Best Answer

No in fact Abraham and Sarai were ten years apart. More than likely, Ruth and Boaz were much farther apart in age than that, so age difference is not an issue. It does however put a premium on family, espescially parental, approval. It was unthinkable for a couple to marry in biblical times without approval of both families.

Is 13 years age difference between couples too much?

If you are both are consenting adults then no, a 13 year difference in age is acceptable. However, the relationship would be far more successful if the 13 year difference began at 25 years of age or more with a partner who is 13 years older. If the 13 year difference in age is with too young a person the relationships seldom work out because of maturity problems.

How are relationships different in high school when it comes to age difference and how common is it?

Relationships between people in high school of different ages are very common. They happen because age no longer matters as much in high school as it does in middle school.These kinds of relationships may be different in the sense that the older person of the couple is able to drive, allowing the couple to go out way more.


Is a 4 year age difference bad in a relationship the boy being older?

In the younger years, it can be of significant difference. But as you age, the 4 years in difference seem to wane. My wife is 4 years younger than I am ... in our senior citizen age, the age difference doesn't really mean anything at all. By the way, there is no difference either if the gal is 4 years older either ... if two people are deeply in love and have a wonderful relationship, what's age then ... just a number.


Can a couple be three years apart in age?

The law is mainly interested in age differences when one person is below the age of consent. The age of consent varies depending on where you are, and sometimes what gender you are. Generally speaking if both people are above the age of consent and not closely related to each other, there are no legal issues with their conducting a romantic relationship. Romantic relationships involving differences in age are relatively common. Sometimes men and women are involved with people who are 20 or more years in age difference between them. Just because there are no legal impediments doesn't mean that everyone would approve of a large difference in ages. In some cases (for example teacher-student relationships) it may be considered illegal or unethical to maintain a relationship.
