No, not with older people. Love is love.
However personally I find it potentially problematic when one of them is very young. For example look at a 20 year age gap of an 18 and 38 yo vs say 38 and 58 yo. I would say technically the same gap in years but very different. Because someone 18-early 20s is barely out of adolescence with a brain that's not fully reached adult growth and maybe with a notable deficiency in life experience vs a full blown mature adult advanced in years. The power balance is iffy. It feels a bit predatory and exploitative. I'm not saying 100% of the time it is however from experience a lot of the time it is. So large age gaps with very young adults definitely make me skeptical.

Totally agree with this. Think maturity is needed on here and not everyone has it. The older people are, the more likely they are to have matured but not always.

So if you are saying age doesn't bother you as long as there is a connection, would you as a 40 something year old, go with a 16 year old? Just because there is a connection, i think not!! So..... |

"I don't have a problem with it but won't go younger than my youngest child"
I try not to go below 20 because that’s my daughter‘s age, but I have done but it was only a year younger but I prefer them older and more experienced |

Exactly it’s up to the couple that are playing what age or who they play with our reason for no one under 40 is because we got children that age or younger and it just doesn’t feel right playing with people the same age as them |
