    Age gap in relationships

    Hi

    Just out of curiosity would a 15 year age gap be thought of as crazy or weird.

    Do any of the pinoy ladies have any comment about this.

    Any advice ?

    Thanks

    Nigel

    Keith and I have a 15 years age gap (he's 48 and I'm 33). No problems at all.

    I had similar thoughts until my first trip there, but doesn't seem to be a problem.

    I've met quite few English women who are don't mind age gaps of more than 20 years with their partners/husbands. Its all in your head Worthingmale. As long as you and your special someone are happy being together and the relationship is working, the age gap is immaterial.. now don't you have that look when you are following a lady driving and didn't know which corner to turn..lol

    16 years difference between my Filipino wife and I.

    Don't worry about it. As long as you are both happy and respect each other like. That's what matters.

    They'll find out one day Les, but if you are happy together don't worry about it and just cross the bridges as you come to them. Good luck to both of you

    Age is only a measurement of time.

    Our body clock is individual to all of us, we all age at different paces

    You sure 43 isn't a slip of the keyboard? To look at your photo I would have put you both around the same age, that being on the younger side

    I only find it a problem when I'm trying to dance at parties (dance like an old man now) then after a few drinks I don't care and carry on anyway.

    19 years between us and been together for 26 years. Dee is getting more aches and pains then me now.

    Stewart I must thank you for your complimentary comment, it isn't the first time people have passed similar comments and when it happens face to face I don't really know the best way to react. But thank you again, much appreciated!

    5 years difference between me and my fiancé., he's 33yrs. old and I'm 27 BUT to be honest sometimes he acts as if he's the younger one..

    "Who says love can't cross the age gap?"
