When the guy is ten years older, all the girls say "Age doesn't matter! Go for it! You can't help who you fall in love with!"

But when the guy is one single year younger, the same girls will start cautiously asking "Is this difference okay?"

It seems to me that age actually matters quite at bit.

I believe that you should focus your attention on the relationship not how old you or he is. answer these questions do you love him do you and him get along does he love you if you answered yes to this then focus on that because love does not know an age.

be good to each other guide each other and learn from each other.

Sincerely

Its not an issue of age unless the girl is under 18. Trust me I know that one because ive got my own issue, only im 16 and hes 24. I know theres alot of people out there who say that its wrong to love someone with that kind of age difference at times, but you cant help who you fall in love with! i hope everything works out!

sexi agony auntHi

Age is only an issue if you make it one. I dont think there is anything wrong with that. As long as you love each other then nothing should be in the way of yourll/ I think that you should enjoy what you have and dont worry about what anyone else says b/c what counts is what yourll feel.

Good Luck, mail me if you wanna talk

Age has never been an issue with me unless one of the partnership is under 16, then i think that is certainly a no no.

take care

I don't think age matters really. I mean, if the couple love eachother I don't see why a number should come into it at all. :) x

Sandman agony auntI think it's okay. I'm not sure the age of sexual consent in the Philippines though. But either than that, I think that's a pretty okay age gap if they both love each other.

Hope this helps.
