It's it really true that with love, all things are possible even with the age gap. Though 40 and 18 doesn't sound so typical but if a person is in-love, no one in this world could ever stop him. I know some people who are into such love affair and so far, they were able to handle it simply because they don't care what other people would say. So anyone out there who are into this kind of situation, always go for what you think is right because you don't live to please other people!

wow. twice her age?? I don't think their relationship would go smoothly, I mean, they'll probably encounter a lot more troubles than a normal couple does. and they'd probably get more raised eyebrows. ^.^ personally, I think age matters. at least that applies to me. I actually get turned off on guys when I learn their age, if they're younger than me. I think I have conditioned my mind that younger guys are immature than me. LOL but of course not all. I guess it also depends on how a guy looks and how he thinks and behaves. as long as a guy looks mature and acts maturely, then he's okay for me. but to date a guy twice my age??? never. it would seem that i'm dating my father. LOL

First of all if this happens to my family member I will certainly look out for the man's background. Whether he is really serious having a relationship with the girl or just playing around. I have known many men around the age of forty who is playful. This is the age when married men start to find a playing partner outside of his marriage. So girls out there you have to be careful. I am not saying all men are like that, but there are some who are like this. After finding out the true intention of the guy, I will approve if the man is truly still single, and genuinely love her and wants to marry her. Otherwise, I will advice my family member to just forget him.

I don't think tehre have to be a problem.I am 23 years old and I aways have a older partner and yeah someobody so much oldern tahn me?But is it a big deal?No i don't think so.And relationship like this isn't only about love, but if those two has something in common, if they know how to talk to each other.He can be still a child in his age and she can be very grown up, even if she is only 18 years old.The age doesn't really matter, there are much more important things.

I think I can beat that. =) I have an uncle who married a 19 year old girl when he was 64 years old. Imagine that? So I think there's nothing wrong about age gaps as long a you both understand each other and of course, LOVE EACH OTHER. =)

We went through this with my sister. She was 20 and dating a guy who was 42 with 6 kids to 2 different women. Nothing we said to her made any difference. I think age doesn't matter if you are in love. But there is a point where you just don't have enough in common. It eventually ran its course and they split up.
