I think its great if you either of you have no problem with each others age. As long as you really love each other there will be no big problems.

The 8 yrs isn't really the problem. The problem is that he really hasn't reached maturity in a sense. Until you are on your own for a while, such as being 25 or so - there are a lot of things you don't learn. You may end up being more of a mom to him than you want. I'm not being rude, I'm living it. My husband was 23, I was 27. I took care of things because I knew how. So, there are many things that he never learned because he didn't have to. Bill paying, etc. 25 years later it is still the same and now it drives me crazy. I thought he would learn as we went along but he didn't have to so he didn't. Give him time to learn things on his own before marriage.

It's not a bad thing! But look at what you did at age 21? I just think the 21 yr. old has some catching up to do. It might be fine now but in the long run I think you are both at two different levels of maturity right now. You're probably established in your career and he might not be.

No it sounds fine to me. If he is mature and so are you, your ages shouldn't be a determining factor. As long as he treats you well and you enjoy each other and treat each other with respect, it's all good. It's only 8 yrs. and 8 yrs between consenting adults should not be a problem. Good luck and YOU GO GIRL!

So what about the age. When it comes down to it the age doesn't matter. It is the love that you have for each other. I know cause my husband is 10 years older then me. We have been married six years.

hi I even have been in relationships myself that have comparable constructive factors to this, and that i somewhat think of you would be happier without him. and that i think of you already understand this. It looks like he's enjoying you, telling lies approximately how lots he's "with" his ex-spouse. And assembly you in basic terms in out-of-the way places is hurtful & does not sound very trouble-free. rather at your age, you may desire to and would discover somebody with whom you may somewhat be a pair and who can, and has time/area, to make you happy. while i became into your age (i'm 36) i'd've been aggravated if somebody reported as me youthful, yet i'm in basic terms asserting - now I even have an 8 3 hundred and sixty 5 days previous baby & won't be able to get out lots to fulfill human beings. while i became into 21 i became into in basic terms such as you - and made many errors, which deliver me to the place i'm at present, older and wiser, yet with fewer ideas. do no longer become me! Please examine some books like "women persons adult men adore and by no ability choose to go away", which will motivate you to love your self from interior of & entice somebody who will love you and who merits you. And maximum of all, you deserve extra relaxing than waiting around to work out some guy who does not handle you properly & who looks to have long gone off you besides (and that i think of you have long gone off him too!) good success Emily, uk x

Hope not. Thats the difference in me and my hubbys age. Been married 35 years. I was 18, he was 26 when we married. An older, mature guy is good for a marriage. Helps you get settled easier. Good luck. m.

If you love and understand each other then I say go for it. Forget what people say, they can be cruel sometimes. As long as you both are comfortable with the age difference it doesn't matter what people think. Your relationship is 'you' and 'your man', the both of you decide get to decide on what you want it to be. In fact, I'm going to wish you both the best of luck! You go girl!

Age makes no difference .. he knows how old you are and he likes being wth you. you say you both love each other so what are you worried about.? don't worry about what other people say just go and live your life and the two of you be happy..and him being mature is a really good thing..just be happy.

true, if you love each other age is not an issue. i have been with guys a lot younger than me, but i have found that in the long run they are not mature enough to have a stable relationship with. they are still young and have not experienced what you have yet and are still hanging on to thier teenage years in thier early twenties. so have fun with your guy, but don't expect to have a real serious relationship.
