What's your opinion?

i guess i did not word it right because i think some people think i

am saying that a 16 yearold sould date a 16 year old and a 29

yearolod sould date a 29 yearold and so on...but what i am trying

to say is that the age differece that is "accepted" in todays

society changes as you get older...i am sure there are plenty of

couples who are decades older/younger than the other that are

prefectly happy togrther but i think that the mojority of couples

(in young people) that are waaaay apart in age dont work out.

maybe i am wrong....sorry if i am




ps.......i think Wrinkles is soooooooooooooo cute!!

I always used to say that I wouldn't date anyone Older than my sister. ( 6 years) The older I get the less that number seems to not look quite so important. Maybe b/c I haven't dated anyone for like EVER!
My parent's are 2 1/2 weeks apart! Been married for 35 years.
My grandparents are just a few months to been married for about 65 years and to this DAY my grandma tells my dad she wants to kick grandpa's ass!!! I am not sure if it has been pleasant or not!! But I wouldn't change a thing!

I must have misread them, then. I didn't see anything in this thread beyond people expressing their opinion. Nicely. Politely.

You're right, re-reading the thread I must have been reading something into the posts that wasn't meant to be there. Sorry!

You have all made some very good points. It really depends on the individual. Now that I am a mom, with a daughter who is only a few years away from dating age, I will probably be quite opinionated when it comes to her choice of dates!! I wouldn't want my high school girl dating a college boy, most likely. But when she is out on her own and if she chooses to date someone older, and falls in love, then I will support her.

Heck, my husband is five years younger than I am. I worried about that for about one day when we first started dating!!!! Then, I was fine!!! He still loves to joke about his "older woman", but it is all in fun.
