Hi hon I feel, as long as true love is there nothing can come in between. It all stars to bug when the love starts to fade and get materialistic. Then the ifs, shoulds, buts come in! And 10 years should not be a problem practically as well if the lady is younger. Thanks.

It doesn't matter at all.Me and my partner have a 16 yrs.age gap but we are not bothered at all.In fact we are so happy with each other. It's the love, trust and understanding that matters.As they say love can moove mountains.Take care!

Well for as long as you loved each other and can tolerate each other then there's nothing to worry about. Society has been harsh on accepting this kind of a relationship but when the couple can provide prrof that they could live and could perfectly adjust with each other then go for it. Be happy with the decision you've made.

Hmmm... That has always been the question. Actually it would depend on the age... Like if the girl is 12 and the guy is 22 or 23, that would probably be a problem right? Hmmm.. but if the girl is around her late 20's, then I guess it wouldn't be too bad. I remember my dad telling me something about that, it's because of the maturity level of both parties. The age wouldn't be too noticeable if the girl is in her 40's right?

It doesn't appear to be for my wife. She has just turned 39 and I will be 58 in November, and she and I are very happy together. After 21 age is just a number so it shouldn't be a bother to anyone

I say as long as you both are, well, legal, it shouldn't be much of a problem. My girlfriend's aunt is 18, and has been dating a man over twice her age for some time now. Nobody seems to be bothered by this fact.
