My bestie Dr. Jade Teta is back for our ongoing series around relationships, and today's is about a growing trend: relationships where the partners are 10 - 20 years or more apart.
Age gap relationships are often surrounded by stigma, and people involved in a relationship where one is much older than the other are often more susceptible to the opinions and judgments of someone else.
There are a lot of other factors to be taken into account when starting a relationship as well, including differences between life experiences, maturity, specific goals in life, and overall lifestyle.
Jade and I are drawing from our personal experiences in this realm along with the scientific research about how to handle age gap relationships and the pros and cons of going this route and some of the considerations to think about. And ultimately, both parties will need to examine their own levels of confidence, self-consciousness, comfort, and most of all: preparation to deal with potential issues of compatibility.
