Is 20 and 32 too big of an age gap?

like the subject states is it too weird? We both really like eachother and we don't think anything of it but my friends think it isn't normal for a young and pretty girl such as myself to be falling for a 32 year old man . He looks like hes 25 though !! Advice please...

    Normal, i'm 23 and my fiance` is 33, we have so much in common and we both enjoy doing the same things. We encourage each other to achieve great things, as long as you're and adult and happy with him screw age.

    Men mature much slower than women, so 32 sounds a little young...perhaps you should look into a 50 year old. Good Luck!

      I am 33, my ex girlfriend is 16. (Legal where I am) (Lesbians btw)

      We parted only because she didn't have the time for a relationship. (Studies and work)

      We had the most normal, happy relationship you can imagine. We shared friends, went out.. lived life perfectly normally. Almost a perfect TV relationship.

      I look early 20's, she looked about 19.. No fuss.

      It can work quite well if the needs are met of both and nobody is being used. Often such relationships are very uneven, but not always.

    Well, what I can say. I am 38, and my wife of 10 years is 27.

    Age gap providing both parties are of consenting age should not be an issue.

    The main reason mixed age relationships do not work is lack of shared interests and activities.

    I personally wouldn't go out with a man 10 years older or over, but that's just me. I think it is normal though. If you love eachother and the age gap doesn't bother you, just go with it.

      Well, ANYONE choosing Zac Efron over George Clooney has to have something wrong with them.

    Age doesnt matter as long as your over 21 Both partners need to be mature enough to know themselfs well enough and mature enough to understand how they feel

    my mom and step dad were 11 years apart, (my step dad being older) and till the day my mom died, they would always love each other, walk down the street holding hands like two real romantics, age is but a number. if 2 ppl are in love, what the hell does age matter!!!

    Of course it's fine. If you like each other that's all that counts. I choose to be with the one I love and couldn't be happier. I'm 22 he's 48 and just moved in together.
    Don't believe anybody who tells you different girl.

    My father is 20 yrs older than my mother, my mom keeps my dad feeling young and they look great together. Most loving couple ever!

    my husband is 40 and I am 23. I don't think age is that big of a deal. I think it is just not "normal" to society so many people don't understand at first but they will get over it shortly.

    Look, my late wife was 17 when we met, and I was 34. We were married for almost 10 years before she passed away and I couldn't believe that I could have had a better wife. Sure there were certain challenges that would have been easier to overcome had we been closer in age but we were committed to working them out and went into the marriage with the attitude that divorce was not an option.

    If you get along and are willing to make a commitment that is stronger than the piece of paper, GO FOR IT! I believe you can make it IF you are willing to learn from other couples who have been happily married for more than 20 years how to work through the challenges that will arise.

    Who cares what others think?
    A match is a match.
    Maybe it works out, maybe not.
    But other people's opinions are like rear ends.
    They stink.

    I think the older you get, less age matters. My mom recently remarried to someone 11 years older than her, and I know friends with parents 17 years apart. Age doesn't matter (unless you're 15 and 25...different and wrong) If you're attracted to him, and he you, you should give it a try. If something else comes up and it does pertain to age (kids, job, and the like) it's not because of age, it's because he has lived life to the fullest. if you have an issue with those things, thats when you should step away, not simply because of his age.

    Are you kidding? 32 is young.
    People in their early 20s think people over 30, are sooooo old, but they're not at all.
    Maturity can be found and NOT FOUND...IN PEOPLE OF ALL AGES.
    What is earned through time is life experience. One cannot avoid that.
    Some young people have lived 9 lives and endured many trials and problems but they still haven't lived the number of years as an older person.

    If it feels right just don't worry. If your just worried about what other people will think then don't!

  • Its not the years so much. Its the values, interests, emotional maturity, life experiences, shared goals etc. that matter most IMO.

    it's not too big, no gap is too big, so long as you've got sufficient interests in common and you're happy with each other. that's all that counts.

    You're old enough to decide for yourself what is valuable to you in a relationship. If he makes you happy and you genuinely don't care about the age differential, I'd say go for it and tell your friends to shut the fuck up.

    i think as long as you click....age doesnt matter...

    unless one of the people is under 18...like a 15 year old dating a 19 YEAR OLD

    or the gap is more than 15 years.... like a 20 year old dating a 90 year old... thats nasty

      I don't think small gaps such as between a 15 yo girl and a 19 yo boy are wrong just because law says that one is underage and the other is not.
      It is totally normal in this case too; I wonder about when you was 15... I remember my 15: the cutiest babes of the school and other girls (among these, the one I liked) were dating guys between 17-21. It was, and it is, totally normal; likely many of them frequented the same school, but were in a "older" class.
      It could be strange or weird, but not so wrong or bad (depending on people) when a 15 yo girl dates a man having, say, 30 or more.
      From a legal point of view, it is enough to wait 3 years (in many countries) before doing complete sexual intercourse...

    he is just an old perv trying to score some young gash.it makes him look cool in the eyes of his friends.

    guys always want to fuck someone younger than themselves and the older we get the younger the chicks get we want to fuck.
