[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends on the people involved, but I'd say for *most* people, at those particular life stages - it tends to be too much of a gap with the woman being older.

How important is marriage & kids in the next 3 - 5 years for you?

I'm assuming it's a new relationship, so you don't want to get too heavy too fast. But if those things are important to you, in the first couple months I'd suggest having a serious conversation with him about where he's at in his life and if he sees those as possibilities (not with you, but in general) in his 20s.

OP here, yes the relationship is pretty new, i'm ambivalent about kids, for me it's more important to meet someone i want to spend my life with and if we have kids great if not that's fine too.

PP here - Cool, then I don't think it's as big of a deal. I'd still recommend not throwing more than 18 months at the relationship without having a pretty solid understanding of where it is going, because your options do start to get lower the older you get (more good guys are taken, not that you aren't as much of a catch but it's just math), but I think it's fine if you like him and aren't feeling any pressure about kids.
