age difference right or wrong?

[demz159]

Just wondering what you ladies think is an acceptable age difference to be in a relationship with someone? Say a 19 year old was with a 30 year old would you say that's right or wrong? Just curious lol :)

[calico236]

I think it depends on the relationship itself. Is it a healthy relationship?  Is one or the other in it for the wrong reasons? (Money/looks/daddy issues?). If all of those things check out I don't see it of any concern, but then again my opinion is a bit biased.

[littlestarr]

I don't find anything wrong me and my husband r 8 years apart he's 30 I'm 22

[jess-ann5]

I don't necessarily agree with the 19 and 30 year old scenario but my parents are 10 years apart and my hubby and I are almost 5 years apart. I think it more has to do with maturity level and life experiences.

But the younger the person is, the less likely they are mature or have enough life experiences to compare to the older partner. That is when manipulation comes into play. So it really has to do with the ages rather than the difference of the ages. For example; 25 yr old woman and 35 yr old man is more proportioned relationship (in regards to knowledge & experience) than a 19 yr old woman and 30 yr old man.

Only the people involved can decide that. Everyone is different maturity wise and emotionally. So many factors go into a relationship. I have seen some relationships that have big age differences last long times although I would have say most fail horribly with the people I know. But I honestly am not for or against them.

Love is love hun regardless of age... Everyone gt different opinion bt personally i dnt think its wrong as long some1 happy thats all metters really x

[AngelesV]

Dont see anything wrong with it, but if its for materialistic purposes then I would say no. My bf is 4 years older than me.  And I dont see anything wrong with it.

[jess-ann5]

Love really isn't love though when a 15 yr old GIRL is dating a 25 yr old MAN, thats a little different...

Ladies, would you want your daughter do this because she is in love????

[Dessypoobear]

I think if your under 18 dating someone 25 or older that's a little concerning. What kind of man dates someone so young. Like a 30 year old dating a high schooler, that's concerning. Just my thought. I'd be disappointed in my son if when he was a grown man dating such a young girl.

^^ i agree with jess-ann5 now that i have a daughter i look at wat would  i approve of n no i would not approve of her being 19 n dating a 30 year old first why would some one much older be interested in someone so young alot of times that much age difference the younger person is easier to manipulate me personally having a daughter now there's alot of things i am doing n thinking different

[Jesmo1]

I was 18 and my bf was 27 when we started dating. Now we've been married for almost 6 years... I'm almost 25 and he's almost 34. I'm not bothered by the age difference and either was my family. My patents who are divorced are 15 years apart. I thing age difference gets weird if one person is underage or double the person's age or old enough to be their patent

[new_sept_mommy]

Personally... It depends on both of the people in the relationship.. I am 19 and my fiance is 29. We are very happy, and have a great relationship. I can't remember the last time we argued. Though, I've pretty much been on my own since 15... I'm quite mature for my age, and we both have our heads on straight and know what we want from life and where we're going. We both have full time jobs, not to mention the misc. work that we do on the side. We are now 22 weeks pregnant with our first baby, and I wouldn't change it for the world. I couldn't ask for a better man. It really all does depend on the couple.  

[Tabbie12]

If your both of legal age, go for it. Age is just a number in my eyes. My mom is 41 and her fiance is 23.. Only 6 months older than MY husband, they've been together since he was 19 and she was 37. Love who you love, who cares what anybody thinks:)

[Tabbie12]

Mind you when my mom and her fiance met they didn't know each others ages. If its legal go for it!

[Chelsibreeze]

I am sixteen.My last boyfriend was 20 almost 21 and I was fifteen.He got me pregnant.And the worst part is he is the more immature one.I think age is just a number.Be with who you want if they make you happy.

[Mofroggy]

Like some people are saying, it depends on the people in the relationship. I'm 19 and my fiance is 29. But I forget that all the time because of how compatible we are. There's not a right or wrong. It's just true love or not, just like any other relationship would be.

[mommiKat]

A ten yr age difference is the max for me. I feel anybody older than that is not... right for ME. The oldest I dated was a 27yr old when I was 19. I've always dated older guys,  the youngest is my hubby and he's a yr older than me.

[rebeccaann11]

I feel ANY ONE over 18 can date what ever age.
BUT under 18. Kids don't need to date someone that is a lot older than than.
I feel under 18 the biggest age gap. MAYBE 5 years. But even that, that's pushing it.
If my daugther was 15 and dating a 20 year old. HE.LL no.

[jess-ann5]

Learn your history, in the 1800's age 13 was when it was time to get a husband and a man. Look at statistics for today and most woman are having children late in life. Yea your right, most 15 yr olds don't want to be kids.They want to grow up and be adults. I was the same way! DOESN'T MEAN YOU HAVE TO CONDONE IT.

I'm sorry its this kind of "loose" thinking is why they have freaking bras and itty bitty skirts in the toddler section! This is why you have 10 yr old looking up to wh0res like Miley Cyrus and dressing like they are 25 year olds in club! Yea its 2014 and I am absolutely disgusted by the majority of the GIRLS in my generation acting and dressing WH0RES! You call it "rapid maturity" I call it lack of parenting!

[MorganElizabeth18]

I completely agree with Rebeccaann . There isn't a problem with an age difference when you're an adult but children have no business dating grown men . For example , a girl I went to school with was 17 && dating a 30 something year old who had a 15 year old daughter . Tell me there isn't something wrong with that . He was sexually intimate with someone the age of his own daughter . That's sick . But that's just my opinion && to each their own . Love is love but legality doesn't care about love . A 35 year old man with anyone under 18 is a pedophile whether "love" is involved or not .

[Dessypoobear]

^agree! That age gap is awful and as a parent id be so disgusted. The way the girls in society act is disgusting.

[Dessypoobear]

I'm having a son and I'm pretty happy with that because having a daughter my biggest fear is her dressing the way this girls dress . I just can't believe some stuff that's changed. When I was 15 I wasn't dating I was still watching Disney channel. I just hope I can raise my son to be respectful and make sure he isn't 30 dating someone he could be the parent of.

[KJ_Wright]

When my husband and i got married, i was 16 and he was 20. Yes it may be a different society today but if two people know its right why should anyone judge? We've been happily married and have had a wonderful life. And we're still young. My grandparents were 13 and 17 when they first fell in love and they've had a life together of over 50 years. Its not wrong if its for the right reasons.

[HannahJohnson]

Im 18 and my husband is 34. Im not mature than he is though!

[HannahJohnson]

I meant im more mature than he is though
