Thanks eveyone.

She got married at 20 after an unexpected pregnancy.

Her husband was a jerk - she left him after a year and is now divorced.

She says she would love to settle down - live the american dream - nice house - more kids etc.

Im worried that she doesnt really love me - that i a m just a way out - im not mega wealthy but have a god job and could provide house etc.

Her daughter is a great little girl and doesnt put me off.

I have known this lady for almost 6 years. She is genuinely a nice person. Sometimes i think it would be great to vreat a family but worry i am amking a mistake.

That's not a horrible age difference. It's a little more than 6 years... but you're both well past the age of consent.

When you're 40, she'll be 33, when you're 50, she'll be 43, this works out good for you in the long-term... because your wife will be young and hot while all your buddies' wives are looking like Jimmy Page and Robert Plant at their Zep' reunion show a few years ago.

That all depends on the maturity level of both people, yes it can work. LIke anything else if you have the same future in mind then why wouldn't it work. If this is all a good time thing for one party and a settle down thing for the other ... well it may not be a lasting thing but that has nothing to do with age right !

i think of this is oftentimes nicely worth a shot. there is not any harm in going for it and if it does not paintings out a minimum of there at the instant are not any regrets. The age distinction is barely a great deal in case you sense this is. not something all people says at right here with reference to the age distinction somewhat concerns until you sense it does to you. in any different case this is all a gaggle of cyber area dumb asses putting of their 2 experience. you be attentive to on your heart the way you sense with reference to the age distinction and a few human beings on the age of 23 would be mature. So purely attempt it out. If the myspace verbal replace did not flow too nicely attempt texting if there remains not something a minimum of you gave it a good college attempt haha. i be attentive to you may sense like 23, and 29 are thoroughly diverse ranges of your existence the place you're searching for thoroughly somewhat some issues yet this is not continuously actual so decide for it and notice what happens. in spite of each and every thing you in no way be attentive to (: good success sweetie!

She's old enough that she probably is finished with her education and starting a career, so you're not that far apart lifewise. Six years is not that big of a deal, especially because of the point she's at. It's not so much a matter of age, as experience. If you're a worldy person, you probably do have an extra six years of life experience over her,which you will both notice. However, don't dwell on that, and focus on the experiences you have TOGETHER, and it should be fine.

As the saying goes age is a just number...
Truly it is. Me and my man are a few years apart and it doesn't matter as we match and we don't ever think of the age difference. If you love each other and get along that is what matters. Besides your age difference is not that big. I know people with 12-15 years between them happily married for years!

Dude thats not really so much far apart in age. What would probably be a factor u might want to consider, its that if both of u think clearly on the same page. Have the same mentality and both are mature. Uve a lil bit more lived that she has,,, I would pay attention to that.

6 - 7 years is not a great difference in age
if she is mature enough for you, and you relate well to one another, that is what is important.
I know women that at the age of 53 are still not mature enough to have a realistic relationship.
so, don't look at her physical age, look at how you relate to one another.
the only time age should be a factor is when one of the persons is a minor. then you have to wait.

There is nothing wrong with the age difference. Evaluate your relationship with her and where you might see the relationship going. She may be ready to marry (if that is what you want) at 23, so I wouldn't let age be any issue at all!

Age is just a number. The heart wants what the heart wants. If you are both mature enough to deal with the difference, then I say go for it

29 and 23? That's bearly an age difference at all.
Go for it, there shouldn't be an age difference problem.
Good Luck.
