I dunno...seems like after both of ya pass 25 doesnt really matter..does it. Just seems kinda awkward when there is a 21 year old with a 30 something. But when you are 60 and she is 50 whats the difference. Me and my wife are 11 months apart.

The Lovely Mrs. Schro is 3 yrs older than I am.
Guess there's really no hard fast rule. Obviously the older you get, the less of a factor age is.

Well, I think as long as the age difference isn't that great it's not a big issue. I've seen some odd ones at work though. The worst I saw, was the man who was in his mid fifties with his new wife who was 23 and their newborn. Normally I'd say 'Good for him!' but what made this situation wrong was that they were coming to travel and sight see, and in the van with them was the mans children from his previous marriage who were 12, 16 and 21, two boys and a girl respectively. Another one I saw was just last week and the guy was born in '54 and his 'girlfriend' was born in '87. That didn't seem all that wrong though as both were hideous and from outward appearances there only appeared to be, at most, a 10 year age gap.
I've been wondering the same thing lately myself as I've been in a bit of a quandary. There is a new clerk at work, and normally I'm a firm believer that you don't get your meat where you make your bread, but things are sort of pushing me to go against that. I just found out the other day though that she just turned 19 a few months ago, and I'll be 27 in 2 months. This is somewhat odd for me cause I've only ever dated women older than me, the oldest of which was just a few years mind you, but still.
Age really IS just a number, and is in fact relative to your level of maturity, how you act, feel and portray yourself.

As long as both parties are over 21 and neither has children who are older than the other, I can't see why it should matter.

I think it delends on the individuals. It can be an unconfortable situation for some.
Back when i was 28 years old I asked my son's pre-school teacher out on a date. She didn't hesitate and said yes. We went out and had a great date. We went out a few more times and on the fourth date the subject of ages came up. I was shocked to find out she was only 19! I asked her if she had any idea how old I was and she said she didn't care. When I told her 28 she didn't even blink.
She was a great girl but I could never get comfortable with the fact that when we went out she couldn't legally have a drink and that there were places I could go but she couldn't. I broke it off with her a few months later.
There were a lot of raised eyebrows by my friends too..........

When I was 22 I hooked up with a customer who was 20 years older than me. We dated off and on for a couple of years. She was my "bedroom teacher" if you will and the lessons taught are still being applied today!!

My wife is 10 years younger than I am (36/26), seems to be working out well as I'm a little immature for my age and she's a little mature for hers.
