work out better if the female is older or the male.I think it might be better if its the male older as its the ladies who have the babies and need to be the primary carers.Unless you find a young man who doesnt want kids and is happy to be a part of yours.Anyone living in a particular relationship and hows it going?

hey i like this topic! In relationsip we must have give and take. thats y GOD create us, male and female to complete each others. there is no problem if female or male older than his/her partner as long as we can manage and keep our relationship good and happy be together. but for me,its better to have bf or husband that older than female. because, male can show their mature in age 40. can u imagine if we (female) 10 years older than your partner??? it might be a problem during your relationship unless both of u happy being together

erm.. last time i keep seaching for my mr right. infact i have a boyfriend that treat me so nice and he is a caring person. but i'm still not satisfied on what i have. i like to have bf older than me. they are more mature and usually a good listener. i 'm happy when he can give me good advice when i really2 need a help. but finally i found that my journey on searching mr right are not so good. i;ve got fight with my bf and he said i'm just playing with his heart. but, finally i realise that he is my true love.. Right now i become more appreciate this relationship and my bf cuz he love me so much!

I think if you are very young, it makes a difference, but as you get older, it doesn't make a difference, as you are both mature and have the same thoughts.

thats so true hairbear,its a matter of you both being at the same stage of maturity,not age.

It's never too much when you truly love each other. I'm in that kind of relationship and although it seems everyone who knows it has a problem with it, I don't have.

I'm glad to hear that you are listening to your heart and not everyone around you.

Ten years gap is not too much in a relationship. It works either ways also, whether the man is older or the woman. However, I think it's better for the man to be older. I personally prefer onlder men.

I have a female friend who is presently in love with her bf 8 years younger than she is. They've been together for two months and I can see that she's much happier with a younger guy.

My bf is 4 years younger to me and i am beginning to feel the age difference. He is in his early 20s and sometimes i find the way he acts just too immature. I dont know about kids and all coz we are still too young for that.

I am 55 years young and my partner is 29 years old, yet the age gap means nothing to us. We have been together three years now and still as happy as ever

that is great to hear cause I'm thinking I may be too old to think someone I know may ever be interested in me,he is 30 and I'm 41.We get along fine and we are good friends but that is all .
