    That's quite a large age gap. There will be quite a lot of difficulties in terms of understanding each other if issues are to arise. The younger party may not be willing to settle down to marriage so early because his/her older partner has already been long overdue for marriage. The final say will still be on the younger party, whether he/she can accept a partner 14 years older...

    14 years younger? Cmon now. That's not right, talk about generation gaps...

    My ex bf is 34 with a 20 yr old...I believe they first met when she was still 18/ I'm sure it's great now because she is somehow gotten talked into "swinging" with him,

    But, someday he will not be able to control her, and she will realize he just wanted other women and not just her....

    When you are older, you should have a certain maturity level about you. Having just sex in common doesn't work in the long run.

    I feel that if you really love someone, age should not be a factor that affect your relationship.

    If you are both over 30 then it's okay. Otherwise, definitely no.
