My first long term relationship.....we were near the same age. He was only 2 years older than me.

My second l/t relationship (and we did eventually marry)....he was 11 years older than me. We are divorced (and his age had a little to do with it).

My current l/t relationship (and we are married now)......He is 8 years younger than me and I think I can speak for both of us and say....we love it that way and it's working out perfectly!

Hopes this helps in your comparison.
