Is age really just a number?

Ok so I'm currently in love with someone and everything is fine, I'm 21 and he's 35. Brian has been divorced and has two kids from that marriage that are 13 and 15. I honestly didn't expect to fall in love with someone I never met, and the whole age thing hasn't been a factor. He supports my decision to join the military and he is the best single dad I know. I've never told him I love him but we talk about our future together a lot and I really see him being in my life once I get out of basic training. I don't see his age as a factor, or the fact that he has 2 kids and divorced. I really care about him and I see us together and having a family in the near future.

    Age is a number used to indicate the number of years one have lived.

    In your case you have lived 21 years and gained experience from it.

    It also determines the physical state of body because as you are at the prime of your youth which is 21.

    You will be at peak of your potential at 27 and 28 when you will have best physical abilities and more knowledge and experience with a will to accept any challenge.

    When you will be 35 you will be more mature and have more knowledge and experience which will effect your decisions and way you talk. You will be more cool but your physical desires (including taste and adrenaline rush) will decline.

    At 45 you would not like to roam around much and would start losing fun from many things. You will start taking everything more seriously.

    At 55 you will start becoming an old woman and elderly features will start taking over you.

    That's how age works on a person. Personally I wish you stay like you are now for ever. But Brian is in an entirely different phase of age than you are.

    When you will be at best times of your life he may have to work very hard to compliment your youth.

    I just want to convey that age is a very important factor while making an important decision. I suggest you consider it.

    I wish you a very happy life ahead.

      Thank you very much for your opinion, I would like to agree that age is important, when you're in love with someone who treasures you and appreciates you I wouldn't let something like age get in the way. And say we don't work out, I still have a whole life ahead of me (: I'm just living for the now, love makes you do things you never thought you would ever do!

    Age is a process. It's nice that you are learning from this guy, but more than a 4 year age difference means the relationship will very hard to keep going in the long run. For the long term, a 25 year old guy would be much better.

    Sure age is just a number. Just look at all the immature idiots on here that are twice your age. That said, I find it a bit weird that the age gap between his oldest child is smaller than the age gap between you and him. But if everyone is happy, don't worry about what I think or what anyone else says.

    It's normal, there's nothing wrong with wanting a relationship with someone older.

    He's got a lot of baggage for someone as young as yourself. When you hit your sexual prime he'll be hella old.
