hey, i am 16 and my boyfriend is 23...the age gap was a very hard thing to deal with at first because i was under age and he could go to jail for being with me.. and it broke my heart everyday knowing that i could put the guy i love in jail..we had to sneak around for 7months and i still have to figure out how to tell me parents. and everyday that passes me i thank god that i have got this wonderful guy in my life, he means the world to me and i am just so grateful that he is mine. age isn't anything, it is just a number, if you love someone as much as you say, u would give the world to them and would do anything to be with them. if you guys are happy and want to spend every minute with each other and believe that it can work, you have no problems what so ever. and if you love her you shouldnt be so concerned with what others think!! go for it i say, it will work if you follow your heart and just believe in yourself and think positive!!! good luck i wish you the best!!! :) and just be honest with her.

kenny agony aunti don't see any reason atal why it shoulden't work, five years is nothing. age means nothing if you both love each other from the bottom of your hearts.

Im 30, and the girl i am seeing at the moment is 39, and we get along fantastically.

It definitely can work. I am engaged to a guy who is 9 years younger than I am and we are great together. We balance each other out. Love shows no boundaries.

Pretty and proud agony auntOf corse it will if you both love eachother! one of my brothers is 20 and hes with a 26 year old woman but they love eachother and they are great together another one of my brothers is 21 and hes with a 25 year old woman they have a baby together and are happy. Love makes a relationship work and age is only a number when you are old enough to know what love is. xxx

why shouldnt it? If neither of you has any concerns of the age gap then it shouldnt cause any problems.5 years is not that much of a gap anyway.A lot of long term relationships including marrage has a lot bigger age gap.I myself have been in a very happy relationship for the past year and a half and the age gap is 13 years difference.Good luck. :)
