I think maybe 6. It is not good over 10. Women live longer than men, so if you have a husband who is much older than you, how about your old life? Being lonely? Frankly, I'm afraid of loneliness, especially when I become old. Then I can't go to some hot places such as dancing bars, cinemas, and so on. It is too pity to go outside by myself.

As long as one person is not underage, then there should not be an age gap between a husband and wife or boyfriend and girlfriend. They both have to be adults to have a relationship. Age should not play a part in a relationship other than one of them not being a minor since that is illegal and a person can go to jail and be charged with rape. There are plenty of couples out there that have big gaps in age but have the most wonderful relationships. I have dated ladies that were somewhat younger than me though not much.

I think age gaps make more of a difference when your young. Me and my boyfriend are the same age and only have a few months between us. When your 12 and going out with someone who is 17 it's completely different from being 30 and going out with someone who is 40.

Age really is not an issue at all. Most importantly, the couple must love each other. Love is all that matters. Superficial things such as age does not have an impact on ood relationships at all. We should not allow this to affect our choice of a partner.

to each his own. there should not be any minimum or maximum age gap. everyone is different. just because one person is 25 and immature doesnt mean that another 25 yr old is. marriage isnt something to take lightly. it is a union between two people. many times, these two people become parents and that makes their life very different. you should chose who you truely connect with and love, regardless of age. my husband is five years younger than me. had i gone with the whole society laws...i wouldnt have married him and i wouldve missed out on a wonderful life and family that he has helped me to build. go with your heart and dont worry about what your head says, in the respects of age.

I don't think there has to be a gap!? I have the same age as my GF and that works fine :-)

Numbers don't matter. I think that it's a combination of maturity and compatibility. Age doesn't make people incompatible as one can learn a lot from someone older or younger. Now if a 20 year old and a 40 year old are together and the 20 year old likes to party and the 40 year old likes to chill out at home it's definitely not going to work. Like I said, compatibility.

I don;t thinn they should have a minimum age gap I think it differs with each person. I do believe for me I would not go more than 10 years or so either younger or older. And even that is not set in stone, more of a general guidleine.
