the can of worms has been opened yet again, how significant is age to you in a relationship admittedly there are social factors involved with a large age gap say of 15 even 20 years e.g. 21 year old and 36 year old that make it seem wrong but at the end of the day if two people are happy enjoy eachother and even love eachoter it shouldn't be a problem for anyone, whats everyone elses thoughts on this?

Over the years the age difference has ranged from 12 years older to 7 years younger than me. As far as I am concerned it is the man under the skin that matters, not the age of the skin.
At the moment I am with a guy 6 years younger than me but am very friendly with a couple of men who are ten years younger than me.

I'm 54.....my wife is 28. The difference in ages make us stronger. I think when there are big differences in age or race or religion and all is discussed going in, the pact that the couple has will keep everyone else's opinion and criticism out. There is alot of pressure naturally from society but you can't let it influence you if it's right. You have to explore your motives and heart and know you're in this "different" relationship for the right reasons.

If you can take the sex out of the relationship and it's still a connection than it's fine. A young girl and older man or vica versa needs to have that proof that the relationship isn't about physical attraction or financial only. What did you think when Anna Nicole married that 89 year old guy? That is what a lot of people think.

I am 21 and dated a 31 year old just to last month. I think my limit would be 25-48. Though I think that if it bothers no one else go for it.

As long as the two people are mature enough to handle the relationship I do not think their age difference should matter.

Physical age is no reflection on either mental or emotional age which are the real improtant factors in any relationship.

age shouldn't matter as long as it is socially acceptable. you know no 15 year olds with 20 yr olds (but then again in todays society it is becomming acceptable.) as long as the love each other or enjoy each other it shouldn't matter.

I believe that happiness has no age and as long as it's legal than it's just a matter of emotion.
