United States of America (Press Release) October 16, 2007 --
I am 43-years-old and my partner is 31. We first met at Agelessmatch.com. However, I did not consciously choose my partner because he was younger, but because we were on a level spiritually and emotionally and he possessed all the qualities that I would want in the ideal partner.The age that you are chronologically doesn't necessarily equate to a certain level of maturity or even attitude or interests. You can, for example, have two twenty-year- olds with totally diverse interests, a different outlook on life and different degrees of maturity and yet you can find a 70-year-old who is on a similar wavelength to a 30- year-old. The Reverend Barry Trill, 59, is a retired vicar from Hastings and in June 2001, his wife, Sharon, who is 30 years' his junior gave birth to their first child. If you witnessed the two of them together, you would have no idea that the age gap between them was so large. This just proves that biological age is often so different to your chronological age.
Age is one of the least important factors in maintaining a successful relationship. I have several friends who are happily married to, or involved with, much
older or younger partners. Whether the man or the woman is the older partner, the essential ingredients that uphold the relationship are companionship, compatibility, compassion, understanding, kindness, affection and trust - factors that don't necessarily bear any relation to age.
In the past, the media in particular have insidiously set the framework for acceptability and propagated the idea that in order to be desirable you have to be young and emaciated and that if you're past a certain age you have little hope of finding a partner. However, an increase in societal acceptance towards age gap relationships has widened the scope for newly single or divorced people, who can now look outside the confines of their own age groups in pursuit of the perfect match.

Age is a big bonus not a barrier when it comes to love
