age difference

This kind of age differences we already see since ages. So I wonder why you come up with this and find it strange. Does it matter to you? To me it is not at all. Each person should do what is best for him/her and live his/her own life. We all are different, we all have other things to learn/do in our lives. I don't agree with you it's in the human nature to ask questions or get curious. That is something you learned later in your life. What we see is what we find normal. And if we all would grow up in a society like that we would never ask ourselves if it's normal or not.

Hi swissheart, age is definetely give effect on relationship. Since relationship is about communication and the age difference will influence communication whether smooth or boring..Maybe if the older partner able to adapt and learn much about what the younger really like then its gonna be easier. But you know, it's not that simple..If I saw too much gap couples, it's just like father and daughter..It becomes worse if they have a child, maybe the child will have low confident level compare with the child on their age..

I don't think that age matters in relationships within reason though. In your scenario with one person being 20 and the other person being 50 that is too large of an age difference in my opinion. I guess my question would be why is she with him and my assumption would be money.

Well, i think that age is not so important for lovers in a relationship, maybe a difference of about 30 years starts to be too much. The importance is that both have reach age maturity. Some problems may arise if a child born and father or mother is too much old to raise him !

I think the difference of age is not the important think in a relation.. I'v married with the man which is 9 years older than me. But I feel so happy, and there's no problem on it.. We just need to understand the habit each other.. But in this case, if the difference is more than 30 years, I think there's something wrong with it.. I'm not speak about them, but their children in the future.. So maybe we have to think twice if we wanna have a relationship with the difference till 30 years..

I guess it's not issue. It can of course catch our attention, we all are curious. But as I see it, age issue is like religion or nationality issue too. People give a look or raise eyebrows when they see "odd" couple. It's not other people's business but as you said it's just human nature. Women easily fall in love (sometimes), if you give them real love, they wont care if your rich or not, young or old, black or white. =)

i don't think there is anything wrong with a small age difference, but that is too far. my husband is only a year older than me. i think the age difference should only go up to maybe 5 years. after that it is too much. i am only 20 years old, so in that particular situation i would be freaked out because i could not see myself with somebody 30 years older than me. but oddly enough my own parents were almost 3o years apart...

I am with an older man, and the age difference has never been a problem to us, we've always got on extremely well. However, if we were younger, then it would have been more of an issue as we would both have been at different stages in our lives and wanting different things from them. At the moment though I don't think that there's anything wrong with it as long as the two of you are both happy and in addition to this you have to be able to agree what you want from your relationship so that one of you doesn't get hurt in the future.

It doesn't really matter though...as long as it really is love and not just money. Even my wife and I, I am older than her by more than 5 years. But when it become 30 or 40 years age gap, it is hard fr me to believe that they really fell in love since they may not have anything in common.

I believe it is the two of them who know why they got into each other. Reasons could either be love, which is the best reason to have a relationship. Maybe they are plainly in love, as simple as that. It could also be that the girl found a fatherly figure that she finds a sense of security being with the older man. There could be other reasons too but whatever those are, I really don't mind as long as they are not bothering me in any way. It is their life and their choice. I would just set aside the curiosity in me. I will just wish them well and hope they last long or forever.

hello, Oh? Many people judge those couple and I know how hard it was though I am not experiencing it. But for me? Age doesnt really matter if you love one person but if you only love him/her just for fame or money that is not an excuse. Well, I heard that people nowadays want to married old and rich guy for money. We dont know the reason of those couple so lets not judge them.

I don't know. I think I respect them for having a relationship like that, I would respect their choice. But for me, I am ok with dating who is 10 years older than me but not more than that.

In a relationship, i think age is not a problem. During the mutual love, mutual understanding, and can known advantage and disadvantage of each, i think all will be fine.

Age does not matter in a relationship. It's the intention of the person that matters. Just as long as both persons love each other dearly, then it's okay. For me, it doesn't really matter at all.

You see if a younger girl is willingly enters into a relationship with an older guy (in this case guy would be her father's age) it is her choice. If the older guy is able to influence the younger girl that they could enter into a relationship, then others can not point any fingers towards them.
