My wife Lisa is 32 years and i am 41 years old and it hasn,t had a negative impact on our relationship at all. I think if you are deeply in love with your partner that age should not mattter much. However i think that the age limit should have its limits.

my age difference with my partner is 15 years. we compliment each other and we help one another dealing life maturely.of course, there were times of fighting and reconciliation which is a part of learning to be together and see if things will work out fine. i believe that we should not hide as to who we are to our partners and it is important for each other where we stand with an issue and see if we can deal with it and resolve an issue,and if we both can and move on then it is a good sign.

Age difference does not matter most. The most thing which matters is your attitude towards each other and how your thoughts match. I and my wifes age difference is about 5 and 1/2 yrs but our thoughts do not match. She is not responding to her duties as a wife mother and daughter in law. So you can understand the agony which we people in general are facing. The thing being we are suffering and our woes dont stop untill she departs.

I am four years older that my partner and we are just ok and living happily. They say it's better for the man to be older because women tend to mature early in life. But I guess when you are past teens you are both mature now and age is not difference anymore.

The difference between our age is two years and i am perfectly comfortable with it. This diffence of age has had no effect on our relationship and i dont forsee any in the future too. However if the age difference is too high i think it would have effect on the relationship over the long run.

I think they age diffeference just depends on the person older guys might be right for me but not for another person :) There is a 11 month age difference between me and my fiance he is older than I. I have always went for older men younger ones seemed to immature (Im 22)

I am 55 years young and my partner is 29 years old. People say the age difference is far too much but we have been together three years now and are both very happy indeed

My husband is 20 years and a few months older than I am and we still get along I think that the age difference does not matter as long as you are happy.

Hey same here, my hubby is also 2 years elder than me, but we dont face any problem reagrding this age issue.....and at time I also feel like this ways that I take the decisions more maturely as compared to him. I use to say him that he is really a kid till now, sometimes he reacts so childishly that I say him I dont need a kid as I do have one.....LOL

We are the same age. It doesn't effect our relationship in any ways that I can see. We are both mature so there are no little problems.

There is a 3 1/2 year difference between me and my husband. We don't always agree on one thing not because he's more mature or I'm more mature. For some reason we just don't agree on what we do. Between my husband and I, I would say he's more "traditional" if you know what I mean. It's like I'm more open to doing things differently and he's not.
