what they want and what to expect from the future. These relationships tend to want a more peaceful life and \u201care less susceptible to engage in toxic relationships or create drama.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

So, if you are still hesitating about dating someone with an age gap, we’re happy to tell you that the experts support it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":42690,"featured_media":81009,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[6939,38,16],"yoast_head":"\nHere's Why Going Out With Someone Older is a Good Idea<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"In a relationship, age can be an obstacle.
