My husband and I have nearly 21 years between us, and we are very happily married. What matters is how well two people work together, communitaction, trust, understanding... all the basics.

Dating is one thing, marrage is another. As long as everyone is happy, thats all that matters.
There is 17 years between my parents.
One thing for everyone to consider tho is the effect it has on the kids. Of course, I would be happy with two parents who love me, as anyone would, as a kid it sucked having a parent who was significantly older. My dad was in his 50's when I was born, and he didnt survive to see me finish my senior year. Both my sister and I feel we were a bit robbed, that because he chose to start his family life so late, he wont be around to see our kids and stuff. He never saw me graduate HS, go to college, go greek, graduate college, or start a family. So when a lot of people talk about how its ok to have a carrear and start a family later in life, its easy for them to do it because most often their parents were in their 20's or 30's when they were born. Its easy to talk a good game untill you live it.
Just my 2 cents....
