The thing with the Internet is any twit can get on it nowadays (I've been saying that since the last century).
Age is an indicator, not proof, of maturity and experience. If an age gap prevents someone leaping into a relationship too fast, it's possibly a good think. For reference, Conflux is 7 years older than me. As are djm4 and ruis. I was 19 when I met Conflux which is one reason it took seven years before we moved I was together even.
I don't mention on most of the Internet that my uncle at 28 had a shotgun wedding with the 14-year-old who'd sought him out and helped him get over PTSD from Vietnam. If one of them was vulnerable, it wasn't her. Their older siblings married each other later, and all very happy (apart from effects of other uncle's more severe PTSD from Korea).
