I'm starting in a relationship with a guy very, very much younger then me. We chatted online for about 2 years and finally met. It went great. Just how big of an age gap is ok? (Oh, and yes he is legal)

BTW, we're 26 years apart.

THE QUICK ANSWER IS IT DOSENT MATTER. The facts of life are that we all change as we mature. Sure its fun in the beginning, all relationships are. Keep it light and don't lose yourself in the other person to quickly. Keep you own identity and if it can survive a year or more of that then its probably a real love. If not,,,then you probably saved yourself a heartache.

OK... he's legal... in my country you're legal when you're 18. But I think that that's 21 when you're in America (assuming you live in the US.) Well, like Aaliyah sang: "Age ain't nothing but a number." I used to have this policy... I never dated guys my age, only guys that were much older... 4 to 5 years my senior. And well... I have dated guys younger than me. 2 to 3 years younger. And you know what? If you really like a person, have genuine feelings for them, a small thing such as age won't stand in the way. So if you are questioning the age factor now... then I don't think you like him enough to actually go for it with him.

If its no more than about 20 years and there is a good loving connection between you then there is no problem age doesn't matter if u have the connection!

Age should NOT matter at all--if both people are on the same page. If it doesn't bother you or him at all, then have fun and be safe. Although don't be surprized about comments about 'robbing the cradle' from friends $ co-workers!

Well i don't think age matters, look at demi moore and her husband. I'm 21 and boyfriend going to be 25, don't worry just stay with him.

That completely depends on you and him and not what outside sources think. If you have nothing in common or you constantly question his maturity it's time to rethink. Otherwise, enjoy life together.

when at the check out counter, they refer to your new stud as your son & not your significant other. Or vice versa. Enough said.

Age makes no difference at all. If you're happy and you know it clap your hands!
