Whats your limit?

I have to drag a friend off a bloke she likes when we go out cos she kisses him then seriously regrets it in the morning cos she is in her mid twenties and he is nineteen.
Since i was about 14 i vowed NEVER go out with guys younger than me-or even the same age.I like older men anyway

So whats been your biggest age gaps in your relationships?and how old/young would you go?

My husband is considerably younger than me, 11 years, and age is completely and totally irrelevant - he's the grown up and I'm the kid in the relationship.

My other half is 11 years older than me, I've never been out with anyone younger!

supposedly the best age thing for a bloke is ...half his age plus seven , so for a 40 yr old it would be 27 , (think its a chinese thing )

Amazing to get something right without even realising it

I was 18 when i met my ex,whom i was with for four years-he was 18 years older than me.The age difference didn't get to us until the 6 months-hence why it was the last six months lol

In what way ?

At the end of the day if you really love someone and them you then what the age difference is shouldn't matter. Its only when wary of the age difference and being somewhat ashamed of it that problems can occur. Better to enjoy what you have and not worry about age difference and what others say.

Other peoples disparaging comments on couples with large age gaps.

You are either a toyboy or a bimbo and that sums up attitudes.

A few-i wont go into details as we both know some people on here personally,but our views on how parents should be was one that springs to mind (not the actually parenting) that sort of thing.

Anyone who knows me well enough knows that this is my gripe - does it fluffing matter as long as over age of consent ??? The big issue should be that its the people in the relationship that matters. Age is irrelevant & im with spuggie on his point totally

The problem is such people make difference an issue!! Age is only a number!

mrskitty · 26-03-2007, 20:11

I used to find it hilarious when we saw his friends that hadnt seen him in a while and they said 'Blimey-didn't know you had a daughter!'
LOL-he took it as a compliment-it wasn't peoples views that split us up at all.

Parenting isn't a problem until you have kids

both paris n my late missus have been between 1 @2 years younger, but too be perfectly frank age would have never been a factor from my point of view, neither would looks (though both bonny lasses) to me its always the person,simple as.
