I think it all depends on the people.... the biggest age difference that I've ever been in a relationship with is 13 years younger.

People mature at different rates (or none at all), so just because the difference in age may be great, the difference in "life" might not be that much...

Well I've been on both sides of the fence. Currently my g/f is 3 years older than I am. :@` Many years ago I had a 10 year relationship with a young lady 7 years younger than myself. >:D I don't believe age really has much of an influence one way or the other. I think that maturity levels, experiences and othe commonalities are what make a relationship work regardless of age differences.

Sometimes I have a hard time remembering that I am the age I am, so the prospect of dating someone in their 20s doesn't phase me at all.  I just don't feel like I'm too old to go out with someone that age, though there are probably plenty of people who would tell me that I am.  I think a lot of it has to do with attitude.  Some people just maintain a youthful outlook their entire lives, while other people seem like they were born old.

paulie...good topic!  when it comes 2 relationships... there R going 2 B many differences such as age, opinions, etc.  however... if both parties don't mind than it doesn't matter.  hence... age ain't nothing but a number.  O0

First off - GO HAMMER!

OK, I am 14 months older than my wife so we're pretty close in age.  I don't really act my age, and frustrates the daylights out of my wife sometimes.  I will be 38 this year.

I don't think in a relationship it matters if both people are OK with it.
