I'm wondering what everyone thinks is an acceptable age difference in a relationship. My family says they will disown me if I continue a relationship with a man 16years younger than me. We are both adults as I am 37 and he is 21. We just click. I am completely in love with him and can't imagine him not being in my life. I know what love is as I was in a relationship/marriage for 20 years before I fell out of love with him. I did not meet my new guy until after so he is not the reason I fell out of love with my ex in case you wondered. We just simply grew apart. I just want to know what is considered acceptable age difference to everyone.
