Find answers to your legal question.





How much of an age difference is there between you and your spouse?

And do you think it makes any kind of difference in your relationship or in your marrage?


Mine and my husband's is 5 years difference:
He's younger... I'm 26, he's 21
I really don't notice the difference.
Additional Details
I'm not asking for myself... I'm fine with our age difference. I just figured if I asked the question then I should atleast answer it. I was just wondering peoples experiences with age difference.

5 & 1/2 years.

When my wife and I first dated, she was 27, I was 22, and it was a factor, more for her than me. She moved away, but we kept in contact for 15 years before we lost touch.

I tracked her down using the internet a few years ago and were married last year.

The difference betweem 52 and 57 doesn't seem to matter.

I'm 23 and hubby is 27. I even dated someone that was 10 years older than me for awhile. I don't think age is that big of a deal once you're over 20! It's all about maturity!

I was 25 and my wife was 30 when we met, now I am 39 and she is 44. We are still together and have 3 beautiful daughters. the age difference never seemed to matter, we have alot in common, growing up in the 70's& 80's is one of them.

My fiance is 6 years older than me. Age should not matter if you love eachother and have the same interests.

age dosent make a difference its a number thats it.If you love and respect each other thats all the matters.There is 12 years difference between me and my hubby.I am 25 he is 37

26 and 30. I'm the younger one, I don't notice I difference. Sometimes I forget he is older.

My wife and I are 1 week apart, and it does not make a difference. Age is purely a number, and if you work at your relationship, have trust, understanding and communication, you can get through any of the bumps in the road.

6 years difference. (He's older). I think the older you get the less difference it makes. As we all mature our goals in life tend to blend more than they did when we were a young person compared to an older person.


angelabetter
Iam 28, he is 43.
I can not imagine being together with somebody who is my own age.
I find guys in my age very childish and still unexperienced.


Trouble
My husband is 23 and I am 20. SO only 3 years. My parents are 6 years apart in age so not really a big deal.

I dated a guy that was 11 years older than me had kids that were teens & younger we got along fine but his so i thought ex wife would do anything in her power to keep us apart including saying one of the kids ran away when they were with her just to get him to her house & yes he stayed & came home with hickeys (numerous) yes that relationship was over after 6 months & he had prewarned me that any relationship he had prior to me was ruined by her & told me it wouldnt happen to us well what ever it did. but other than that age doesnt matter


Rachel
8 years - I'm 28, he's 36. It has not made any kind of difference. We've been married 1 year and together for a total of 3 years. It's been great!! Love him!


shysheila
it doesn't make any difference... my husband 27 and I'm 34....that's 7 years.... my husband told me that I don't look my age. I still get carded everywhere we go. My husband takes pride of it. I'm happy and so does he.

6 Year difference. but I don't notice it either. We have the same temperaments and personality and are on par decision wise.


Baby Girl 24
there is a 2 months shy of a 2 year difference between my fiance and I...He's the older one....I don't think that age matters if you love each other then there is not problem with age......

Now if you are like 14,15,16 i dont think that you should be with some one that is 19,20,21,22..ect...i dont think that's right

18 years !! Sadly after 16yrs together it went wrong, it never mattered then when it got to him being 53 and me being 35, it really started to hit us. Sad but true. But no regrets!

aoinerekai
thats an odd combo, but as long as it works.usually younger men havent matured enough yet so its hard to deal with. anyway
