Serious question to middle-aged ladies, would you ever date a younger guy? I have a female colleague that I work with and for some reason despite our age difference ~10 years, we became sort of best friends as we have a lot in common and share the same views about a lot of things.

We kept our relationship strictly professional up until now but I am seriously considering asking her out on a date.
My friends advised against this as she has 2 kids but I think I’m willing to look past that.
Her husband cheated on her but they did not want to get a divorce in order not to affect the kids. I feel happy when I’m with her and I feel that she understands me very well.
I don’t think age and kids should be a barrier. Should I ask her out officially?

Here is what Netizens think:
- As long as she never divorce, you will forever be just a 3rd party. Are you sure you will be okay if her husband is still living with her while you guys date? Also to the kids you will always be seen as the house-wrecker, not the dad, since you are the one openly asking her for dates. All that assuming she has the same feelings for you.
- Personally I won’t. I have dated before and can feel a gap in our thinking and behaviour. I end up with a guy my age.But that’s just me. I think for your case, just leave her alone as she is still married. Unless she decides to divorce and marry you – still unlikely because if she marries you, her ex husband can stop paying alimony.
- Wait until she divorce. If not kena charged for adultery by husband.. No need to pay for the kids.
- The problem isn’t the age barrier. It’s the fact that she’s married with kids bro
