I know of several successful and Godly marriages with 10, even 12 years of separation. Do not lose hope, my lady. Surely God knows the desires of Your heart; He is a good and faithful Father, seeking only the best for each of His daughters.

I think it matters less the older you get. It depends on like... stages of life rather than the number.

I WILL NOT HATE.
Does age really matter in a relationship? My heart is breaking...
My parents are 12 years apart. Right now he is 80 and she is 68. They have been married 36 wonderful years this month.
I would say age can get in the way in the kind of situation where one is 18 and the other 30. Obviously there is a huge maturity gap not just an age gap. (Unless of course youre a very mature 18)

I agree with those who say it matters less as you grow in maturity. It mattered to me. But I was the scenario above where I was 18 and he was 35.
It seems like the 1/2 your age +7 seems to average out well as to figuring an acceptable gap.

Age can be an issue, although, I've dated a couple of gals who were younger then I was.
Sorry your heart if breaking. There are so many factors when dating younger people, not just maturity.
