For me, it depends on your underlying principles in life. When you choose your lifetime partner,is age an issue to you? What are the pros and cons of having an older husband or older wife or younger husband or younger wife to you?

I don't think anything matters if two people are in love, life is given and to be happy is the main thing and there is nothing like love to make you happy so if you have that feeling with someone that loves you back that is all that matters.

Right but the people that surround us can really affect our relationship with our love ones. No matter how we try to ignore the things that will come up as we go along into our relationship of the person we love, problems are inevitable that sometimes hinder our happiness.

Well when I was 27 I met my last girlfriend and she was 36. I have had many girlfriends over the years and by far this is the best one I have ever had. I think the pro's of having someone older is most of the time these people are past playing head games and seem more mature to be around. I also like girls my own age or tiny bit younger because they seem more out going and ready to party or whatever. I believe marriage should only be considered when the 2 people are at least over 18 and feel the exact same way about eachother. Once you and your partner feel the time is right then take the chance but go get married if your unsure because that can only lead to problems and divorce!

at the present, i am older than my domestic partner. an age difference of 8 yrs, and like any relationships there are pros and cons. he is younger so i have to be more understanding. it's funny that we learned something new from each other. though there are times that he's immature with his actions and decisions. but there are time that he is more mature than me. it's really a 2 way traffic relationship.
