OT - what's the age gap?

Big Apple, 7 December, 2011 at 16:49 Posted on Planning 0 68

Following the *outrage*!! In the papers today about that lad from One Direction and that woman who has appeared from nowhere Caroline (receiving a lot of) Flack ...

Whats the age gap between you and your OH?

for us it's 3yrs, now at 27 (me) and 30 (MrApples) it's nothing but at just 16 and 19 my mum raised an eyebrow!

    He's 4 months younger than me.

    And for the 4 months of the year in which I am "older," boy does he let me know about it!

    Well I am 22 and he is 36! So 14 years.

    Its not weird for me, all my friends are around that age. I don't get on with people my age. He was fine with it, but he did worry what his family thought at first. But we love each other, want to spend the rest of our lives together and that is all that matters! No one elses opinions matter.

    Haha - count yourself lucky, I'm also 28 (29 in March) and it's my OH's birthday today... and he's 23yrs [:'(] Gutted that when I turn 30, he'll still be 24 and can technically say he's in his early 20's! So there's 5 and a bit years between us. Nobody really thinks anything of it in either family - although I felt a bit odd when we first got together (I intended it to be a quick fling ? ) as he was 19 and I'd just turned 25 ?

    5 weeks between us. Both will be 38 when we marry. My first husband was 18.5yrs older than me, and tbh it wasn't an issue and certainly not the reason for the marriage breakdown.

    I'm 24, OH just turned 31 and to be honest I am more mature than him! When he moved in with me at the start of this year he was moving out of his parents!!

    Ex was 12 years older and had an ex wife and 2 kids.. we started going out when I was just 18 and when I look back now I feel abit creepy about it - I didn't get much chance to be a teenager (we were together 3.5 years)

    I'm 40 next Week, and Carmen just turned 36.. 4 years isn't a problem here. Its mainly a state of mind thing. 4 years doesn't sound much, but I remember clubbing in the early 90's and she would have been 14..!

    If you're really into each other, age difference is not a problem.

    I'm 25, he's 43. So (for 3 months at anyway) there's 18 years between us.

    Works well for us. He's a stud and I've got a man with plenty of experience ?

    ?

    There's 2 years and 2 and a half months between me and my OH. I'm 21 and he's 23. He doesn't like the fact that he'll be late 20s when we get married lol
