You will never understand each other, your age difference matters....?

While it is true that many may agree that all in love is fair, still we can see "age" as a very important factor in choosing a spouse. What do you care to believe in?

    I don't think age difference is really a factor for most people anymore. My friends parents are 20 years apart, my aunt and uncle are 10. I dated a guy that was 4 years older than me. For some people it works out, for others it doesn't. I think people have more of a problem with it if you are dating someone underaged such as a question that was asked earlier "Is it okay for a 23 year old girl to date a 15 year old boy?". When things like that happen then you must look into the legalities of it. It may not be morally wrong to some people but it is wrong in the eyes of the law. My opinion is love is love, just make sure it's legal.

    I am a 40 year old man. I try to keep it within 10 years of my age as far as the women I tend to date. If she is old enough to be my mother or young enough to be a daughter, then forget it. I most certainly will not want to get with a woman between 18-25 years old. Sure she may look good, but she isn't necessarily good to get with. After all, what would I have in common with a woman who is young enough to be my daughter?
