Age Gap Relationships

[Cub2263]

Anyone been in a significant age gap relationship/know people in one? I'm 35 years younger than my partner, would be nice to hear about others' experiences.

my ex boyfriend was 23 years older than me. The age gap was not an issue in our relationship

I dated a guy a couple of years ago and he was 14 years older than me. We were together for a year and the relationship broke for other reasons, but not the age gap. It was never a problem in our relationship.

My boyfriend is 15 years older than me.
It's not a problem in most of the time… but I don't believe it's not a problem at all. U know... there will always be a moment to "feel" this gap and the distance between.

Unfortunately my experience has been different to the posters who have replied so far. I've found it has always been an issue - notably that the guys I've dated (3 guys, average around 10 year age gap) simply haven't been ready to settle down or be monogamous. It makes sense, and I definitely don't resent them for it, but it is definitely something I've noticed that ultimately ended two out of the three relationships (and has prevented some other potentials from even starting).

Been having sex with guys thrice my age since I was 16; any dick's a dick.

45 years difference once… or twice.

I think age should not matter as long as both are committed to each other and understand each other  :hug:
