Im 36 this year, hes 33....i think an age difference matters if you are very young, but as you get older it doesn't really if you're compatable Smile

thanks for all u'r replies its nice to hear.
i dont let it get to me 99% of the time, just from time to time it upsets me coz i love my husband so so much and hate to hear people slagging him off for being with someone so much younger. i never tell him coz i wouldnt want him to get upset by it.
i also have been married to someone younger then me and it really was awful, he though i was his mum more than his wife....thanks again everyone! Very happy

Take no notice Kel Kiss I met my hubby on the internet, and do people take the pee! Made me so angry because although we have ups and downs, my hubby is the most kind, caring person who dotes on me and vice versa. Never met anyone like this before!

People are just so quick to judge when they see happiness, they don't like it.

theres only 4 rs between me and my partner so cant really say but my best mate is with someone 15yrs her senior and he has treated her like a princess!
They had the most gorgeous "fairy tale wedding" ive ever seen and have 2 gorgeous boys! I dont think age matters at all its how you work at your relationship and make it work!
I love my DF so much its hard to describe, hes been there for me through thick and thin and im not the most easy person to live it lol! and hes still there after everything thats what matters Smile

*moved to relationship advice* Smile

I don't believe age should be a barrier in a relationship of consenting adults. I know plenty of women in relationships/married to older men. I think people, unfortunately, take a much dimmer view of older women with younger men which I find ridiculous!

On the other hand, one thing I do hate to see is lads in their 20's picking up their 13yr old 'girlfriends' from the school gates. If I had a daughter that'd reeeally worry me!

In an adult relationship age should be no barrier!

I'm 29 and my hubby is 29...
BUT - I do find older men really attractive! Why the hell not?? I wouldn't blink at a gal for being with an older man. In the same way, there's no harm in being with a younger bloke. It all depends on personality, interests and attraction. DOB is not important.
