a older spouse?
Does any other mommies have an older man? Me and my bf have a 13 year age difference, and i love him soo much. Ill be 19 next month and my bf is 31, but when i say he acts like a kid, he really does! Been with him for 6 months and couldnt be happier.

Oh, okay. geez. sorry. I thought you started up with him at 14 and that would be creepy. :>) sorry about that.
Nooo, i startee dating him when i turned 18... i said knew him 4 years before we got together.. i was not dating him when i was 14..

I think she could have said her answer in a different way but the intent wasn't to hurt you. There are some that would say that an 18 year old and a 31 year old are at a different place in life or at least should be. And if you were with him for 4 years, you were 14 and he was 27. That would be upsetting. That you were with him 4 years prior probably is a bit more to think about. what would a 27 year old man really be doing with a 14 year old child. When you are a mother, you'll understand that a 14 year old is still really a kid. If you'd just met him and you were 18 and he 31, well, it would be slightly different because you are an adult. In most states, when you were initially together, it is illegal. Even if you consent, it is considered statutory rape.
I'm not being negative but this new info of your age and the age you were when you started dating is something that does give me pause. And it does speak to a man that wants someone he can have some control over because your relationship started when it would be impossible for you two to have been equals. And you have to be equals to be in a solid relationship.
Not being negative but just saying how I feel. I don't have a problem with age difference at all and have friends who married older men and my husband has friends who married younger women--- but if they brought around a young teen, I'd be very concerned. And I would not, as an adult, be able to relate to a 14 year old, 15 year old, 16 year adult as the same as I am in my mid to late 20's. That's just a fact I must share. You'd be like my little sister or something and not my peer. peace and luck to you

In all honesty idc about our age difference my mom approves, even my grandparents.. i dont even live with my mom.. and besides i known him 4 years before we got together.. im legal age. You dont know me or him. So please the negative comments are not welcomed.

I think when the age difference hits you is either early on or later. I have a girlfriend with a husband several years older than her and he is now looking very old compared to her. They overall are happy but she wants more kids and he thinks he's past the age in which he should have any more and issues like that.
But in between when people are really young and getting older, it doesn't much matter. good luck

Im 18 and boyfriend/fiance is 24, 25 in 2 months. Hes the best man ive ever had and is so supportive hah he doesnt yet kno how to handle my mood swings but hes gettn ther couldnt ask for a better man!
My boyfriend is 7 years older and sometimes we feel the age gap when it comes to certain things but we mix very well. Just don't be naive to certain things about yourself and him ..think realistically. You are still very young not even old enough to drink and most likely haven't even had close to as many life experiences as he has. There may be a time when you want to enjoy your young age and he is ready to completely settle down .or you want to settle down and he still doesn't want to and you waste your younger years chasing and older man.
I'm 22, hubby is 25.
am 18 nd my boyfriend 34 nd we are very happy together
BonitaMichelle why did you even comment??? She didn't ask for opinions on an older spouse. She asked about others in a similar relationship. I was 19 when met my husband who was about to turn 30. Age is just a number. It doesn't determine your personality, your beliefs, or the people you should love. As a 19 year old I had been living on my own and supporting myself, cross country from any family for two years. There are 30 year olds who have barely walked down the street from their house. Life experience is not made with just age. How you work together for your relationship is much more important.
18 is to young for a 31 year old. What would a 31 year old man see in an 18 year old ? It's wonderful because your young and have no experience. God bless. You will need it.
I'm 20 in my husband is 31 when we got toghter Nov 3 2013 I was 19 he was 30 in now we are married been for 7months with are first child. Both of us have no kids but this baby girl in my belly now. Age don't mean nothing love is love girl.

My husband is nearly 7 years older than me. Age doesn't mean anything, it's all about match. And u couldn't have a better one. We'll be married 7 years next June and are welcoming our second daughter in February.
And my grandparents were 11 years apart and were very happily married for 57 years before his passing.
