Do you think its ok for a 19 year old girl to date a 70 year old guy?

but there is a lot of relationships that are similar to this although ok the girl maybe 22 for example. would you think 22 is ok for being with a say.. 65 year old guy?

What do you think the age gap should be within?

Isnt it in Philippines culture to respect an older generation and that age isnt as important in a relationship?

Respecting age is not a culture in the Philippines but rather it's a proper manner and should be done in any country. The same also goes with the saying "age doesn't matter in a relationship". That is my opinion.

But similar situations you can just sit and have a coffee in the mall and you will have a lot of people walk passed in this type of relationship. Although the age gaps differ the gaps are still 30+ years.

My personal view on it is from both sides because ive talked to people from all walks of life from Pinays perspective aswell as the retiree.. Now ive also experienced some of these Retirees that are nothing short of strange. I had the misfortune of meeting a guy while me and my wife were at McDonalds and he was asking all sorts of weird questions. He was busy trying to find a girl who was around 17 - 18 he was supposed to meet as he was looking for a girlfriend. He was around 70. Personally I wouldnt trust him round young kids never mind anyone i knew in theyre mid to late teens. But other retirees are just living out theyre lives and are happily married and although the age gaps are wide theyre partners seem happy.. Do they marry for love? I can honestly say most dont but i do think they love the guy at some point because of the life they have together. Do i agree with it? Simply its not for me to judge. Ive never been in a situation where i dont have enough money to feed my children and if it breaks the cycle of poverty for someone aswell as making an old guy happy who knows..

Its hypothetical.. i see a lot of these relationships and just wondered how its viewed by Pinoys/Pinays because for the majority of the guys involved they see it as normal because although they know in most Western countries its seen as odd.. in the Philippines there is a belief its accepted and normal.

Generally it happens a lot.. the age group may not be as extreme but its pretty close. A lot of the foreigners dont look for a girl over 25. Blessings are important from close relatives your right.. but just wondering how everything is seen by Filipinos as from most foreigners they dont seem to have a problem with that type of relationship.
