   Love is free from boundaries of caste, age, religions, country. It is pure as God's prayer. Once you fall in love this hostile world around you looks more beautiful.
   
   So once u fell in Love with someone who loves u too then age, caste, religion does not matter. May be he/she is older or elder if it is true love then one will definitely marry him/her.

   I believe love does have a limit. The older you get, the closer your life experience and maturity is. If an 18 year old wants to hook up with someone 20 years older it probably wont work. If a 50 year old hooks up with a 70 year old, it may work.

   My parents have a 25 year age difference between them. They have been married for over 25 years. We have had a wonderful family life and always able to work through the normal problems of family life.
   
   My father says the only consideration should be, to realize that when the older partner, most often the man, gets above 60 year of age, there may be considerations that make one partner or the other sad that the age difference exists. The love is still there but, depending on the health of either party, life can become a bit harder.  Basically if the love is there - go for it.

   I don't think so.  There is just too big of an age difference that your life just wouldn't go together that well.  10 years would be my max age difference.

   I know what's on your mind. Most of the people doing that today is just for the sake of money. But there are still some that marries their partner even though they are much older because they love each other.
   
   I will marry that someone even though he is 20 or more years older than me. The feeling of being in love is unexplainable. You have to feel it in order for you to know it. Yes! I will.^_^

    Of course. When you truly fall in love, it is all about making the most of the time you have together. Every moment counts. If you are in love, then the difference in age shouldn't be a big factor. Lots of people marry others close in age and are miserable for a very long time together. When you find a person who can truly make you happy, you don't worry too much about things like age.

    Yes. It depends on what age I am. If I were 18 and think I am in love with someone who is 20 yrs older, the success and retention rate would not be as high if I were 40yrs old, in love with a 60 yr old person. I would have been more settled in my ways, and falling in love with the right person at that age would be more purposeful and fulfilling..

    Yes, I would, and yes I did.....In fact, my husband is 28 years older than I am. We have been together for 19 years and married for 18 of those years. We also have a 15-year old son together. In fact, when it comes to children, we have yours, mine, and ours. All of them are adults except for our son.
    Both of us had been married before. Neither of us was married when we started dating.
    Age is only a number. Will you have ups and downs? Well yes, of course, but who doesn't today. Marriage is about compromise if you truly love each other. I know how people think...and the next thought is there must be money......sorry folks.....no money. I am the bread winner in the family and have been since my husband had to retire when our son was only two. He was Mr. Mom for years. I was very spoiled for years. He did all of the cooking, cleaning, laundry, and yard work. However, the last three years he has been very ill. I work full-time, take care of my husband, and ensure my son is a happy, and well-adjusted teen.
    I'm still here.....didn't run.....didn't find anybody else. Marriage is 'til death do us part'.

    I don't think you can help who you fall in love with...but for me it's difficult to comprehend having something in common with someone a generation older than me AND be attracted to them sexually. I know it's possible because many people have, I just don't see it happening for me. Would I marry them? If I found myself in this position and truly loved that person...yes, I would marry them.

    Well, in my opinion, the idea of been with somebody 20 years older is just disgusting, but by the end of the day, there is really nothing wrong about it.  if somebody is right for you, then he/she is right for you.  It is that simple, disregards to how other people think and feel about it.(Including me, who is getting the creeps, because of it.)

    Love never see the age, caste, money anything, It just happens. It is such a beautiful feeling that no one can feel until or unless he/she fell into it. According to me, if your love is sincere and true then never mind how older he/she is. Just accept him/her.

    I would have to say that it has to do with what stage of life you are both in. I'm sure we've all met that 50 something that's stuck in his 20's (and yes I use "his" because more often than not it's a he).  If you two are both in the same stage of life, then the actual age itself shouldn't matter. You can't put everyone of the same age number in the same mold.
