Does ages really matter in relationships?

[stephylarde]

I think ages here always matter. A woman must not be much older than a man, but a man should not be too old for a female. I think the gap in both cases (maximum) is 10 years.

Maturity is a serious factor in relationships, and I would like to point out that it is not nessacarily determind by age. For example, a fifty-year-old and a twenty-year-old could be in a relationship and at the same maturity level. If you're in a relationship with a guy or girl that takes advantage of you or abuses you, it makes no difference what you're situation is, they'll do that no matter what, and that's not a good person to be in a relationship with anyway. Anyone can have emotional baggage, it's not just older people. A younger person can be at a higher emotional level than the older person, and have more emotional baggage. That "dominant partner" struggle is present in any relationship-whether the partner is smarter, more mature, or older, there's one in every relationship. They just have to overcome it. Relationships with age gaps are very common these days. The way you were raised just determines if you accept it or not. Love is the only factor that should really matter in relationships.
So, in conclusion, age does not matter in relationships. The only determining factor is love and happiness. And for us to say it is wrong for a 45-year-old to be married to a 23-year-old is wrong. It is not our place for us to judge them just as it is not our place to judge two married people that are different races.

Maybe it does or maybe it does not. Because it totally depends on mentality what they carry about such relationship. If they think we can manage by support ourselves then yes ages does not matter. If their heart feels same about their opinion that there are no problems ages dies not matter. Or if they think opposite then ages matter.

i think ages is doesn't matter in the relationship because its depends how each other to think in different situation.Being matured is not base on age its about how they think ^_^

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?

For me, love is just a number when it comes to love. Age gap is not a big deal if two hearts understands and know how to value each other, I believe that there won't be any problem. It always depends upon the maturity level of a person. What important it both hearts would be able to know the importance of each other and if they aren't hurting anybody.

For your question "If if matters if men dated younger women"? It doesn't matter, because men do date younger women, what matters is ow old the man and woman is, imagine a 50 year old man dating a 18 year old woman,.. now that would seem inappropriate ,

How much age gap,? i would say 10 years..

It doesn't matter as long as they both know that they doing the right thing and they truly love each other. As long as the individual knows his/her decision is right, age doesn't matter. Let's say there's a two guy courting a one girl, the other guy is same as her age and the other is 10-15years older than her, she love the one who's older than to her, she makes a choice and she follows her heart without doubting the distance of their ages.

[WillowEvul]

It does not. I have had affairs with men 20 years older than me, and a boy that was only 21 (I was 37 that time). So it does not. Both of the relationships did not work out because of the geographical locations, however, age was not an issue at all. Now, my husband is 3 years younger than me, but we don't feel that different because we think and behave similarly.

I believe, that what matters in relationships is a mutual understanding. If it exists, the rest will easily follow! 

[step2018]

I believe that age is not an impediment to love, but one must understand that difference can be a negative factor if the couple is not mature. If the couple is mature, regardless of age, the coexistence will be harmonious and the possible difficulties related to the age difference will not become a problem.

[dammjoshconcept]

Yes, age has a lot to do with relationship. You need to be more matured enough to handle some situations. As a matter of fact as you grow older you have a lot of experiences regarding relationship

[Jikalau]

Age wont be a problem as long as you love each other. As long as there is love age wont be a problem. It is never a requirement in a relationship.

it's true dev, if you love each other and understand each other then the age factor will not determine a relationship.
because love does not look at the age fakor, a good relationship is to understand each other.

[yesyes18]

Age is just a number, age isn't maturity.  Provided an individual is matured, he/she can be in a relationship regardless of his age.

[Anonaneadone]

They say, age is just a number. For me, it is true. So what, if your partner is older than you? So what if your partner is younger than you? Never get affected by the negative thoughts that surrounds you. Fight for your love. They have nothing to say but to degrade your relationship. They want to ruin your relationship. Disregard them. Ignore them. They're just a waste of time. As long as you love each other, no matter how big is your age gap, fight for the relationship against others. Make them believe that age doesn't really matter in the name of love.

[Timok Abiodun]

WELL...

it kinda does, because maturity is needed in a relationship, and age comes with experience. sometimes you could be older and never have maturity.
but age brings along so much experiences and could be converted to maturity. which in turn could be helpful in a relationship.

[Yalovtsev]

Particularly well if you are not 13 years!As modern society relationship begins with 15 years among young people,and generally gaining momentum after 20 years,and as they say love knows no age,but of course if you are not a current 70 years

[Md. Sarwar Hosain]

I think it does not a matter. There is no ages which can obstacle in a relationships. If you envisage a partner who is smaller or larger than you, you can better bringing out some things to see if you have a future with that person or not.

No! It is not the age that makes a person fall in love with each other but with their uniqueness that fits to every individual expectation. What makes a person to fall in love is by the act of an honesty and display the truthfulness of a man/woman. But most of the time we see couples that  both are in the same age, very rare to see a couple that one of them is under under age it is not because of the age but because love is always favor for fairness.

Many people thinks that if men and women age's different's is not 4,5 years they can't be compromised them.but it is wrong think. If they has lot of love's I think they no needs anything without it.Love is blind.Love is life.so in relationship's ages does not matter.

Age is just a number for me to date with a younger man has no issue for me because it truly depends how strong enough  your relationship was.. like us.. i married a younger man  im so much proud of him because he is much more responsible on bringing up things that make a relationship work.We supported each other in any ways financially ,emotionally,physically and mentally..I can say that i am happily married with my 2 kids though he is a bit younger than me..we alresdy build a FAMILY no matter what.

Nope... love is not always blind. You think so, because you don't have enough life experience. Once you get to 35-40 years of age, then you will understand. And age will be definitely having an impact.
