[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When you're an adult, 6 years is nothing. My mom and my stepdad are 6 years apart, and they have been married for 30 years. My husband is 5 years older than me. It's not a big deal. [/quote] I agree that as adults, the age differences matters less. The older, the less important the gap. However, I find that the late teens and early twenties are such a formative period transitioning into adulthood (in the cultural and psychological sense, not necessarily the legal sense) that the gap between someone who is a senior in HS and someone who may have completed graduate school to be too much. If the younger person in OP's situation were 24, and the older 30, I wouldn't bat an eye.[/quote]
