Is it possible for a relationship with a significant age difference (+8 years) to work? I'm 22 and all I know is that his youngest little sister is 28.

You're old enough to make your own decisions without worrying about ppls opinion of this relationship.

>to work
define 'to work'. you are well aware that plenty of people get married despite said age differences, so if thats what you mean why are you asking?

ITS A CONSPIRACY
GOD DAMNIT SCULLY WHY CANT YOU SEE IT

Because I don't know how to proceed.
I used to date a guy who was 30 earlier, but he was the one who pursued me, and I outgrew him pretty quickly and ended the relationship.

I'm 30, my fiancée is turning 40 this year. It can totally work, but (I think) you need to have similar interests, wants and goals to really make it work. My lady and I are disgustingly similar in many ways.
Yes. My wife was 21 and I was 30. Is been ten years now. I was a pretty immature at 30 though.
Just curious, I've seen your posts a few times, why are you learning Swedish?

As far as I've understood we both value hard work and enjoy alcohol. I'm not sure if we have more similar interests but we're both pretty passionate about those two.

For this whole time before asking his sister's age, I honestly thought he was an unusually mature 23-25-year-old.

I want to avoid alzheimer's and french was too hard.

My boyfriend is 8 years older than me (23, 31).
It works well and we're very happy, but you're at different phases in life and it's important to communicate about what you want/need more than in a normal relationship. One thing that really helped us was being sure of wanting the same things at the same time: we talked early about living together, kids, marriage, my education, his job, etc.

But we ARE in the same situation. We work at the same place.

Swedish is heavily influenced by French

And simplified.

Older man/younger woman? That only worked of rall of history until the 1970s, why would it still work?!

Are you aware of how many unhappy couples remained together just because of the social stigma of divorce?
NOBODY got divorced at the time when my grandparents did.
