age difference shouldn't matter when love exists , and i am not saying only words , that is based upon successful relationships by me and a successful marriage of my parents ( my mother is older than my father ) Depends on the age difference. At 53; I can't see me dating a 25 year old and the relationship simply will not work. As this 25 year old ages; he will change drastically over the years as he starts to mature and there will be some major problems with someone twice his age. It would be more a mom and son relationship; not a romantic one. This is the logical course of nature and love is not going to make everything better magically. |

this is one of those like does race matter or does gender matter and the clich� and simple answer is that all you need is love but I believe, love can be built upon best when there is a strong foundation , which is easier to find when there is common ground so I think more important than age, is maturity level children are children, but once we all reach an age of 'adulthood' our maturity level an impact our compatibility and although very often, age is an indicator of life experience, wisdom, maturity, it is not always the case someone who is fifty may be more at the developmental stage of a 20 year old and therefore find themselves more compatible,, and vice versa I think its more common to find a similar developmental stage in those closest to our age,, but it happens that sometimes age is 'just a number' in some people that doesn't accurately predict their level of maturity or development,,, I agree. compatability is important for love to exist and we are often more compatible with those somewhat closer to our age often due to maturity. |

age is a number just as a street address is a number....
it helps you find the house your looking for, but it doesn't give you the slightest clue as to what is inside..... |

I think age is a frame of mind and your acceptance of who you are, what you want,and where your at during this stage in your life.

I don't think any sane person is willing to go beyond lawfully aged relationships, however beyond that if anyone is going to try to tell me what I can and can't do, they'll want to arm themselves first.
Kind of goes for anyone near me too really. Call me a democrat. |

I do not want to date someone as old or older than my parents. I think that would be too awkward. I certainly do not want to feel like a mother or babysitter in a relationship either. Most guys that are ten years younger than me are usually (there are exceptions to every rule) not at the maturity level that I would consider "dating candidates". This is just my opinion and nothing set in stone.

When looking for a partner I think age is a preference for some and irrelevant to others, it's a personal choice. If two people fall in love and are both able to marry then age does not matter in my opinion.

I don't know about maturity levels but I've found that it can be alright when an older woman cares for me in a motherly sort of way, or when a younger woman goes the other way and I get respect for having more wisdom or life experience. It doesn't mean that the relationship can't be romantic as well. Sometimes you can have too much in common. I had a date with someone that wasn't much older than me recently and a lot of people of my generation are quite political because we grew up in the Thatcher years. I couldn't really be doing with "my generation". I was never one for being trendy. Actually, I don't feel like I have all that much in common with most women my age.
I just don't think that I would want to date a woman that was much older than me because of physical attraction. It just wouldn't be there unless she was in particularly fine fettle. You can overlook someone looking a bit old to a certain extent but I dated a woman that had let herself go quite a lot and I started to feel bad about looking at her and being quite aware of her battle scars. I'm not really looking for a trophy girlfriend to hang on my arm but anyone is going to care how they look to other people to some extent. Besides, a lot of women want you to take them out, as if you are putting on some sort of public display and are proud that you're with a woman like her and want to show her off to other people. |

If age were just a number, then it would be legal for kids in the USA to buy alcohol. |
