What is your Age Difference Limit for a Relationship? |
|||
|
I will start this off by saying that in my case which is 20+ years in age difference that I never really intended the relationship to become anything more than friends. We were just friends for almost 5 years although she liked me for More than a friend for 3 years and said nothing as she waited on me. She finally said something. I know I never would have. He father is 29 years older than her mother. Her culture is different and thus the views are different. As time went on I realized we had a lot more in common then I thought. We are both creative. We both like to write. Photography and Travel are our hobbies. She enjoys reading books. I enjoy doing research online. She is very domestic as am I. Anyway it works for us. She keeps me young too.

I prefer older men. If a guy is younger and better looking than me...forget it! Plus he must be willing to live in Beautiful British Columbia, be financially secure, want to father my children, and let me have my Independence......now you know why I am single....but thanks for asking.  Isaiah 42:8 " I am the Lord; that is my name! And My glory I will not give to another, nor My praise to graven images."

Dennis, I had thought that no more than ten years. When I met Ian, he was 10 years older than me. It was him that struggled more than I did. We both don't think about it much now, and like Thomas we don't think that it is too much of an issue when the Lord has brought two people together. By the way, how much older are you than Mercy? Blessings, Lou & Ian The body of Christ is like a patchwork quilt! All stitched together with God's love.

I think 5 to 7 years older and....hmmmm..maybe 1 or 2 younger? I've never dated anyone younger than me. I ACT younger than my wise old 37 years....lol.....That's a tough question. I think it's just different for everyone.

I am 26 years older than Mercy. At first it bothered me. I think it would anyone. Perhaps if I had everhad a daughter I would look at it differently. Like I have said, her father was 29 years older than her mom. He left her for a younger woman when Mercy was 2 years old. 8 kids with one woman and then leaves and has more with another. Geez. I have a baby face as well, so I usually appear much younger untl the last few years when my beard turned on me. She looks younger than her age as well. I know just the salt and pepper relationship is enough but throw in the age thing and people will indeed say things.

Well...I have been on both sides of the spectrum. I was with someone a who was younger than I was...and it didnt work. I was with someone who was 20 years older than I was...and it didnt work. The age doesnt make the person...the person makes the age. One person said that if GOD is in the relationship from the very beginning...who is looking at age? The marriage is secure and that is all that matters. Cheers Katt

hi Katt... good points
| ||
|
I think age may well be irrelevant when it comes to intellect and maturity. However, I do draw the line where someone is old enough to be my dad or young enough to be my son!

I think those are valid points. Around the world things are much different.
