I had simply never asked, and didn't realize he was that much older, he certainly doesn't look it, and our mutual friends are my age group. At what point is the age difference too big?

hey, i am 14 but i know how age difference affects couples. I mean i have seen loads of parents and step parent relationships with an age difference of 20 years. Really, doesn't seem much but it is already a difference of 1 or 2 generations, they grew up differently with different ways of living so i would think things over, i know i know that i'm too young to say these things but seriously. I have nothing against age difference but i have seen my parents and my friends' parents.

 I'm 38 and my boyfriend is 58. I had no idea that he was 20 years older! Are you worried what others may say? As long as he treats you well who cares!

 Is never really about the age if you two can make a connection. Age never dictates a person's maturity, knowledge and wisdom. Age is only a milestone in which to measure a person's existence. Indeed, someone much younger may see things differently, even be exposed to different life experiences, but a person much older can just as well have lived a life more secluded from the world, or his/her thought processes limited somehow.
Again, it's never about the age, but the connection.
