This is a very intriguing topic, I must say. It will divide the readers depending on their beliefs. Many will say "age does not matter in love" or "love knows no age" but we can't deny the fact that many couples are being judged based on the age gap of their partner. May-December love affair as others calls it. This topic also opens the question, "why is it okay that men date younger women but older women should not date younger men?" Relationship topics can be really tricky and complicated.
I think in some ways, this kind of relationship can actually work. One is more mature than the other. But mind that maturity does not always come in age. Sometimes younger people tend to think more logical or practical than older people. Which I think is very important in a relationship. That's why my thoughts are also divided if age really matters or not.
For some, age is one of the least factors in a relationship while for others, age is a very important factor in finding a partner. Well, technically, I can say age can be, yes, a factor. You don't want to date a minor when you're an adult. That's against the law. And some people would prefer older partners so they can have a more mature relationship.
Age will not defy the relationship. No matter the age, people can be manipulative and childish. It all depends on both you and your partner's understanding with each other and it depends on the person itself if he/she is matures and ready for the relationship.
I have friends who have partners years younger than them. I asked them about this topic and they said that their partners may be younger but they are more mature than my friends are in terms of a relationship. My friends may have more experience in relationship but their partners' maturity is what keeps them intact not the experiences.
But there are also people who suffer from their partner because of age-gap. Some older partners become more manipulative that it begins to make the relationship toxic. And some younger partners are too child-like that it may seem like they're dealing with their kid instead. So basically, it may or may not work. It's a case to case basis.
No matter the age, you should be fully committed and ready before you get into a relationship. You should know that being in a happy relationship takes a lot of work. It's not like a fairy tale movie where you get everything you want in the end.
This is why I am saying earlier that I think, it depends on the person's commitment and maturity. Although you can't deny the fact that being older makes you have more experiences that you have learned from. SO I'm having divided thoughts on this topic.
