Keeping in mind most male do marry around 30 these days, are you prepared to marry in a year or 2? or is he willing to wait??? don't get me wrong, my uncle is still unmarried and is 10 years older than his current girlfriend and they are going great, as in they own a house, live together etc, and then again i hate some girl friend who is 22 and married to an 29 year old male. Both works out well; so i'd encourage you to talk to him about it if you're taking it seriously.
that's not rare these days... i already know 3 girls who are 19 with bfs in their 30s I would assume around 30-32. it matters to some people... especially people related to the girls that are 19. to me... i wouldn't care.
as long as you feel comfortable with the situation and are happy, I do see any problem in the age gap
9 years isn't a big big age difference . I think is ok .my friend's parents have 10 years age difference and they are married for 20 years.
I don't think you should judge whether you should start a relationship or how a relationship will fare based on the age difference. That is not giving yourself a fair chance. And if you take a closer look, ten years from now when you're 30 and he's 39, the age gap doesn't look too pronounced now does it? Relationship is about two people attracted to one another and want whole-heartedly to make one another happy in a relationship. My brother is 7 and 1/2 years older than me (I'm 22, he's 30) and that has never stopped me from starting a relationship with him three years ago because I like him for who he is, not for how old he is. I think you won't know until you give it a try and see how it works out. Best of luck!
Age is not counting in my view for dating or love someone. If you see the whole world. There are lots of couple who live happy and big different of age between them. Its about understanding. If your partner is well mature and understand you . Then what is problem behind ?
as long as you two don't look like father and daughter + your minds are not totally different (generation gap) i think it should be possible.
it will only pose as a problem if you think of it as a problem.. but if both parties are mature enough to handle things, relationship could blossom no matter what's the age gap. so it's just a matter whether you can handle it or not. Good luck to you!
i agree there though usually if ur going for someone younger there is still like an age limit cos, u would only rele go for them if they have the same maturity as u.
