After reading lots of replies from this topic I've rolled my eyes so hard that I almost saw the back of my head!
I am 25 years old and I've been in a relationship for almost 5 years with someone 12 years older than me and we're going strong! I was 19 when we fell in love. In fact, I cannot see my life without him as we have one thing in common - love and respect for each other. And you know what? This relationship is getting stronger day by day!
We've been through various crises - including severe financial problems, family trouble and a few more, and these things hadn't shaken us! And I know, things can change and cir
stances can change, but we are enjoying what we've got, and the age difference doesn't bother either of us.
And you know what's funny? We cry so much for equality and yet we still judge others or place various relationships in a small box. Relationships come in various genres and bear vast differences like the myriad people who are bold enough to venture into them.
Come on, it's 2011! Age, gender, race, sexuality and preferences should be something that shouldn't be an issue anymore.
