7-10 years older or younger.. but my fiancé is 18 and I’m literally 25 but he’s the most incredible guy I’ve ever met despite our age gap.

  You’ll get no judgment from me. My second cousin was 28 when he got a 19 year old pregnant. So they got married and they adore each other. Always have, always will. Sometimes what may not work for everyone works out for several people. If the young person is mature for their age.

  @happywoman34 I feel like so many people in society are used to seeing their so called “norm” with the man being older but there’s nothing wrong with the woman being older either as long as she’s not like 50 and he’s 18 then she’s beyond his path to ever have children if he wanted any but we met this past spring when I was still 24 and he is 18, I’ll be 25 in 2 weeks but he turns 19 next March in 2024. I don’t see the issue either because our age gap is under 10 years and we’re both adults. Yeah it all depends on the individuals and where they are in life personally!

My wife is 38 years older than me. I’m 33, and she’s 71. I was 19 when I married her, and she was 57. She was married once, divorced and has grownup kids with kids of their own. We have a daughter 13 years old. As of two weeks ago, we decided to have another child. We adopted a baby boy three months old. I love her and our kids so much.

If I were single, I dont think i'd pursue a relationship above 46, and below 25 maybe. But that maybe a little low. Just thinking maybe a 25 single mum would be a little more mature and on the same page ( I have two young children)

I'm about six years older than my wife. Originally, I hadn't wanted much more than two or three years.

5 years older…. ONLY , IF, AND WHEN. He’s extremely hot and attractive.
And maybe 2 years younger. Cause young guys look like snotty HighSchoolers to me. 😬
Any guy in his early 20’s looks so infantile to me 🤦🏻‍♀️

Well, traditionally the creep meter is half your/their age + 7 years for dating/marriage.

Well let's see. The girl I'm dating now is 41 years younger. Would I marry her? Not ready for that yet but the age wouldn't stop me.

No more than 3 years. Age gaps don’t work long term.
I repeat - age gaps do not work long term.

  If age gaps don't work and most marriages don't work... then why bother?

For my current age, I would say about 5 years younger to a decade older. I don't like too young girls in an age gap.
