Age Gap

How many of you are in a relationship with someone older or younger...I am talking a significant amount of a gap, not just a couple of years... Do you have problems because of your age differences? Do you think it was why you were attracted to them or did it have anything to do with it at all?

I have boyfriend who the age 8 years older than me. I'm 20 and he's 28 years old. Nothing different. I just spent my day like the couple who not too different about the age. I like him, he like my brother. But the basic, he loves me so much. In relationship we never talk about the age. I'm a women, and he just a man. Don't care about the age. :)

It isn't a huge difference but my s/o is almost 14 years older than me. It sometimes causes issues but mostly over silly things. If we go out, I have to be careful to not dress too young otherwise we get weird looks from people thinking he's my dad (our hair color is the same so it's an easy mistake). We have slightly different taste in music. He'll talk about a show or movie he used to watch that I've never even heard of. His age didn't make a difference to me, I don't know if my age affected his feelings.

I am 10 years younger than my boyfriend. But everything is ok and we understand each other despite of age gap. But sometimes hobby doesn't meet when he want to be on a silent place while i wanna be on a party.

I'm not in a relationship at this time. I do feel however that if two people (consenting adults) are in love then age really shouldn't matter. My sister at 16 was dating a man that was 52. I thought that was wrong due to her age. But if she had been a couple of years older it would have been totally her business, in my mind.
