Dating and the Age Gap


I bet no one will argue that true love has no limits or frames. And today it’s absolutely natural to have a life partner 10-20 years younger or older than you. However, having a deal with age differences you should stick to some simple rules in order to avoid misunderstanding in your relationships. Let’s look at the situation when a female partner is older than her lover.
All We Need Is Love1. If your boyfriend is younger than you, avoid calling him any slighting nicknames. Even if he is younger he is a man and doesn’t need a second mama to call him Cutie or something like that. I think you won’t also appreciate if he calls you mummy.
2. Stop constant emphasizing you age difference like “When I was kissing with my group mates on the party you were in the kindergarten.” Believe, that won’t bring a lot of good to your relationships.
3. Be prepared to feel like a foreigner while meeting his friends, colleagues or family. You were brought up on different values watching different movies and maybe reading different books.
There are thousands of happy couples with more than a decade age difference. Some of them have learned how to overcome problems caused by their age gap, but for others these difficulties become crucial steps on the way to break up.
