a friend of mine is going out with this guy, she's 22, she's old enough to make her own choices, and do what she wants, her and her new boyfriend seem great together, they have everything i wish i had with the guys i go out with, it's like they're meant to be, but the only problem is they're 28 yrs. apart! he doesn't look his age, he looks more in his late 30s, and he's a really great, nice guy....so is it really wrong, i mean ppl now days are dating other ppl way older or way younger, like demi n ashton, donald trump, and lots of others. so is it really wrong? should i be worried about her? what would you do?

age is just a number. love has no age.

There is nothing necessarily wrong with it. It really depends on the maturity level, interests, and values of the couple. It is less likely that all those things will match up if your ages differ a lot, but everyone's different. If you're both adults, though, then generally speaking there is nothing wrong with dating one another. So I would worry a little... but no more than you would worry anyway. She's your friend and you want what is best for her.

I am of the belief that age between partners does not matter. I would be concerned that the gap of 28 years is quite a difference, but Love conquers all. Share your concern with her and then wish her the best of luck. Anything is possible, even their happiness until the end of time.

If it really is a great relationship then you shouldn't worry. As long as they love and respect each other then they should have as much right to be with each other as any other couple.

At 22 she has the right to figure that out for herself. If it's wrong she'll know.

It is not wrong at all...She's over the age of 21...so, what's the problem? Why worry about her? If she wants to date him, let her....it really isn't your business..

No, I do not think it is wrong at all. She is old enough to make her own decisions, and if they are happy together, there is nothing wrong with them being together.

my guess is she has asked herself these questiions already. if you know him that means neither is hiding the relationship--so they must be pretty secure. as he is probably more settled, secure etc. just watch to see that she maintains her independence. it can be very seductiive tto allow hiim to make decisions, control the dates, etc. just because he is older should not mean he dominates. mostly, just be a good supportiive friend as you would normally.

if she loves him and he treats her right I don't see any reason why not
