My fiance is 15 years older than me. He certainly doesn't act as though he's that much older than me though... And he has said that I don't particularly act my age either! We have absolutely no problems and I don't predict any either :D

Luckily, I am only 3 1/2 months older than my fiancee. But I'm curious if the age difference is a problem for other couples. I know, as long as you love your partner nobody should care about the age :thumbs: But we all know that's not always the case...

I am 5,5 years older than my husband. sometimes I notice small differences, since I already lived on my own for 10 years, before the marriage and we temporarily had to live my mother-in-law after me coming to the US.

Which is a huge adjustment for me having a parent around most of the free time and the house is small.

Even if she tries not too, she still tells him what to do and that's annoying. :hehe:

And we don't have much privacy which disturbs me more than I want to.

DH is seven years older than me, and it's not a problem at all except when he talks about the 70s - what the heck do I know about stuff that happened when I was a little kid? lol The only weird thing is that he's the 'baby' in his family and his siblings are 20 years older than him (so my sisters-in-law are the same age as my parents...) I love them, but I have absolutely nothing in common with them...
