just curious, what is the age difference between you and Mr L?
my last three serious boyfs were all significantly older... 15 to 19 years older. none of them worked out, but that had far more to do with my penchant for choosing mentally unstable guys with apparent personality disorders.
the biggest obstacle for me personally was not having stuff in common, but being at different stages of life. like wanting to settle down after reaching one's 30s, versus wanting to travel and explore (like me). but that happens in relationships between people of the same age, too. so I figure if you already know you are on a similar path and want the same things from life, there's no reason why you should expect it to fail if everything else is good.
sorry that should read "NOT not having stuff in common"... as in having stuff in common or not was never an issue either way, the whole reason I got together with these older dudes is BECAUSE we had so much in common.
