Does age matter?

When does age matter? Is there such a point? And I’m not entertaining those that are under 18yrs old we ALL (should) know better than that I'm talking all LEGAL HERE..... Seriously at what point does age matter? I have seen men with younger women and women with younger men. I've seen younger men with older women and younger women with older men. When is it not ok to date beyond or below the norm? I have recently found myself asking that question to my all of my close friends because of a current umm...courtship that's well on its way. I have heard many positive and many negative remarks and frankly, I do not think it should matter if both ADULTS are willing to make it work. With all the feedback I have received, I think that age only matters when the people involve makes it an issue. I figured that everyone has the same concerns and the same expectations as everyone else when it comes to a relationship: on what they expect, what they want to get out of it, rather or not the person pleases them, etc etc. you know how it goes. There has been a lot of successful relationship where one person is older than the other oh and before you comment I’m talking about 10 yrs plus+++++++++++++++ lol
