There are lots of movies in which one person is very elder and the other person is very younger. The ending most times is tragedy. In life is it right for a very elder person to love very young person like he is around 40 to 50 and she is around 20 to 25 half his age. Sometimes these films in which the age different melts our hearts. Sometimes we can never understand why one person fell in love even when they know they will never get the other person. What will you do if you fell in love with a person whom you know you will never get like this?

Yes I think it is possible to have have a romantic love between an elderly and a very young person. I don't see it around the area I live in, but I know their have been cases like that. I don't see nothing wrong as long as it is true love. But then again if my son were to marry an elderly when he got old enough, not sure how I would feel. I hope that I can respect his wishes and accept them being in love.

Love knows no age. I've been with guys anywhere from two years younger than me to thirty years older. It's all good.

I also agree love is always blind and has doesnot think about the future. I also had fallen in love with a girl five years elder than me when I was a teenage. Some of my friends had also fallen in love with girls much greater than their age.

My husband and i have a 35 year age difference. You can never usually understand why one fell in love with the other, but what you can understand that they are in love. I love my husband with all my heart, and know that we will be together probably until one of us passes on. We've been together for about 5ish years now, and there have been no problems along the road for us to have to overcome between each other. When i realized that i was in love with my husband, i went with it, because i felt like my heart would be torn out, mulched up and thrown away if i didn't pursue him. I made my decision to be with my husband, age difference or not, and i think, actually i know, that i made the best decision i could have ever made.

Love is blind. Once it hits you smug and square, there is no escape.
