is it ok for a girl to be older than the guy?

i have 2 friend whose wife is about ten years older than them. They are all happy with their families, so i think age does not matter as long as love binds them.

It's all about SCHOOLS. I don't know how your's is but where I live 5th-8th grade is middle school and 9th-12th is high school. Having a high school - middle school relationship is difficult. Also, maturity wise 12 year old boys are a lot less into thinking about serious realtionships than 14 year old girls are-she'd be likely to end up getting hurt. I'd be more worried about THAT than the age differance. I'm 17, turning 18 in March and my boyfriend is 16 turning 17 in June and we're extremely happy together but I've already graduated high school (graduated early at 16) and he's a mature individual....so it's less about age, more about maturity. Maybe they could try being good friends for now and see where that goes?

nothing wrong with you. I dated a guy for 8 years who was 18 years older than me.... it was a wonderful experience.

Not really, but understand that this will not be a permanent relationship.  An older guy should introduce you better things than a guy your age.  Nice restaurants, plays, concerts.  In exhange you are keeping him young.

No this isn't a big difference I'am 17 now and my b/f is 21 now, it really isn't that big deal , it's not all about age, if u guys love eachother u shouldn't care about ur ages just follow ur heart.

Older men like younger women to make themselves feel young as others have said. But if the girl is a lot younger it makes the man seem even older and other people will think he is the girl's father. They might think the girl is only after the guy's money. Let's face it, just as a man doesn't want a woman who looks old, a young woman won't want some old guy's wrinkled old a-ss either. An age difference of 10 years is still ok but anything more than that starts to become inappropriate. And let's not overlook older women. I've seen some very hot older women out there.

Heck yeah!!!  All that matters is if the two people are compatable.  Age is just a number.

Not absolutely..The age does not matter if both them feel and understand each other in very good sense.

IT IS ABSOLUTELY NOT WRONG!!! 1 year is NOTHING. It is much more about how you 2 connect with eachother than how close you are in years.  I once had a thing with a guy 2.5 yrs younger than me, and we are still great friends, cuz he was an absolutely AMAZING person, and was super cute, and quite frankly was more mature than most guys my age. Guys the same age as me were always pressuring me to do things I didn't want to, but since I was older than him, this boy was SO respectful of me and my decisions and feelings. And what a sweetheart... as you can see, I could talk for hours.  Obviously dating a guy like 5 years younger than you is kinda weird, but just a few years is NO reason to hide feelings for a guy. If he treats you well, who cares how old he is? And if you're worried about being made fun of, then DON'T! YOU like him, and it's YOUR business. End of story. Best of luck with him! <3

Every relationship is different.  Age doesn't really play a factor (unless the guy is 95 and in a wheelchair and the girl is 20).

The older the man is the better for you because women tend to look older than men especially after giving birth. So dont worry about that guy being 3 years older, in fact up to 10 years older, it still ok but not more than that. Meanwhile, let him make the first move, inviting you out for a first date. Then you see how things will work out. You both have yet to know about each other better than to just plunge deeply into a relationship. You should try and know about his past. He may have certain weaknessess you may not know off. So just go slow and takes things slowly. If hes willed to be with you, he will be, otherwise you just like chasing in the wind. May God Bless you with the will to decide wisely to pursue the relationship with him.

It's fine. My friend has been with her bf for 3.5 years, since she was 18 and he was 26. They're very happy together. But it all depends on the person.

Is he over eighteen? If not your mom's right. Take into mind maturity levels here. Boys mature slower then girls and if you think he's at the same level as you in wanted a lasting relationship you might be wrong. It really depends on how old you are and how old he is.

If the age gap means it's illegal in your country then the simple answer is "no". However, if it's legal, then there's nothing wrong with there being an age gap really. So long as both are WILLING participants, then there's really no issue.

Well, of course it is absolutely acceptable!!! You're not his councilor any more, are you? A 24-year-old girl cannot be worrying about that in the 21st. century. Stop wasting your time and his, and say yes to this guy.

well, i'm only 13 yrs. old, and i'm kinda not married, but i don't see anything wrong with that either. unless you had kids with your ex, you should be fine.

I believe that both parties need to be of age or at least close to it. As long as they are happy, I don't see where we have the right to tell them they are wrong. My BF has a cousin in her 30s and her husband is 83! They are happy. She is his life...literally, she is what keeps him young!\n\nNo age is not an issue it is a number!
