Search Results: age difference in a relationship

Extra credit: What if you initiated the relationship? Would you later back out for the reason in question, even to the extent of cutting all contact; no friendship?

The biggest age difference I've had in a relationship is my previous relationship which was with someone 9 years older than me, and I'd say the biggest difference I'd still date someone at is 13 years. What's yours?

Here are some facts about us

- We’ve been together for about a year
- Age difference is 5 years. I’m 25, she’s 20.
- She lives in Germany and we met through our mutual friends

When we were in the honey moon phase, I wanted to talk to her everyday. But not anymore.
Let me explain this...

I think I don’t miss my girlfriend as much as she does. Even though she’s very mature for her age, she can still be little childish about some stuff. I don’t mean to say she’s clingy because she certainly isn’t. However, I don’t feel the need to talk to her as much as she wants to.

I love her so much. I’m thinking about asking her to marry me when she finished university. We get along super well, our conversation are great and I don’t want to lose her.

But this doesn’t mean I want to talk/texts as much as she wants to. She doesn’t want to talk everyday or anything, it’s more liek 2-3 as week.

She sometimes says to me “i know you love me but why don’t you show it to me?” But for me, I think the fact I love her is what matters, not just some texts. Because isn’t that what’s important?

She said “you used to give me attention and time but now I’m the least priority in your life” . I know she’s sad especially because we’re in a lomg distance relationship.

I want to make this work, and make her less sad but at the same time I don’t know if I’m being unreasonable or not.

What do y’all think?
