Hmmmmm. I am younger than that and 30 is the age of my daughter's BF. Although he is great, I couldn't imagine - I think with a 20 year younger guy, we could relate on superficial things - common interests, etc, but on a well...higher plain, I guess you would say, I'd think he would need to experience a lot more of life that only time develops to get to the point where I could connect. I guess I think of it in terms of intimacy...Sure maybe physical intimacy, but I couldn't see the connection for total intimacy. I could imagine some temporay happiness/satisfaction, but not as a long term thing. Does that make any sense?
By the way - I am certainly generalizing - I am sure there are exceptions. And I would generalize the same way with older man, significantly younger woman.

Would I feel the same if it was 45 and 65? I don't think so. There comes a point where there's some leveling off of maturity, IMO...I just don't think one is there at 30
