Guys, take a look at the following pic:



the wife is 29, and the husband is 83. the husband is a famous scientist, granted Nobel award years ago. many people think their love and marriage is beautiful and romantic, because it overcomes the obstacle of age. however, in my eyes, it seems pretty weird.

What is your viewpoint? and don't you think that age is a huge problem between them?

ha ha, an interesting question.RR, maybe the girl confuses love and respect Laughing in her eyes, the man is so talented, rich.... and her dazzled gave order for her heart. Laughing
but....it's possible a real love. Sometimes, people 're nuts and dull- witted.
ha ha. I'm also nuts Embarassed

Da-mmit! my computer can't show this pic that Bob pasted. and when I tried to copy the address that Bob quoted to my browser, I failed to open it!!

I guess this page that Bob suggested is a banned page in China. as you well know, Our government always bans some pages that they think we shouldn't see! D-ammit!!

hi there..
i don't think that age is a big problem.
some1 who falls in love doesn't care about all this
the most important is how much they love each other.
but of course 4 those who are materialistic
choosing an old partner is the easiest way to get rich.hehe
i don't think it's wrong Twisted Evil

Redy, Some day a told you that it is possible that kind of relation, because people not only think in sex, but also in common objetives. This was the case of a latinamerican writter Jorge Luis Borges who was single intul he was too old and got marry with a young woman, his secretary, Maria Kodama, who love the work of the writter. After he died Maria Kodama was who make Borges not get died to the world of literature. click on the link. Maria spend all his life in him. I think this an act of pure love

heyy pictures are both weird and funny. Very Happy and also confusing like the issue itself..

It looks really strange.. maybe these ones are the real lovers 'coz they dont care about anything and choose to be together.But there are some who make a relation like this just for money.And doesnt it look soooo imaginary to love someone older than you??
i dont know if you know about Arthur Schopenhaour..he has some really great ideas about issues like this and i approve most of it.In fact i was a mad follower of him.
but in my point of view these are not real love,something else ..maybe imitations Wink

I guess Maria loved the old man and worshiped him. oh, elba, people are different. I can't understand such love, I mean, love without sex is ideal and impossible to me.
