5 years difference at the max. Anymore than that and there will be problems at some point. Whether you're 20, 25, 30, 40, 45....you dont need more than 5 yrs apart if it's someone you want to marry or be with in a long term sense. Why? Well, there are a lot of reasons. Men loose their sexual drive a lot earlier than women, men go through their mid-life crisis and having a younger woman is fine....but when women go through theirs, having a much older man won't be good. Men who usually date or marry women a lot younger than them are usally the ones who turn out to be the 50/60 yr old guys who divorce their wives and get another 25/30 yr old later on. And there's the children factor. Lets say you're 25, dating a guy who's 32. Lets say things work out, you get married in a yr or two...which means you'll be 26 or 27. Then you'll want some time together before you start popping out 24hr headaches...so lets be short and say you have another yr or two together. That means you'll be 28 or 29. Well, by then the guy will be 35/36 and having his 1st kid and odds are you'll want more than one child. By the time your 1st kid is 20 yrs old its dad will be 55/56 yrs old. If you hurry up and have another kid a yr or two after the first child...the dad will be damn near 60 yrs old when the second child is 20. In my view, that too old. He won't be able to do much with kids ( active things ). I don't know about most men, but when I have kids I want to be an active dad.
