Let's discuss the topic of age difference in relationships- friendships (same sex or different sex), dating, and marriage specifically. How big of an age gap is too big? What is ideal? What is unthinkable? Does age really matter? Isn't maturity a better thing to base such relationships on ( Read more... )

oOSKWERTOo (10:36:37 PM): i would say, that age doesnt matter too much, as long as you're both on the same level

*comments*

yea, i mean, if maturity levels match, and there is a healthy bond and balanced realationship, what does age matter?

some people grow up faster
some people mature slower

its all mentality.

It is a little important, you don't want to be in a relationship with someone so much older than you that they could be your parent, you aren't going to be treated equally if you are, it's just not possible. But say someone Zak's age, he obviously is still on the same maturity level as us... I do think age is kind of important though,

Re: _jennabug_ February 13 2004, 04:51:21 UTC

Yah, I definitely agree with you on the old enough to be your parent thing... That is just incredibly wrong! I've met a few ladies through scrapbooking whom are stepmothers to children just five or six years younger than them. Come on... That just isn't cool!

Now... The hotness of Johnny Depp on the other hand... ;)

And yes, I agree about Zak as well. Good example.

you cant put an age on maturity

Re: _jennabug_ February 13 2004, 04:51:58 UTC

age does not equal maturity. you are correct.

Age doesn't matter the same way nothing else matters... You have to make your own decision on that sorta thing. It only matters to those parties involved.

Nevertheless, I do have a personal opinion on the matter. I've had relationships with older guys from all sorts of age ranges (1-10 years older). When everything was said and done, I felt uncomfortable with the age ranges because the lower maturity level of the more older guys (5-10 years) made me sad.

When I am 30, I want other 30 year olds to be interested in me. I don't want to find myself only able to connect with 20 year olds.

It would be nice to be 20 and be able to relate to more 20 year olds... I don't know why, but for some reason, I feel like I can usually relate to people a tad bit older than most other 20 year olds. I do think that has a lot to do with the fact that I am not currently attending school, I work full time, and have all sorts of adult-like responsibilites that a lot of other 20 year olds don't have. I also don't actually spend much time with many people right around my age with the exception of the girls I work with, Erin, and yourself.

Oh, and... Curtis called.
