It might work for some but I would never date anyone with such a huge age difference.

My brother dated a girl he was 42 and she was 16), Not sure if they are still together as I haven't seen them for years ( My abuser)

Anyway I kind of think why so young? Maybe if she was in her early 20's would it be different, I don't think so, She will be about 23 now and he 49 if still together, Still wrong, I think it is reputation.
