Is age really just a number in a relationship?

Yes it is like except pedos but I feel for me I’m dating someone 3 years older but like we never had any issues and we’ve been together for 4 years. I feel if someone who’s 23 dating someone who’s 35 like yes there may be some things but people don’t get people that are in love cuz when people r in love with someone obviously they want it to work and to do it. Ignoring the whole using the other cuz they r older
Or younger like that’s their fault for not seeing it but for some it’s more obvious or it’s obviously not the one yk.

It's between you and the other person. Who cares girl. I'm about done with people who care about stuff that's none of their business.

That being said, depends on the ages lol. If you're like 33 and 21, yeah people will talk but it's normal. If you're like 57 and 18, yes a little weird lol. Chat me if you need help.

No. Age has very real and important things that go along with it. Small age differences don't matter. Large age difference most certainly do.

That's not saying large age differences can not work. But there are very real issues that need to be understood and discussed before getting serious.

Once your an adult and you know how you feel about someone then numbers are irrelevant.

No. It does eventually factor which can cause more problems than if you were closer in age and mentality. It's mostly about mentality anyway. But older people have way more experience than the younger, which can sadly be used to manipulate people.

Ultimately if both partners are above the AOC, and they feel they have a connection, then yeah. It's none of my business if one partner is 20 and another is 60.
Arguments can be made that, as a general rule, such an age gap might pose problems for two people to connect, but its ultimately at their discretion. Unsolicited (dis) approval from other people is irrelevant.

It is to a certain extent. I might get hate for this, but I don’t care because I am happy with my relationship. I was 15 dating an 18 year old. We’ve been together for almost three years now. It’s all about consent and your true emotions. It’s all about maturity.

If it is within 5 years then yes, if it is within 10 years it starts to matter a little bit, if it is more than 10 years I won't date them.

[magiusX26]

yes and no. its not that black and white. there are always going to be little things where it makes a difference no matter what differences in age there are (be it 10 seconds or a bilion years).

[boggboss]

Nope because that age represents something some can make relationships with a massive age gap work but many can't

It is really just a number. HOWEVER, it should be legal.

[PizzaOverlord]

Yes it is unless it is a situation where one person is like 16 and the other is like 60 or something ridiculous like that.

[ChattyGuy43]

I believe that is true.

[bklynbadboy1]

Yes it is but you can't be too young
