I just saw this on a tv show about real-life stories ("maalaala mo kaya" - do you remember) Love really knows no age, it comes at any time. And when it is really real, it can really last and make people happy. The story was so heart -warming, the kid fell in love at first site with the girl. They became close friends but the girl treated the boy just as a younger brother.Then the girl went away without the boy not saying his true feelings- but after a few years, she came back and the boy confessed. The girl couldn't accept it at first- because of the age gap, guy was now 16, girl, 31. But she realized that she loved him too- now they're happily married.

Nice love story. All have not a happy end : at the age of 6 I fall in love with the girl of the neighbor who was 16 and mentally retarded. My grand mother was anxious and was thinking that I would be also mentally retarded and she broke my heart .

That is such a sad story! I want to take that little boy into my arms, give him a huge hug, and tell him that everything will be alright in the end.

The boy did fall in love at first sight with the girl. And yes, it knows no rules.. that's why the story was so good- the by was actually what the girl really needed and he changed for the better to make the girl happy too. it's amazing what love can make people do

To preface this, I didn't see the show, so I don't know all the details. But am I the only one who is slightly sickened by the thought of a grown woman being with a child? If he was 16 at the time of the relationship, I mean. There's something very wrong, very predator-like about that to me. The concept of love crossing age gaps and time is sweet and heartwarming; however, when it happens and one of the people is still a child or lacking in relevant relatioinship experience.... well, it bothers me.

I saw that episode too last Saturday. And the story is really heartwarming. Love sets no boundaries. Even at a younger age he tried his best to win the girl he loves. And wait for the right time to confessed it. Falling in love requires a lot of risk. But you must always have the courage to tell it to the person you love. Even if you don't have the guarantee if they will love you back or not. At least you take the chance to show and tell them how much you really love them.

Yes, it was so cute how he was really nice and kind of courted the girl, without the girl really knowing. I was really glad when the guy had the guts to confess to the girl.

Pretty cool it is neat how this happened to where they got together after so many years. It is nice that she didn't take advantage of him when he was younger though. A real good love story!

Wow!! I have never heard about this one, and I am sure things like this do happen from time to time but this is still quite amazing, and goes to show that the Love was still there and meant to be even as he got older. Age does not really matter and should have no limit when it comes to Love. Because truly it should be up to the 2 individuals and when you know you know. Wishing them all the Best.

the romantic in me is going awww. man this really is too sweet. but thinking practically, since they are now happily married, they must have gone through some ordeals themselves as well. and there are more for them to go through since both are still young. after all, they have a lifetime ahead of them. but the boy must be really mature and true, since he's been staying true to his feelings since he was 10 and how he's 16. it's 6 years but apparently he didn't forget her, so the feeling must have been stronger than crush, infatuation and all. i hope they really can last. that would be even stronger proof that no matter how little, true love does happen for some. i just hope it happens for all and they can be happy but unfortunately reality is different. thanks for sharing. this gave me a sweet feeling in me.

What???!!! This is true story? This is real? If this is real, what on earth could let this happen? 16 is not the age of majority, maybe in certain culture. I don't think we're talking about primitive or isolative tribe way of living.

Yes, I do agree that having your heart broken is better than not loving anyone at all. Loving someone is a great feeling, but it would be much better if that person loved you back..

In terms of love everybody is equal and no boundaries unless minor age.

That is very rare. I don't watch that program now. I used to watch it but I just got tired of it. They air great episodes there because it's coming from another person's life. Truly, love knows no boundaries. I also fell in love with my teacher when I was in grade 8. She was just too stunning and charming.

I watch it only sometimes since it starts quite late now.. I kind of have a crush on my teacher once... I don't think it's love though- he was pretty cool, funny, and smart and nice.

Well, I guess it has nothing to do with age but maturity? Then again, 10 years old could be a bit too young? But who knew, only time could tell

Hi lady 1993 I cann´t imagine it. I have a 10 years old boy, and he is so tender. He is shy, and even he doesn´t think about girls. So it sounds odd to me that a 10 year old boy could really express a true love for a woman aged 25. He could feel some kind of maternal love, he must had some rough problems with his mother´s love. I´m 38. I can´t get used to this kind of weird relationships. My father leaves with a "woman" aged 36, since 14 years ago. I just can tell you that it hurts and sicks me =( ... Blessings! ... Dainy

10 year olds are way too young to even understand what love is. And at 16 - he's still just a kid no matter how old he feels. Way too young for my taste.

These things do happen. That is the reason why we, as adults, should always monitor the kids nowadays, and we should explain things to them. Theirs are not love, but rather infatuation and attraction. As even adults do commit the same mistakes of taking attraction for love, we can not imagine how a 10 year old kid would actually fall in love while in fact, love entails responsibilities. In fact, it is an act, a doing of sort. Therefore, the kid is attracted to the woman, and he thinks it is love.
