Is she HOT..... or NOT?

[Ghost in the Machine]

Ok, so this is the girl I'm dating right now... she's 24 (20 years younger than me :evilgrin: ) .... should I keep her around for a while?





PEACE!

Ghost

1. Quite an age difference...

She's cute yeah...she does know your real age, right?

Is this just some fling or do you plan on a future with her?

[Ghost in the Machine]

4. Age has always just been a number to me...

I was with a woman for 3 years that was 13 years older than me... the only thing that matters is: do you have things in common? Do you actually like being around each other? Do you have fun together and enjoy things? Personally, I don't care if you look like Julia Roberts or Roseanne Barr, if you don't like each other, you just don't like each other.... or if you do, you do...

Yes, she knows my real age. As far as a future, it's still too early to tell... only time will know that answer.

[CrazyForKucinich]

23. Good way to live your life...

Glad you're happy.

[Joey Liberal]

11. Very hot

Me likey!

[hijinx87]

2. totally hot.

I would keep her. ;)

[Ghost in the Machine]

5. Thanks!

:hi: .... yeah, I think I'll let her hang around as long as she wants to....

[hijinx87]

8. not a problem.

the truth shall get us off, er, ah, free. ;)

[SPKrazy]

3. You Are My Hero!

as a 45 year old

there is hope!

[Ghost in the Machine]

6. There's *always* hope!

You just have to look in the right places sometimes.... or just be in the right place at the right time....

:hi:

Ghost

[SPKrazy]

7. Yup!

and good luck to you my friend

she's a hawtie!

[elocs]

32. You are my hero too! I am 54, so a 34 will do. Where are the right places?

Just think, when you are 100 years old, she will be 80.

[deucemagnet]

9. HOT! HOT! HOT!

If I had a high five smiley, I'd post it right now. :thumbsup:

[hijinx87]

10. what have you done with olivias 1-3? n/t

[Ghost in the Machine]

12. hey, practice makes perfect! ROFL!

Actually, it's a walk through symbolism....

what is says is Olivia for love and friendship

The red and yellow roses stand for love and friendship

Ghost

[hijinx87]

14. "love and friendship" must be lower down.

mega-;)

[Ghost in the Machine]

17. This also proves that the Universe has bee wrong all along....

Heaven is not out in space... it's below the Aztec Sun... :evilgrin:

[hijinx87]

18. it's below something, to be sure.

:)

[Blue_Tires]

13. i'm down with that.....

[mdmc]

15. yuck, shes a smoker

we is liberal here. :)

Good for you bro - shes a hottie

[mdmc]

16. ps-

I always thought you were some teenie bopper - your mad immature for your age - :yourock:

[Ghost in the Machine]

19. A teeny bopper? Thanks! .... I think....

I'm just a big overgrown kid. I run my business very seriously, as I do with raising my kids, so I balance the rest of my world out by being a goofball. It's much more fun that being an old stick in the mud. If you don't balance it out, the stress will eat you up and kill you...

[mdmc]

20. actually, I confused you with Jefferson's Ghost

He posts all these lyric photo threads (like Pink Floyd's The Wall).

I am currently hangin with my landlord, who is about 20 years older then me. I have many older political friends. My girl-i-o is 7 years younger then me.

Peace to you.

[crim son]

21. She's totally hot, yes.

And being so young, she must be really super in every other respect as well! :eyes:

(disgruntled older woman here. you know, we can't fucking help it)

[Ghost in the Machine]

24. Why be disgruntled?

In all honesty, my experiences with women my age haven't gone too well... most of them have kids that are already grown and gone, and they're looking to cut loose and enjoy life without being tied down to kids... they run like hell when they find out I have a 13 y/o & 14 y/o that I've been raising alone for over 10 years now...

Know many women my age that wants another "ready made family"?

I don't either......

PEACE!

Ghost

[crim son]

25. I'm not criticizing you.

I'm criticizing the aging process and life in general. Peace to you too, my man. :hi:

[Little Wing]

22. She's hot, yes. But I think she's looking for some extreme living

and you'd better be able to live up to it if you want her to be your long-lasting girlfriend.

You gotta get freaky with this one, it's what she's looking for.

[Ghost in the Machine]

27. Extreme living? I can handle that...

actually, that's one of the things we have in common.. we've already been through the "extreme" lifestyles and are looking for that calm harbor away from the storm...

But extreme? Been there, done that. I'm a product of the "Cocaine Cowboy" days of the early 80's in Miami. Lived the lifestyle very hardcore. Wanna discuss living with 3 strippers and having a $1000 a day cocaine habit? Been there and done that too. I've been clean now for almost 15 years. These kids today don't have a clue as to what extreme or hardcore is.

Looking back, I'll take the calm harbor any day.

Peace!

[bicentennial_baby]

26. Is she ok with you

posting her pic on the Internets to have random others judge whether or not she is "hot", and whether you should "keep her around for awhile"??

:puke:

[Ghost in the Machine]

28. yes she is....

if you hadn't noticed by the picture, she's quite the exhibitionist.

I must say, I'm a little taken aback by your response with the sarcastic tone and the puke icon... this coming from someone who posted about becoming engaged to another couple? Yes, I read a lot of posts that I don't respond to, but honestly, I thought it was pretty cool for you guys. Do your liberal views and lifestyle count only for yourself?

:hi:

Ghost

[idgiehkt]

34. she's talking about consent

and I thought the same thing, 'does this woman know her image is a) splashed all over the internet, and b) that a potential S.O. is asking strangers to rate her physicality and help him/her then decide whether the girl is a 'keeper' based solely on above. I've seen a lot of twisted shit in the lounge, but this is, like bi-baby said, :puke:

[Zuiderelle]

48. I agree. Everything about this OP made me cringe.

I wonder how she would react to having that pic posted here, when on the same day her new boyfriend posted a pic of himself and another woman, with the phrase "One of my Ladyfriends"...

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=6057062&mesg_id=6057066

I think that the woman in the picture in the OP should be asking the question "should I keep him."

To Ghost, I believe that the :puke: was a comment on your objectifying language.

[bicentennial_baby]

60. whew! glad i'm not the only one!

and here, i thought it was just me... :)

:hi:

[Yavin4]

29. No. Her Age Is The Problem. She's too old.

I'm just keeeding.

Stock up on the viagra.

[mentalsolstice]

30. You're soooooo in trouble! n/t

[Oeditpus Rex]

31. Why do you need our approval?

You're apparently quite pleased with your achievement.

[FedUpWithIt All]

38. ...

:applause:

Nicely said.

[leftofthedial]

33. be sure you have viagra

and aspirin and a home defibrilator on hand

[SKKY]

35. I'd hit it.

[FedUpWithIt All]

41. How incredibly charming. Oh, Congrats on your new baby girl. n/t

[SammyWinstonJack]

52. !!

:spray:

[pokerfan]

36. It's just like my uncle used to say...

You are only as old as the woman you feel...

or something like that.

[Kickin_Donkey]

37. Not ...

Hey, you asked. I'm just stating my solicited opinion.

Not my cup of tea. She could use some braces.

But if you're happy, cool.

[MonkeyFunk]

39. She's lovely

Audrey Hepburn had the same navel tat.

[FedUpWithIt All]

40. I say, do the girl a favor and let her find someone who cares enough about her

to determine on his own (rather than asking a group of message board posters) whether or not to "keep" her. :eyes: You asked.

[Ghost in the Machine]

42. I guess I should have used the sarcasm tag when I asked that...

judging by a couple of the responses here, but I didn't think it was actually necessary. I've been proven wrong and I stand corrected. We were just a little bit and having a little fun. Maybe I should have done it on myspace instead. Or maybe I shouldn't post while under the influence....

Just for the record, women are not pieces of property that one can just choose to "keep", anyways.

:hi:

Ghost

[kay1864]

FYI...

You were the one who used "keep" (in the OP), not FedUp. She was just quoting you.

:hi:

[FedUpWithIt All]

58. No , women are not property....

yet many of us have been treated like we were just that. Not many women make it very long without being treated like an object. It often isn't until a little later in life that the real harm from it begins to show on us. When we are left for a "newer model" as if we were as easily replaceable as an old car, when having children destroys the perceived worthiness of our (rated) form, when we are too tired (often from caring for those dependant on us)to maintain a life of carefree abandon...it becomes all to clear just how much of an object many of us were treated as. If it was just you and her having a bit of fun, so be it, although i suspect at some point your new girlfriend will understand, very clearly, EXACTLY what i am saying. It's all fun and games until...

[mogster]

43. Hot as hell

Good luck to ya, lol ;-)

[BreweryYardRat]

44. *wolf-whistle* Good on ya, man!

Quit gloating and get back in the sack! :evilgrin:

[LaurenG]

45. Have a wonderful time together

Age is only a number! She looks great!

[bertha katzenengel]

46. Oh, this is bullshit.

I can't believe anyone would post something like this.

And if you had her consent, which I hope you did, I feel sorry for her. I hope she grows up.

And, if this is a joke, well then. Ha. Ha. :eyes:

[La Lioness Priyanka]

51. seconded. and thirded.

[L A Woman]

64. and fourthed...n/t

[XNASA]

47. Judging from her ensemble, she must be.

Looks like must be about 90 degrees outside. Or perhaps it the corona tattoo encircling her navel that makes one jump to the conclusion, "Hot!".

:eyes:

[La Lioness Priyanka]

49. is she ok with you posting her pics here?

[mainegreen]

50. Do I sense a flame war a coming?

[Bunny]

53. When I think of people who date others who are a generation younger

than them, I think they do so because they are unable to form appropriate attachments to those in their own age group. IOW, they look for someone young enough to be manipulated, and can be relied on to go along with whatever the older, "wiser" partner wants. It's less stressful than having to negotiate the ins and outs of a relationship with a fully grown person who is an equal in all ways.

But that's just me.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

54. .....

[hippywife]

55. Exactly what I was thinking, Bunny.

You said it very well. I was in her position once, dating a man much older than me, which led to years of misery being manipulated.

Dude, let her grow up without your help. Throw her back, she's too young.

[kay1864]

56. It's just me, but I think that's silly

The woman is *24*, for crissakes. In your mind that is "young enough to be manipulated" and not a "fully grown person".

Huh?

[speedoo]

57. To the extent you are generalizing about that kind of relationship...

I would suggest that, like most generalizations, it's not very useful.

I'm not defending the OP here, in fact I am in agreement with the criticisms, but such generalizations really contribute nothing, IMHO.

[L A Woman]

67. i agree wholeheartedly, although...

i think it's clear that she is the intellectual superior here. i doubt SHE is posting HIS picture on an internet message board, bragging like a child on a playground that she is dating her dad's peer.

poor kid.

[terrya]

59. She did give you permission to post that picture, right?

In this context? To essentially a group of strangers?

[bmbmd]

61. Men like women. Boys like girls.

Men who like girls-are still boys. Just sayin'.

[Burma Jones]

62. Don't know......most of sex occurs from the neck up and a photo doesn't tell whether one is hot

Although she looks good and would certainly be appropriate for visual stimulation......

I can see by the cross around her neck that she is a nice God-fearin' Christian girl

[slj0101]

63. She should wear a coat. She looks a bit chilly.

[XNASA]

66. Agreed.

But why do I suddenly feel like playing a game of Ringtoss?

[LSK]

65. I dont know, do you have anything in common?

:shrug:

[Call Me Wesley]

68. Locking.

Getting pretty flamey in here ...
