If a man is 15-year older than you, but he fancies you and treats you very well. When you are unhappy, if he knows it,he will try his best to comfort you.And you are very happy with him.By the way,he is single too. What would you do when you meet this situation? do you think age is really not a problem.

For me it's not a problem, but it's necessary a specification: how old are you? If you are very young till 25 years I think it's quite strange and it would be too strange if you have less than 20. I think that after 25 you are sufficient mature to think about and to manage the relationship. So if it's what you want, it's okay.

Well said, matpunk85! Albeit age is not a problem, but the range of age must also be taken into consideration...If she is too young to marry e.g 20-25 years old I don't think it is okay...Besides, usually women nowadays like to build on their career first before getting their hands into marriage and family life... Nevertheless, I believe if she is too young, she shouldn't have relationship with a man 21 years ahead of her despite the fact the age does not matter...That will certainly make them look like father and daughter at the very first impression...Age does not matter, but what people said matters! You won't want to hear bad talk about your relationship after the marriage, would you? However, love sometimes catches us in life, and we cannot deny what has been fated for us by the Lord Almighty...Accept what has been fated for us, and embrace love to the fullest, as it is one of the greatest gift given by God...

mmm...they are from different countries too...it's another problem, but I think it's minor but adding the problems they became bigger. I can speak about becoming from different countries cause my girlfriend lives in Albania and me in Italy. Even if the countries are near they are not so similar, every country has his own culture and habits.

In my opinion age doesn't matter so much as how happy you are with that person. There is an age difference between my husband and I by about 21 years. We love each other very much and have a 15 year and counting marriage. Our daughter is 20 years old and married. We just bought a new home in Tennessee and our life could be better but we have everything we need. Age doesn't matter so much when the person you love makes you happy.

Indeed you have led a very good life and marriage...15 years and counting is an achievement for any relationship, and I believe you have really worked hard towards that with your partner...I have always believed that age does not matter when it comes to love...I know someone who married a woman 15 years older than himself, and they really love each other...Love is a great feeling given by the God, use it to the fullest...

When a man will treat you that wel, the last thing that you do is to let him get away from you. Age should not matter in the least here. Age has little to do with how you are treated as a person. The way you feel when you are with that person is what should matter the most.

So as long as both are mature it does not matter in my opinion if one is older then the other. I do feel that age should be a factor in a relationship, within reason of course, and I mean it to be as long as the other is of age and not a minor. But love is not about numbers it is about emotions, trust and happiness.

I think yes,age doesn't matter. When we feel love in our heart,we don't focus on age or physical appearance. We just follow what our heart desires. So,i guess...really won't be a big deal or a barrier for liking or loving someone.
