Age gap in relationships

To me it doesn’t matter once the younger aged person is in their 30s

I personally couldn’t do more than 10 but then I know a good few in my parents generation with 20 year age gaps that have worked out great!

I don’t think the gap matters I think the ages they met matters.

I think it really depends on the age. A 60yo and 80yo is way different than 20yo and 40yo.

I believe almost all age gaps are problematic. As little as 5 years is still too much sometimes.

I personally wouldn’t go more than 5 years either side for relationship. For just sex then possibly 10 years younger and 15 years older

When one of the people is a minor and the other isn’t.

Personally I think anything more than 10 years is disturbing.. Even if the younger person is in their 30s+ it's still weird to me to be with someone so much older than you

lol why?

10 maybe 15 for me, if they are 20 years older than me they are older than my parents!!!! Not to mention I was 2 when they were 20….

Personal relationships 5 years max, but 10 years max in others before I’m judging 🙈 🤣 It also really depends on when they met and started the relationship, cause even very small age gaps can be problematic if there’s a teen involved 😬

For the most part i dont really care its their life but it just seems weird to sign up for them dying a good while before the other person. Like if its a 50 & 30 theres a decent chance that relationship would only last 10/15 years. Or like if it does last 40 the then 70 year old might be missing them for another 20.

I don't necessarily think the ages themselves matter, I think it's more dependent on the individual people and their relationship.

At my age I’d find even 10 years difference too much. Being with someone either 20 or 40 sounds like such a different stage/generation, there’s no appeal there for me

10 years max in theory, but I also agree with

I’m with all age gap relationships make me uncomfortable! And it doesn’t matter if the ppl are both adults. So with that being said I think 4 years is appropriate, like think of it as a high school or college career, so when someone is not ur “peer” that’s when age gaps relationships start to get sketchy

I don’t think there is any issue with age gaps as long as they are both adults and not minors

Depends on the age/stage in life. My mom and stepdad are 9 years apart. They both had kids in college and high school when they got together and had been previously married for a couple of decades. They were in their 40s and 50s, so the gap doesn’t seem like a big deal. Had they been 29 and 20… a little different haha.

it’s honestly weird. My mother in law is in her 50’s and her husband is in his mid-late 30’s… He’s just about almost the same age as my brother in law (my husband’s older brother)..

Same.. As far as I know and see, they don’t sleep in the same room or bed. She’s in the living room, he’s in the room. They have different finances. If she’s short on electricity bill or needs help paying. Who does she go to? My sister in law (husband’s only sister). He plays video games, he pays for internet and I’m not even sure if he’s paying other bills as that mostly falls on my mother in law. They barely go anywhere together . My mother in law is always going to places without him. Example: for the last 5 years of my son’s birthday party, he’s only attended 1-2 times, maybe.

Okay, interesting perspective.
