Surely not more than 30 years!
What's the biggest gay couple age difference you know of?

Dec 11, 2011 11:57 AM GMTNot 30 - it would be difficult to achieve that unless they met in much later life I guess..
The largest gap couple I know is 21 years - now that theres a partner in his 60s and one in his 40s the cracks in relationship are starting to show -

I think this is true. If there's a 20+ difference, growing old together will surely become very testing. Imagine being 60 with a partner of 80. I could not see myself in a position like that. -
Dec 11, 2011 1:42 PM GMTAbsolutely - they don't have sex any more, which is frustrating the 40 something a lot .
Physically he's a lot fitter and there's some jealousy on the 60 yo guys behalf there too .. strains the relationship when the 40 year old needs to do the heavier work around the house...
I will be interesting to see what happens when retirement happens - Mr 40 will probably go nuts with Mr 60 at home later...

Dec 11, 2011 3:13 PM GMTI'm in a committed relationship, my BF is 29 years younger. Yes, I do have my own set of long-term concerns, as this is the largest age difference I've ever had in a relationship. But he's happy, I'm happy, and we've agreed to just see where it leads.
For the sceptics out there, he's a college grad, has his own place, his own job, and his own car, all of which he got with his own money. Dont even start with the sugar daddy crap...please. -

still cranking on 21 year old underwear model Nick Gruber. That is a 47 year age difference.
To this Michael Musto recently wrote in the Village Voice "You were never really that much of a gay hero in the first place," adding, "Now you've hooked up with that almost-21-year-old ex-porn star, Nick Gruber, and you're fawning over him as if this were real love and not a massive late-life crisis being acted out for the horrified masses." Musto finishes off with, "Calvin, you went from deeply closeted to being more open about your shame-based antics, and I don't know what's worse."
Yikes - makes you glad you're not a public icon.

Snap... my partner is 29yrs my senior, we've been together almost 20 years (civil partnership for 2 (you know we got round to signing the papers eventually!)...
However to note for anyone embarking on a big age gap, I certainly wouldn't want to have gone the monogamous route as our sex drives have varied considerably over the years, mine was a lot lower than his when we met, and besides having group sex with the bf can be such fun - all those glances of I'd rather cuddle up with you and have a cup of tea
while having some guy in between you!
