I was thinking of this the other day when my wife and I were discussing what to do to celebrate our 30th birthday's since we're only 3 months apart in age and we'll be 30 this coming year. Then that same day it was my sister in law's birthday, who is 7 years younger than my brother.

My family friends growing up (were like my other parents practically) were 11 years apart in age.

With my brother and his wife, they've been together for a long time now but when they started dating there were some age difference issues like maturity.

But on the flip side, I dated a woman that was 30 when I was in my early 20's and in that situation, I found her to be to immature for my taste, all she wanted to do all day was text her friends on her phone and at night go to clubs like she was a teen.

So what is the age difference between you and your significant other for those that have one?

Me: 30
Her: 40

(Edit: Several of my best friends met their current GFs when they were 25 or so and the GFs were 35 or so. Such was also the case with me. We are now 5 years along.)

Four months, but we're young (21). It seems that people who meet when they're young tend to be closer to the same age.

I'm 3 years 3 months older than the wife. I just turned 29, we've been together since '03, married since the first day of '06.

Husband is about 6 months older than I am. For six months of every year he's an old man and for the other six months we don't discuss it. :sneaky:

She is 6 years older than me. It used to bother me but now she gets Social Security and I think I am in love all over again...
