when I was very young, I felt it was silly for a girl to date someone much older than herself (max 2 years older). Anything younger was acceptable
As I grew older , I felt it was silly for a girl to date anyone more than 7 years older than her. Anything younger was acceptable

At my present age, I now feel it is silly for a girl to date anyone more than 16 years older than her. Anything younger is acceptable
When I'm in my 70's, I suspect I would feel it is silly for a girl to date a guy more than 40 years older than her. Anything younger would be acceptable

Umh........
Just musing

moreeni: Men are naturally babies. The older they get, the better their maturity. Yes the age gab should at LEAST be 4 yrs and at most as old as the woman can live with. Although there shouldn't be bosses in a relationship but the man should be able to LEAD,it takes a lot of maturity to do that. Simple.

I dont know how to respond to you. Maybe you have been meeting men whose brains grow in reverse direction with their ages just like you do, suggestive of your comments.

I know you cant say that even if you met me at 20. I prefer husband and wife being at least 5yrs apart in age. But i want you to answer the poster's question on why your folk become desperate after crossing 25.

That's probably why you have "the Lord is my Shepherd" as your signature, desperate feathers flock together.

Xplodes2700: Age is definitely an issue, it makes me sick hearing a 25yrs old girl even dating a 35yrs old guy, in my own opinion i feel the age difference shud be @ least four years angry

if at least 4 yrs, what then wrong with 25yrs dating 35yrs. You have not specified your maxi

Womem of these days sef, I tire. Fine there should be no 'bosses' in a relationship but what will you call a man that 'LEADS' in that same relationship?

k2039:

Someone reasoning exactly like me.

When I hear of age difference of 10 years,I call it child abuse(not literal though)

People dont even consider the average age at which people die(let say the average man who leaves long die at 7O,so that means the widow will likely remain unmarried from age 60 till she dies.)

Life is not as straight and fair as you wished. Wife of 50yrs can die before husband of 75yrs. This is real. Wake up! No two relationship is the same.

SELFWORTH: Everything will be a problem for an immature man or woman. A small mind is a small mind. Age has nothing to do with .

My dear, you are there. I have seen 17yr olds more matured than 25yr olds.

Maturity doesnt come with age. Some people cannot digest that fact(fat)....no enzymes....

Its way too much but it depends on what you want. 15 years difference!
Re: Who Says Age Is Not A Problem In A Relationship? by ziondougta(f): 7:18pm On Nov 29, 2012
I don't think age matters in a relationship. The main issues are compartibility and love.
I dated a guy who was 4yrs older than me for so many years and wen it was time to settle down, he said I didn't have what he wanted in a wife.
Less than 2yrs after the break up, I met my hubby and one thing led to another and we are here today.
I only understood that my Ex felt threatened by me cos I had started working and even taught him driving while he was still in medical school. The truth is that I got matured than him.
My husband encourages me to do more cos no matter my acheivement, he wants me to do more. He is much older than me and I love him and very comfortable with him.
Just forget the age and go for the real stuff, who knows your Prince Charming could be even 2 decades olders.

The age gap is much, but if the guy in question is caring, understanding and loving, and treats the girl like his partner rather than his child or his younger sister, then I do not see anything wrong with their union.

Age is not problem at all in a relationship. My man is 15yrs older than me and we are happy together.

Morayo747:

Ok what he/she means is that everyone of the same age do not neccesarily have the same level of maturity. Clear enough for you huh? And the word is *Expantiate*. Stop using big grammar if you can't spell it. Explain would have served the same purpose....

Expatiate is real. Forget what you hear people pronounce....

Why is it rubbish?! It is the same mentality used to enslave women all over the world. If both of them agree to be together there is nothing important about the age.PERIOD!

I don't get what the attack is for Daddy. Maturity, in my experience, tends to come with age. At least you will agree that no matter the number of cloths a child possesses, the rags among can't be as much as that of an elder.
