i was 21 when I met a 42 year old.

22 years later I am still with her and happy. Not sure if she is still older than me as I struggle with maths and don't really care enough to count

6 years older than current partner. Not sure I would feel comfortable with a bigger age gap so am always intrigued by the 20yrs plus differences and how that works in practice. I certainly couldn't cope with a lass 20 yrs younger. I don't like One Direction for a start....

16. 58/42, I'm oldest. And it doesn't make the slightest bit of difference, either.

Sis in law's fella is the same age as her Mum, its grim. If I ever met him I'd ask how hes robbing her of having the opportunity of a family/her best years.

Would I do the same if I was in his shoes? No, I have a conscience.

Is your sis-in-law happy?

It could be worse, she might have met you before her Sister did 8)

Me, 38
HRH, 35 in April

Although I'm a big kid at heart so the theoretical age difference puts HRH as much much older than me ...

MLC's are very serious business... you just [i]gotta[/i] have the best bike in the trail centre car park, the coolest skate shoes, the youngest girlfriend and a hair-cut that really doesn't hide your bald spot.

Met Emma just before my 21st, she's 5.5 years older. Apparently she was a bit shocked to find out my age 😆 .

7 and a bit years, 2 failed houseboat attempts and some debt later, here we are.

It's odd, she's definitely more organised but in terms of maturity there isn't really a gap... apart from the biological clock, her baby alarm is going off 😯

I've been given 3 years of freedom, then the umbilical handcuffs are attached. Tick, tock, tick, tock
