What's wrong with age gaps?

I don't understand why its wrong to date someone a few years younger or older than you. It just doesn't make sense to me.

As long as you’re both of legal consent then nothing else really matters. I’m a firm believer that if you have a connection with someone then that’s fine, regardless of age.

It's not wrong.  It's only wrong if you date a child which is the fast-track to an appearance (for life) on the sex offender's register which will blight your life in any number of ways you can't even imagine.

My wife of 22 years is 5 years older, I was 23 and she 28 yet, if we had met when I was 13 it would have been inappropriate, so the situation is important too. A lot of young people post here, if this is you, please be careful.

It's not, unless the gap is mentally inappropriate.

Absolutely nothing "wrong", in my own experience.
