Age in a the relationship?

    i think it's absolutely possible to love someone older/younger than you. 21 to 17/ 18 doesn't sound much of a difference but if you're comparing that to 13 and 20 then it's pretty bizarre. my theory is that as we get older, age becomes less and less of an issue. i mean 20 and 26/27 seems like a possible age gap. just a thought...

    age doenst prevent us form love but there are certain cases where its not appropriate till one is a lil older. but as far as like 20 to 17 no it shouldnt matter. i was 20 my hus 17 when we 1st started dating and it made no difference seeing how we saw things on the same level. i guess just depnds on how far of a age gap and the situtaion.

    Normally I would have objected to the age difference. But that was only if it was a younger teen with an older person. But I recently met a guy, who is 24 years old, and hes really great. And I'm not just saying hes sweet, or he has a good personality. Me and him click so well. I'm much more mature for my age, and we just get along so well. We share lots of similarities and I just enjoy being with him. We can carry on a conversation, we can be together without doing anything sexual and I've just never found such a connection with someone in my life before! I am 17, so we have 7 years apart but my parents married when my mom was 18 and my dad was 27, so they have 9 years apart. I really don't think the age matters much when your older. There are some differences but you can overcome those things. How much you care for one another and the connection you share is the only thing thats really a big deal.

    They say love is blind - they are right...

    Nor can love count my friend - there is over 13 years difference between me and my partner - like hello he was kicking it in high school when I was born - but hey I love him and he loves me and we have been together since I was 18 - I wouldn't recommend it if you any younger than 16 but if your in love - nothing and no one will be able to stop you being together and I wish you the best!
    Just make sure its something your family will accept too - mine have been so wonderful I can only hope the same for you!

    I am 17 and absolutely head over heels for a 22 year old. Age really isnt all that big of a deal.... at least a gap like yours and mine.... but i think it all depends on your attitude towards the relationship... if you are both mature enough to know what is going on and how strong the attachment is... am i making any sense? lol

    the rule is think f the person u like how old are they? split there age in half (like is he/she is 30 then the answer is 15 ,ya u get it) then add 7 to half there age and if your less then what u got your to young if no good for you

    Age is merely a number. I'm fourteen and my boyfriend is eighteen, but that doesn't get in the way of our relationship at all. I don't even remember that there is such a gap most of the time. As long as you care for each other, that's all that matters.

    It doesn't matter. When I was 14 I dated a 19 year old. Of course I got in trouble. But your age difference doesn't matter. Go for it.

    yeah umm if only 14 (will be 15 this year) and i am like tottally in love with my boyfriend and hes 17 (18 this year). so for me age doesn't matter, if you love the person then nothing is gonna stop you from being together.

    I really don't think age matters at all I'm 16 and my boyfriend is 20 almost 21 and have been together for a while now.

    age doesnt matter. if the two people really love each other, then the age means nothing.

    I have to say that I disagree with all people who factor in age as a big importance. Age, in my opinion, is just a number. You don't, really, pick who you love. Your heart does. Looks {which also depend on age} aren't a big deal either. The guy that I love is 17, and I am 13. Sometimes people make a big deal, but they get over it.

    Always,
