Age Gap Couples

I am! We are sixteen years apart and you could not tell. He looks young for his age so people do not really know either. We get along better and have more interests than my ex-husband and I (and we were only three years apart).

At first, some people had a problem with it, but they were still supportive of us. There were a couple who looked at me and did not think I would last, but they have come around too. Most of my family thought I would date older after my marriage too so they were more surprised by his nationality than age!! (Not in a bad way, but more they did not see that as “my type.”) You will always have that and just ignore them because at the end of the day, you go home with him, not them!

I am only 3 months older than my fiance. However, my parents have a 16 year age difference. I've had questions and comments of people mistaking my dad for my grandfather for my whole life. I pay it no mind. My parents have been happily married for over 30 years. After a certain point, age is just a number.

We're only 6 years apart but I look super young. when we first started dating people questioned him by asking if I was old enough for him to date. ( I was 18 he was 24) I'm now 23 and people still give us weird looks because of how young I look. ( most people think I'm 14 or 16 years old )

My FH and I are 10 years apart. We had more judgment when we first got together. Its been 8 years now so everyone is basically used to it now. Plus I used to tell people that when he was 18 and I was 8 that he was my babysitter. That's not true at all but I loved to see the reactions when I told people that.

Wow, I’m 12 years younger than my FH as well. We’ve been together for about 4 years. We haven’t gotten any looks because he looks much younger for his age.
His parents were weary of me, especially his mom. They thought I was going to be immature and irresponsible because their other children and grandchildren are. They soon realized that I’m overall mature (only exception is when I’m super upset) lol and that I’m very responsible with my finances (haven’t asked my parents for money since I was 15). Heck, I have better credit than my fiancé.

There are 14 years difference between my FH and myself. We have been together for 9 years and have a 2.5 year old daughter together. We sometimes get weird looks but we ignore them.

My FH and I are 7 years apart. He's 22 and I'm 29. Our birthdays are also 2 days apart which we both got weirded out a bit after finding that out lol. No one could ever tell there's an age gap cause I still have a baby face myself and I don't really care to act my age for the most part At first it was hard for me because he's only a few months younger than my little brother.

My ex-husband and I are 3 years apart but that relationship was just all kinds of toxic. My FH is the greatest thing that's ever happened to me and I could care less who doesn't approve. I had one "friend" GRILL me about the age gap, brought up how my last relationship worked out (sarcasm) and pretty much told me to run because it wasn't a good idea. There's always going to be people that look down on SOMETHING!

I am extremely happy for you guys and you deserve nothing but all great things. Your wedding is going to be just as beautiful as the bond between the two of you have. As long as you guys have that, there's nothing else in the world that should matter ESPECIALLY other people's opinions on YOUR relationship!

My fiancé is 15 years older than me, and we work perfectly together. Neither one of us look our age, so people know he’s older but never guess our ages and are always surprised of the difference. I’m probably the one who makes the most comments about it, and say we picked the date 2/2/2020 for our wedding so he doesn’t forget (haha). Don’t let people bother you. If they want to judge, they’re going to find something to criticize no matter what.

Sorry you’re going through that. My hubby & I are 11 years apart but maybe because we’re older, nobody notices. 🥴

I'm more than 6 years older than FH (but I have a baby face and no one believes me). It's not usually a big deal, mostly just cultural touchstones, and I have a smidge more life experience.

Honestly? I'm being a TINY bit petty about it in a few ways. We're getting married *right* before his 30th birthday, and I occasionally joke about that, and I sent in an announcement to my high school's biannual magazine, wherein I mentioned FH's high school graduation year... 6 years after mine.

Age is just a number. You're both consenting adults, and it's no one else's business!

I’m 10 years older than my FH! But you wouldn’t know it. I look younger than I am and he acts older than he is, so it works. We met at work and have known each other for 5 years. Been together for over 2 years. At first people would make little comments but they stopped now that they have seen us together and realize that we work great together. Our families and friends are both really happy for us. My mom cried when he asked permission to propose and his mom squealed like a little girl when we told her that we were engaged because she was so excited. Don’t worry about what other people say-only you two know what’s right for your relationship. It’s more of a shock to people and typically people are negative/skeptical. Overtime you will just become a couple to them rather than the focus being on the age gap.

As long as your both legal consenting adults I see no issue. Some people are just mean. My grandaddy and granny were 13 years apart and they were married for 55 years!

My FH is 8 years older than I am. He looks younger though so we don't get any looks which helps. I do tease him once in awhile about robbing the cradle, but then he teases me back about being younger.

My FH is 17 years older then I am, but you'd never guess by looking at us! All that really matters is that we love each other. Of course, it still bothers me sometimes when people are judgmental, but I am learning to just brush it off. As for the vendors, I don't think I've told any of them of our age gap, it hasn't seemed to be necessary! You both just do you, as long as you are happy and in love, ignore the rest! I wish you both the best!

We are 13 years apart and the judgement is super annoying. Most times I just lie about his age or just say "oh he's a bit older". I'm not ashamed, its just annoying like people want an explanation of why I would be with someone that much older. He definitely doesn't look his age but he does have a 9 yr old daughter and some people think we are sisters lol.

I am! We are 10 years apart. I am in my late twenties. It hasn't been hard because my FH doesn't look his age and it's nobody's business anyway. Good luck to you are your FH.

My FH and I are 10 years apart. When we first started dating, people asked us about it, but it hasn’t been an issue since then. I’m sorry that people are judging your relationship. As long as you guys are both consenting and happy, then live your best lives!

H and I are 23 years apart (he’s older) I was 22 when we started dating, and we’ve been together for 8 years. We’ve never received any type of judgement or negativity from anyone ever. It’s always just been a non-issue. If anyone has ever had an opinion on it they’ve kept it to themselves, which is fine by me.

FH is 20 years older. We have been together for 6 years and we have a great relationship. There have been some inappropriate comments made in the past by both sides of the family but we just ignore it.

We are 15 years apart, he is 33 I am 48, we are so incredibly compatible Best relationship we have every been in. I honestly never knew it could be this good!! I am so excited to have forever with him.
