January-December romances are becoming more and more frequent in our culture, so I don't think that you will be shunned by anyone other than close-minded folks. If you truly love her, let your heart lead the way.

If you are in love, age does not matter. Do not let society dictate what's in your heart.

Good rule of thumb: 1/2 your age + 7.

No, he's talking about dating someone older than him, not younger.

Well, the rule of thumb would work in reverse too. If he is within 1/2 age + 7 he will likely be okay.

Love knows no age. Just look at Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore... 16 year age difference!
