If you are comfortable with someone, then any age gap is ok.
If you are more worried about what other people think then you do not truly love the other person so you shouldn't be with them anyway.

After the college years (18 to 22 yrs. old), I think there is a comfortable gap no more than 10 years. Anything more might create problems between stages in life; for instance, the younger person might want to be social and go out, while the older person might want to just stay in. It could cause problems in the relationship...

Id say between two mature adults.. 15 or more years difference is ok. the gap can be bigger the older people are. When in youth, 1 or 2 years is seen as a big thing. It does not matter once you are both mature..

I suppose: if the oldest person on record, who is 123, married a 16 year old, there would be a 107 year age gap. If Methuselah married a 16 year old, there would be a 884 year age gap. I hope helped you.

I know this girl who is 22 and datin a 53 year old. Im not sure its gonna work out. I believe thats to much of an age difference. I'd say no more than 5 or 10 yrs after that it just becomes sick.

Certainly no right or wrong answer to that. You have to go with your heart. If you adore someone, why break up with them just cause you think they might be a tad old?
In my own, personal opinion. About 10-15 years gap max. I've always gone out with fellas a bit older.. my last boyf was five years older. I would say up to 4 years is just nice. :o)

Depends on the age.
There's a HUGE difference between 12 - 18 (6 years) and highly inappropriate.
But the age difference between 36 - 42 (6 years) would easily be seen as acceptable.
- I think deep down we all know inapproperiate when we see it.

If you are under 18: No more than 2 to 3 years.
If you are 18-24: No more than 4 to 5 years.
If you are 25-30-No more than 7 to 8 years
Over 30-doesn't matter.
