In America, the love relationship between Ashton and Demi has been the the gossip aross the nation because of their age difference. Of course, they didn't form the sole pair of their kind all around the world. But surely how their relationship ends up may influence how people think of this kind of love.

Do you accept them and the likes of their kind?
Do you think relationships of this kind will work out in the end?

I wanna know how people of different backgrounds and cultures think of this kind of love. Thank you !!

Firstly, I don't think the age difference is an obstacle to love life. It's hard to find reasons to illustrate why a couple fall in love with each other. As the saying goes-"Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder." In most situations, peopele fall in love with someone just because of bodily chemical reactions. It's a natural reaction of human nature. Therefore, it's unnecessary to judge one person by how old another person he/she wants to associate with. Secondly, in modern society, finding true love has become a difficult thing to do. Once somebody is fortunate to find his/her Mr./Mrs. right, we all should bless he/she instead of picking the differences between he/she and his/her mate. I really think it's no big deal that a couple have an age difference between them!
