edited July 2014 in TTC After a Loss
All the polls lately made me curious, what is the age difference between you and your significant other? ;)

    Oops, guess newbies really shouldn't post polls - sorry everyone. Misunderstood some of the abbreviations but edited what I could, unfortunately I do not have a delete button.

    @ktlovess - Thank you, I learn something new everyday here. Lol. 

    My DH and I are 10 years apart, but my parents are 15 years apart. It's always interesting to see people's reactions when they learn about our age differences. You wouldn't know unless we told you.

    My H is 8 months older than me. What's funny is that once his birthday passes, I usually start to consider myself that age too. For example, I think of myself as being 32 already even though my birthday isn't until October.

    H loves to do that stuff to me (since I'm older)! But I always get him back when we go out because he is already a silver fox and everyone thinks he is older than me. The best times are those when I get carded and he doesn't! ;) LOL
    LOL so this happens to us in reverse!!! I get carded or accused of being the older one! In my defense, it usually happens at wal-mart when I have no makeup on & look like crap. I also think the old women cashiers have a "thing" for H

    We are just shy of 20 years apart. It's funny to think that when he graduated from high school, I wasn't even born, but in the day-to-day realities of life, our age difference doesn't play into much of anything. He's a big kid and I'm an old soul. We just work together.

    H is 1 year, 1 month, and 4 days older than me. But honestly, I forget about it. It was funny when we started dating though, because he's always looked older and I've always looked younger, so it probably looked like a 28 year old with a 16 year old lol
