Does ages really matter in relationships?

[light22man]

In my opinion if the difference in range 10 years between partners it's ok. You still have a lot in common. And if you really like each other what the matter.

Well I think it says a lot about a person if they specifically date younger people. It would mean that probably that person is not as interested in his mate's maturity as much as other aspects.

There is no rule of course, but if a person dates someone that is a lot younger, it could seem like they are taking advantage of them and they possibly are, even if it unintended.

I personally feel like the 80% younger person has a pretty low possibility to be close to your equal in maturity, but even bellow 90% can be suspicious.
I guess you can see connection between that an IQ, as I believed that once IQ was defined as a maturity compared to age, where 100 means 1:1 ratio.
There is only a very small percent of population bellow 80 percent of IQ and they are classified as having border-line deficiency.

The point is that it isn't really fair to the less mature person to be in a relationship with someone quite more mature then them.
The wiser person in a relationship could quite possibly take charge and get his/her way even in the best intention.
Certain equality between the couple seems to be quite necessary, but there are of course many people in many different situation in their life, so making any quick judgments could be unfair.

Basically Age should not matter because If you getting a partner who understand you and love you more than anyone, so it wont matter if she is younger or older than that of you......

Sure, but my point was that that is unlikely and is a bad sign.

So if i am 40 and dating a 28years old girl, that can be a case of taking advantage of another?
What of females who naturally prefer dating older male. who is taking advantage of who?

It can be taking advantage. Not saying it has to be, but very likely, at least unintentionally, in most cases.
I think you know the answer to this one. Just because someone wants something, doesn't mean that it is best for them.
Young people make mistakes and when older people know it and still agree to be part of it, it isn't really a good deed.

in a relationship there must be maturity in thinking, and age did not always show the maturity of someone in thought. so I think age is not important in a relationship.

[SamboNZ]

Yes, sometimes age does matter for it gives you the maturity you need to better handle your relationship, sometimes people think that age is only a number but if you look at it how can you really love someone who can't act in his/her age, to be mature enough to understand you or how can you act to be like your partner who is much more mature than you.

Age might not really matter but maturity does.

Age signifies so much more than just a number: it can reflect your maturity, your stage in life, and your experience.  At the same time, age can be deceptive.Does  it matter if men date younger women? If so, how much of an age gap is an acceptable one?

In my own opinion, i think age is just but a number and i think maturity is not dependant on age. In a relationship between a male and a female, i think the man should be older, while the woman younger, reason based on the fact that God created man far before creating woman.

Maturity doesn't reflect in people's age. For its just a number. A lot of older people are immature and there are younger ones who are otherwise. In relationships, its not good in the eyes of society for an older man or women to be with a younger one, but as long as they're both mature enough to know their roles, i think age doesn't matter.

Age doesn't matter when it comes to love. What important is maturity and deeper understanding on your relationship. As long as you're responsible and prepared enough to handle a relationship, I think that's enough. But these days couples who has 10 to 30 years age gap is being judge by the society. Some people can't understand their intimate relationship. Love is designed by God without specific age stated. We can love freely and age I think is not a qualification.

No aged does not matter as long you loved each other and you don't hurt anyone thers no problem with that...love no boundaries it is not determine on your gender and your aged...

[Jenits]

I believe the said that age doesnt matter.. If u truelly love some one dont lo0k for them age.. Look for the heart. Age is just a number.. But if you are trully love a person you dont see anything like them age.

[Mad7Scientist]

Personally I say as long as it is legal and consentual I see no problem with letting individuals do what they want.

What happens if your Country goes all out Communist and women aren't allowed to marry before age 25 and the man is not allowed to be more than 2 years older than the woman?

[tuliobrothers]

Age doesn't matter as long you are both inlove and responsible for every decision that you make, age doesn't matter anymore.

[Kazuyukie]

no i don't think so, when love is genuine age doesn't really matter, after all age is just a number, though you need to be careful specially when you're aguy and you're partner is under age.

[umrohyuk]

sometimes. As far as relationships go, it can get complicated.  Age signifies so much more than just a number: it can reflect your maturity, your stage in life, and your experience. for me, the age gap is between 6-7 years. more than those years is not acceptable for me.

[Kimliyo0107]

“The heart wants what the heart wants” is a cliché that couldn't be more accurate. We truly can't help with whom we fall in love. Love doesn't care if someone is older or younger, but we certainly do
Society holds a negative stigma regarding age differences, which causes people to obsess over it. And, that is why when we start developing feelings for people outside of our age brackets, we think our feelings are wrong.

[budaybuday]

Sometimes we don't choose who we fell in love with, they may be younger or older than us. It doesn't really matter for me. Maybe the society doesn't really agree when you date someone much older or younger than you, but just because they don't agree about your relationship it means it's wrong. We just need to stop being affected about what the other people say. It's your heart, it's your life. Not theirs.

ages doesn't really matter in relationship like me i marry a man 10 years behind and it is much more happier and exciting year and year goes by. when you really love somebody or someone show it. because love is blind.

Well for me i think age really matter in a relationship because you need to think like a mature person so that you know how to handle a relationship. It really matters the age of a person so that both of you will know how to be responsible and even too many struggles you can be strong to face it.

Age is significant in a relationship, but what's more important is the maturity of the parties invovled in a relationship. Decision making is vital which is the result of maturity.

Age doesn't matter in any form of relationship, as long as you accept to one another from weakness to negative behavior, love must still be remain in relationship as well. As long as they are both mature in life age doesn't matter at all.
