What is an acceptable age difference in a relationship
Do you think the woman should be younger than the man? Is it okay for a woman to be older than the man? What do you think is the largest age difference that is acceptable?

There's technically nothing wrong with age differences in a relationship as long as both are over 18.
But I find it strange when men in their 30's and 40's befriend women under 18 but wait for the 18 cut off point to take it further as though this cut off point suddenly makes a drastic difference in mental development. It's so common.
Also, age gaps bigger than 10-12 years make me feel uneasy because of the power dynamics that are usually at play. With that being said, i'm not about to storm an adults house for dating someone who could pass for his grandma. You do you, boo. Granny Smith deserves love too.
