"Samantha Booth was 21 and working behind a bar at her local pub in Glasgow, when Martin, a man nineteen years her senior, walked into her life."
"Martin, a truck driver, now 54, was a regular in the pub Samantha had begun working in after moving home following a trip to America, and the pair were introduced by her brother".

Common story, age difference.
Doesn't bother either of us one little bit.
It did seem to bother a couple of my friends initially. But that was their problem not mine.
I think the only time age difference ever came to my mind was when we first met, and I did have a few fleeting moments thinking my chances might not the best.
Soon forgot those, the chemistry was there almost immediately.
I think psychological age and outlook much more important than physical ages or how we look.
Just sharing my opinion.
Only the jealous and small-minded see it as a problem.
There are far more important things in life for people to be concerning themselves about.
As the lady in the report says 'people are people'.
If such relationships are happy and fulfilling for both partners, then it has sod all to do with any other busybodies....whose own relationships with their contemporaries may have only lasted a few short miserable years anyway.
I agree with you two chaps. It did bother me at first but looking back I really have had no issues at all, anyway.
There is a gap betweem my wife and I, but I really don't care and nor does she, although she ribs me about it sometimes.
If others have a problem then it is tough. I think a compatability is far more important and that we love eachother. I think it comes down to jealousy and lack of sight from the 'haters'. I think this argument comes into the same category as those who think we have 'Thai brides'
idiots
If you want your dreams to come true ...... first you have to wake up
I thought this age gap story was of special interest as it involved an all British couple......Originally Posted by Steve.r

Yes, that IS more unusual.
Different rules if you're rich...

I'm heavily troubled by the 9 year age difference between my wife and I. She is older then me, but looks younger!! grrrrrr.
Hmm ...... mighty midget, Bernie Ecclestone's missus doesn't look too enamoured, though, DOES she? And no wonder ... !
If the new couple are attracted to each other, than that’s the first important step, none of anyone else’s business
If it’s a Brit man and a younger beautiful Filipina then it’s his ex wife who might be most jealous
Mick.
Aye ...*Rupert Murdoch's Chinese wife was probably "press"-ganged into the public eye. But ... given the certainty of his limited lifespan - not to mention his vast wealth - she has decided to
and *"bear" it!
Makes no difference imo
If you want your dreams to come true ...... first you have to wake up
Is she much taller than him? I thought she might be on a step or something...Hmm ...
Yes, he's about 5'3".
Another famous age-gap couple....and that famous question:
Talking about age gap, I was bit annoyed yesterday when we went to waitrose to shop for some bits, the old lady cashier was looking at me insanely then she looked at my husband, I don't know what's her problemso I just ignored it, our age difference is 20 so that might freaked her out
But I don't care really as we've been together for nearly 5 years, I just have to get used to these people who can't accept the fact that age really doesn't matter.
Yes, he's about 5'3".
Another famous age-gap couple....and that famous question:
Classic
I'd really forgotten that. Still just as funny
..................................Hmm ......
... maybe the 'Grand Prix'the BIG attraction!
Stunning costume....Yes, he's about 5'3".
Another famous age-gap couple....and that famous question:
I dont get that problem as every other cashier is a Filipina......Talking about age gap, I was bit annoyed yesterday when we went to waitrose to shop for some bits, the old lady cashier was looking at me insanely then she looked at my husband, I don't know what's her problem
Also, Mrs Lastlid loves the self service checkout anyway.....
If I was there I would have to say something...like " yes, am I a lucky guy".
Accompanied by my normal big schoolboy grin.
... which is CONSIDERABLY more than can be said for their respective husbands ...Stunning ....... *they're *no'

One of my best Mates was on holiday years ago in the Canary Islands, just divorced from his ex gold digger of a wife. Having a quiet beer at the bar, asked for a light for his smoke off a cute 17 year old German girl. Got chatting. 10 years on they are married, have a lovely kid and a business together, she is 27 and my Mate 59! Happy as Larry. Good on 'em!!
i just been to court to get acces to see my kids and they kept going on about the age bettween me and her saying it was wrong that she going out with someone my age if i could have said what i wanted i would be locked up nowss think they know it all
There is a 15yr age gap between me & my wife & we couldn't be happier
AN HAPPY WIFE IS A HAPPY LIFE
That's not good.
That isi just been to court to get acces to see my kids and they kept going on about the age bettween me and her saying it was wrong that she going out with someone my age if i could have said what i wanted i would be locked up now
If I'm not allowed to discriminate against homosexuals, etc etc etc, I'm also entitled to marry whomsoever I wish, as long as they are of legal age.
At least we're from opposite sexes !
That's like my first [late] wife and I. She was 5 years older than me ... but - being petite & dainty - looked younger.
