Our 19-year age gap was only an issue to other people
"Samantha Booth was 21 and working behind a bar at her local pub in Glasgow, when Martin, a man nineteen years her senior, walked into her life."
"Martin, a truck driver, now 54, was a regular in the pub Samantha had begun working in after moving home following a trip to America, and the pair were introduced by her brother".

Common story, age difference.
Doesn't bother either of us one little bit.
It did seem to bother a couple of my friends initially. But that was their problem not mine.
I think the only time age difference ever came to my mind was when we first met, and I did have a few fleeting moments thinking my chances might not the best.
Soon forgot those, the chemistry was there almost immediately.
I think psychological age and outlook much more important than physical ages or how we look.
Just sharing my opinion.

Only the jealous and small-minded see it as a problem.
There are far more important things in life for people to be concerning themselves about.
As the lady in the report says 'people are people'.
If such relationships are happy and fulfilling for both partners, then it has sod all to do with any other busybodies....whose own relationships with their contemporaries may have only lasted a few short miserable years anyway.

I agree with you two chaps. It did bother me at first but looking back I really have had no issues at all, anyway.

There is a gap betweem my wife and I, but I really don't care and nor does she, although she ribs me about it sometimes .
If others have a problem then it is tough. I think a compatability is far more important and that we love eachother. I think it comes down to jealousy and lack of sight from the 'haters'. I think this argument comes into the same category as those who think we have 'Thai brides' idiotsIf you want your dreams to come true ...... first you have to wake up

Yes, that IS more unusual.
Different rules if you're rich...

If the new couple are attracted to each other, than that’s the first important step, none of anyone else’s business
If it’s a Brit man and a younger beautiful Filipina then it’s his ex wife who might be most jealous

Aye ... *Rupert Murdoch's Chinese wife was probably "press"-ganged into the public eye. But ... given the certainty of his limited lifespan - not to mention his vast wealth - she has decided to and *"bear" it!

Talking about age gap, I was bit annoyed yesterday when we went to waitrose to shop for some bits, the old lady cashier was looking at me insanely then she looked at my husband, I don't know what's her problem so I just ignored it, our age difference is 20 so that might freaked her out But I don't care really as we've been together for nearly 5 years, I just have to get used to these people who can't accept the fact that age really doesn't matter.

If I was there I would have to say something...like " yes, am I a lucky guy".

NICE ONE!
One of my best Mates was on holiday years ago in the Canary Islands, just divorced from his ex gold digger of a wife. Having a quiet beer at the bar, asked for a light for his smoke off a cute 17 year old German girl. Got chatting. 10 years on they are married, have a lovely kid and a business together, she is 27 and my Mate 59! Happy as Larry. Good on 'em!!
