I'm in love with a boy who is 3 years younger to me, will that cause a problem in future when we are married?

As you get older, you never really even think about age anymore.  It's just not important.

if you like him it really doesn't matter what your friends thinks...besides, being older can be an advantage in a relation.\nand if you waited for three years, come on! you shouldn't give up just because some fuss\nif you leave him just because of the age, and because of your friends, it would be really silly and insensitive with your own feelings.\nIndepending on the age, you can be good together, and when your heart is broken and you feel alone, there's nothing your friends could do for you (nothing like being with the one you want!)\ngo for it.....care about your feelings....

I don't think there's anything *bad* about loving anyone, but there are lots and lots of reasons not to get involved with someone that much older than you. In theory it shouldn't make any difference if you love someone, but it really does. The worst thing I think is that the *best* thing that can happen is that you (and your kids, if you adopt) will watch him get old and die. If you adopted today, he will be 80 when you are 50 and your kid is 30. I say stick with the guys your own age, and let him be a friend of the family, an honorary uncle perhaps. You can still feel love for him without being his partner.

maybe and maybe not...it is hard to know what the future holds...if this helps I grew up with a friend who did marry the guy that she had liked since they were little so it can happen...good luck!

It depands on the couple's level of maturity.  If he pops the question, tell him that you would prefer a long engagement.  This will give you both a chance to grow with each other and find out it it is right.  I wouldn't get married just yet...  heck, you are only 18, you can wait a year or two...

Havent you grown up yet or are you your Momma's little boy, she takes decisions which effect your life. Grow up man, be bold and marry the girl you love. Age is not a problem if the two of you love each other.

You did not say how old you both are, so I can only assume you are both old enough to get married. If true love is what you have then God bless the both of you.

Sure.  Why not?  If you truly love each other, I just married my husband in August and he is 14 1/2 yrs older than me.  Some times these things just work out that way.  I think it is a great idea to wait a few years to make sure things work out.  He and I were together for 3 yrs first, and yeah a job would be in order, those weddings are very expensive. And, sure, if you want to wait until your wedding night, then that is your choice.  Don't let him, or anyone else tell you that you have to.... if he truly loves you he will respect your decision.

dont get married .... unless your a positive you are both perfect for each other at least wait till your 20 you change over time and just because you are good toether now doesn mean you'll be good together later (forever is what marriage means)you'll both change over time and not nessecarily in the same way

I'm 20 and my fiance is 21.. weird... same ages.. we've been together for 3 years and engaged 1.. we will have been engaged for 2 and together 4 when we get married next September. I don't think age is an issue.. you have to do whats right for you when you're ready, you can't put a time frame on love  :) if you and your boyfriend want to be engaged 20 years and have a 10 year honeymoon, by all means.. do it ... do whatever makes you happy.. life is too short to worry about what other people think =)  good luck

I understand that you're worry about if he isn't mature enough and ready to face a life time marriage. I would say it's something that you should consider about but not to judge a person through his/her age. If you two have already got to the step that which is going to marry then you should know your future husband better. I don't know how well you two know about each other but I wouldn't recommend a rush relationship, especially marriage. Age wouldn't be a matter in a relationship which is cause by love, you should take a closer look to this person, find out if he would be the one that can love you, accept you and willing to cooperate with you to operate a life time marriage. If the answer that he give to you is "yes" and he has already proved to you, you mustn't stop.

well dear , i think you are still too young , he is already 13 years older than you even though the age doesn't matter SOMETIMES, but you both can not be like each other much , because he is nearly grown man and your so young . And its very soon for you to start relationship with a man , am sure when you get older ; your ideals will be changed , and may be you will regret for choosing him and may be not as well. As you know relationship in young ppl would be ended very soon, because its not strong love , and no enough reason , most of them are sensitive decisions. And  i think its better you fall in love slowly but sensibly \n, if you do that your Love will grow by age and your relationship would not be finished so quickly and nothing can disturb this.\n\nGood Luck darling

my husband is 10 years older than myself, we have a beautful 2 yr old baby boy, so age isn't a factor unless of course you aren't legal!!! love can happen to anyone

My husband and I are few months apart age wise and he is the older, we met at university and I believe it was love at first sight, even if we didn't realize it immediately, We married within two years of graduating and that was 14 years ago, we are still in love, so from my experience, being in love and marrying someone my own age has been a successful venture.\n\nI do disagree with sweety in saying that age gap with the man being at least 3 to 4 years  older creates respect. What creates respect is mutual understanding, love, trust, taking care of the duties of marriage as dictated by God etc, it has nothing to do with the age of the husband.\nIf your man treats you like his queen like my  husband does with me, you can't but want to care for and respect him because that is what he deserves.

Thinking now of the age difference is futile,because u've already been married.Sometimes,yes,age does affect the relationship,the ideal difference shld be plus or minus 3-4 yrs.You both have to make it a point to be open and honest in ur communication.To minimise the numbering u cant do anything,but u need to be more tolerant and understanding and accepting with the younger partner,without 'parenting' ur role.
