So...

[dbgtz]

I just learnt a person from my college who is my age is in a relationship with a person scraping their 50s. I'm curious as to wether I should mention anything? I was going to but they mentioned of potentially getting engaged due to some evidence they had. I mean, is it more common then I think to have a 30 years or so age gap?

I kept some information in here restricted for privacy reasons.

30 years is a bit strange :P ...Who exactly are you planning on talking to about it though?

[Kyle]

their own choice imo you should butt out unless there is evidence of abuse or something just leave them be

[dirrty]

it's none of your business.

[Gibs960]

As said before, unless you think there's a problem (abuse or whatever), you should butt out.

[Inseriousity.]

While I personally don't see the appeal, it doesn't give anyone the right to get involved with other people's love life. Although as I'm nosy, what's this meant to mean? "they mentioned of potentially getting engaged due to some evidence they had" that makes no sense :P

[Sharon]

maybe it's not got much to do with you but i can see why your concerned, hell i would be.

[geo]

Although I'd be concerned I would just avoid it as it isn't your business, aha. :P Damn, if I found a friend dating someone with a huge age gap I'd be concerned.

I genuinely have no idea why it's ever seen as odd for two post-pubescent people who enjoy each other's company to be together

[beth]

live and let live unless the person is under 16, dunno how old you are. and in that case i'd talk to a teacher or something.

no doubt they'll learn the hard way, but that is their decision.

[Empired]

If it makes them happy and there's no harm in the relationship.. why not?They could be happy for thirty years or so if they're serious. Although I find it hard to get my head around the concept of being able to be serious about somebody who is over thirty years older than yourself..

Whatever makes your friend roll will be best for them :)

[buttons]

what do you mean "potentially getting engaged due to some evidence they had"
and no you shouldn't say anything cause if it was a problem for either of them then they wouldn't be together in the first place. people make such a big deal over other's relationships than the actual people in the relationship. ANNOYING. & a 30 year age gap probably isn't common but it isn't "wrong" or illegal (unless of courseone is under 16)or anything to do with anyone anyway.
