    Liking someone older than you; perhaps a few years doesn't seem like a big deal, or even more, but to others, age really matters.

    My niece is currently 14 years old, and she's 'in love' with a 19, almost 20 year-old. I don't exactly approve of it, but what can you do.

    What do you all think? Does age matter? And does it only matter when you're young, but not as much as you hit the adult stage?

    I don't think age matters, My gf is 14months older than me.
    my question is why would age matter if you're in love?... love is about feelings... its not about numbers.

    my girlfriend and i get along great. i mean of cause there would be fights and arugments, but isn't that normal in all relationships... if a huge difference like plus 10 years then yeh it would matter because of social status and common topics to chat and talk about.. other than that... its the heart that matters.. in a relationship .. the most important thing is the couple... not the people around them
     
  6. it depends on wot age they r... 14 and 20 sound a little uncomfortable to me... coz 14 is still like a kid... however 25 and 35 sound perfectly fine...

    if ur worried abt ur niece just keep an eye with her... b her friend... build up a trust so she would share her thoughts with her... n share ur opion without sounding forceful...

    most teenagers r pretty hard to deal with... they think they know everything... i know i was once like that :p good luck!

    uhm, when i was 18, i had a 14 yr old all over me... -.- she just wouldn't get it that i wasn't interested...

    i think anyone under 16 shouldn't be dating at all =P then after that, age doesnt matter much...
