is it easy having a relationship with a younger person please best answers only?

Question

i ask this question cause sometimes the age diffrence plays a factor so thats why i asked

Answer 1

Well, as the younger person in my relationship, I know of the main difficulty it has caused for me and my husband.

I am the oldest child in a young-ish family (I am 37, my parents are in their mid 60's).

My husband is the youngest in an older family (he is 46 and both of his parents are deceased, his oldest sister is only 7 years younger than my Mom).

To my parents, we all all "the kids" even though we are clearly adults. For me, that is how it always has been and no big deal, but it was harder for my husband to adjust to being thought of as a "kid" in his 40's. Thankfully, in our 10 years of marriage, we have adjusted very well, but it was not an easy thing at first.

I hope this was the kind of answer you wanted. As far as my hubby and me, our age difference has never been a huge deal except when he teases me about things he was doing in college when I was in middle school. :-)

Answer 2

It depends on the people involved, but every relationship will have differences. The key is are you on the same level in terms of maturity. Also, the older you get, the less dramatic the age difference is. If you are 30 and he's 20, then you are in totally different places. However, if you're 45 and he's 35, it's more likely that you'll find common ground in terms of your outlook on life.

Bottom line...as long as he's over 18...go for it. Nothing ventured, nothing gained!

Answer 3

When I was 19 I dated a 26 year old girl for a little, oh it was so good! LOL. She definitely made me grow a lot, but later when important issues came out, I was obviously very unprepared and couldn't match her, so we split without resentments. Later when iwas 25 years old i dated a 19 year old girl, and funny, the tables turned and i totally understood then, we split because she cheated on me but I was willing to marry her, it's ok, it's the past.

what I think is that the age doesn't matter, the only thing that matters is the level of compenetration and understanding the couple has, adn if they are willing to work on it, hey...get to it baby!

Answer 4

It has been my experience that it's best to be w/ some1 around your own age so you can relate to one another in more than just a sexual way. Sex only lasts so long, then you hafta talk to each other. If you're too far apart age-wise that will be difficult. Also, if you're 20 and your mate is 40 you might have a hard time relating to why they won't go out partying until dawn since they're substantially older than you.

Be well~

Answer 5

Sometimes age is just a number usually I find that It works with a older man younger woman cause a mans maturity is slower ..but its always about the person at hand

Answer 6

I have a friend that married a woman twice his age she was in fact his mothers best friend in school..they are happily married and have been for six years now....if you don't have a problem with it don't worry about it and don't care what other people think it's not there life it is yours do what ever makes you happy.

Answer 7

I don't think it makes a difference. My hubby is 4ys younger than me and we've been together 10 years. I also have a friend who just married a girl 10ys younger than him, they ge along just fine.

Answer 8

NO it is not easy i was with this guy who was 2 years younger then me for 6 months....a total wase, honest!

Answer 9

As long as the younger person isn't still in grade school, and you are in high school, or college, it should be no problem

Answer 10

I was always scared to date older guys so I stuck to younger guys. Maybe because they have less experience and have fewer sexual partners.
