Do you have an age limit on who you would consider as a spouse? (# of years or, % of your age etc....)

This is a good question.
The younger you are, I would say that the closeness of age is more important. If you are, let's say, 25 years old, I think you better pray long and hard if you want to marry someone more than five or six years older than you. As you get older, I think the span can expand some.
I just think that you need to be at a similar stage in life and age naturally creates the various life experiences.

It depends on the maturity of both....I would be more concerned with other issues...

Generally, I consider 18-26 a good range for me. But there are always exceptions.
Differential age? That greatly depends on the maturity of each.
Culture also weighs heavily on age differential. It seems that in the uS, after a couple exceed 50 it matters very little. Ex., 54 year old woman with a 76 year old man. No creepy feelings there. Now consider, 18 year old woman with a 40 year old man. Society seems to be biased against this. The younger woman is sometimes looked at as a gold digger or being taken advantage of and the man is seen as immature or leacherous.

I remember at HAC they had an unwritten rule of like 10 or 15% (don't remember the exact #)
I'm 22 and I'd say for me right now, he has to be between 24 and 32 ideally... I might be ok with #'s outside of there, thats just the ideal range...

I'm outside that range but I haven't counted myself out yet.

I'd go as low as 13. But that has been discussed before in this forum, in another thread.
By TECHNICALLY I mean that I can conceive of the possibility, I have to state categoricly that I'm not nor have I ever been interested in someone so young.
