Does age REALLY matter

I just can't believe age is still a huge issue when it comes to relationships. The stares I get are so annoying I don't look like a teen so I don't understand... when I mention my fiancé being in his 50s and me having just turned 20 surprises so many people... can't believe it
For the most part, no. But if someone that is 18 is dating someone well into their 50’s and above then there is a bit of concern there. Can neither of them get partners around their age?
@MsAnnThropy It's a maturity thing in many cases. There weren't any mature marriage minded men in my age group and I was not about to waste time waiting for one to grow up in to responsibility. So I opened myself to dating above my age.

Of course, you do get some in it for money reasons, sex, all that just as much.
Depends on the age, maturity and intentions I think.

There are 15 year olds that are exceptionally mature and 50 year olds that aren't. But there are predators out there also.

I'm short and pale, look young. So I've had people think I'm a young teen and hubby is some pedo. Not very often but once in a while and I have to laugh when I tell them I'm in my 30's.

Well it might make me do a double take and have a few thoughts about the reasons they're together but whatever as long as you're both adults.

How did you meet? How long were you dating before getting engaged? When is the marriage?

What shouldn't matter is what [i]they[/i] think.
