Right is what is right for both of you.
I have a female cousin who was a widow and married a man 15 years younger than she and the family thought it would never last. Both are dead now - she died after more than 50 years of marriage and he died soon after of a broken heart.

after the age of 25 the age difference should be no more then 35 years before that the age difference is less 24 then 15
23 14 under 18 then 7 under 16 then no more then 5 .

I don't think we should allow society to dictate age restrictions in relationships. There is a 21 year age gap between my boyfriend and I (I'm 27). I have never been happier in my life. Just like with any relationship, it needs to have the essentials like trust, understanding, communication, interests, goals, etc. If those elements are in place, then nothing else matters. Love is the greatest feeling in the world, and age shouldn't stop anyone from experiencing it.

I think ideally, about 5 years. I date about 6 years older max, and about 4 years younger. I'm 27 ,so that makes a guy 33, or 23.
Of course it depends on where you are in life.
Both consenting adults? Well then whatever makes you happy

if they're both over 18 there is no "right" age. There are ultimately some stupid choices people can make dating way younger or older than they should, but there IS no right age, per say.

Like mostly everybody else mentioned here: Age shouldn't matter if he/she is "the one". As long as you are both over 18 years of age.
My future-hubby is 13 years older than me. We're getting married February of next year.

Age doesn't matter as long as both people are comfortable with it.
My husband and I are thirteen years apart. I'm 44 and he is 57.

Depends on the maturity level. I'm 6 months younger then my husband but my friend and her husband are 12 years apart. As long as it's not statutory rape then consenting adults can figure out what is right for them but discussing their feelings.

Age doesnt matter, as long as you both really love and respect eachother.
