Does age matter in relationship?

Yes age matters. It is illegal for an adult to have sex with someone under age 18, or nder age 16 in some states. Even if a potential partner is an adult, an age gap too large may mean that you have very little in common with them.

In some cases it matters.
For example, if a 67 year old grandma dated an 17 year old that would NOT be okay. But if a 67 year old grandma dated an 30 year old that would be fine.
But I think over a 40 years age gap is NOT okay. Mostly because the older person will die MUCH more faster which is the main problem. The bigger the age gap the more likely they will die long before you do. Which would get lonely because you lost someone you love. So it's probably better if your with someone who didn't have a huge age gap. That way when they die you won't be far off. If that makes sense. I'm a bit confusing.

Not really anymore. Maturity can happen at any age.

To me if you were beautiful inside if your heart is beautiful you're carrying you're smart you're happy you're intelligent your Weis your loving your age isn't going to matter to me it's who you are on the inside that matters to me everything else Works its way out somehow If You're Beautiful on the inside everything just kind of comes together

It matters in life. Ali I feel strongly that 30-ish men should not make advances to teenagers. That tends to work out badly for the young woman.

Yes. 10%, give or take, is no problem, 50%, give or take, is a problem, 100% (twice the age) or more is a recipe for disaster.

yeah ofc it doese i mean 25x22 are good but 16 and 13 aren't a wise man once said "divide your age by 2 add 7 thats the lowest u can go"

[ColHathi]

Not in my opinion. Not that it couldn't turn out to cause problems, but age is not what's important, in my opinion.

I personally dont think that age matters in any relationship unless it is an unreasonable age difference. But that is just my humble opinion.

[VerbalWN]

Depends on the your ages. From a legal standpoint I would go with yes.

[Twalli]
