A friend of mine asked me this question and of course I am not the best to answer this so I thought maybe my good friends on mylot have an opinion on this..
For example the man is 25 and the lady is 50 ..or the man is 50 and the lady 25..What is your opinion of age when people are beginning to feel attraction to one another..Is it important or not at all???

well my opinion is that if the people truely love each other and there is no alternitive motive in the relationship (like gold diggers) then I am all for it as long as they are both above the legal age. My reason for this is because my step dad is 21 years older then my mom and they have been together 25 years. Yes my step dad is old enough to be my grandfather, but he raised me since i was 2 and he makes my happy, so I have never had any objections to age.

Great answer..my mom is older then my step-dad ..and she is probably 10 years older and my dad was probably 20 years older then my mom..I don't think age matters either if both are consenting mature adults;)+

I think my father was 20 or so years older than my mom; I don't know...I, myself, don't think age should matter..but since I am not on the list of those who date or have dated..I am not a good source for answers on this one; thus, why I have asked here...Thanks for your answer;)+

Age does not matter. I was dating a 19 year old. lol he didn't act 19 and I pushed him away many times, but eventually I saw how much we shared. We were great together. He was very romantic and did things to make me happy. Like writing poems and bringing me flowers. It was the best time i ever had. I think as long as you have things in common and you get along well, then age should not matter. Its whats in your heart.

If he was 19..how old were you at the time; you never mentioned..or is this wrong to ask? Was he older then you ?younger?
