Only one of those strikes me as a real May/December pairing. May/August, maybe, or June/October. (Yeah, I'm being nitpicky, but if there isn't grey hair involved it isn't a real May/December for me.)

Anyway, I've been in a long-term relationship with a seven-year age difference (I'm the older one) and it was kind of a train wreck at the start but it's ended up being a really good thing for both of us. He was over 21 when we started, though. If your friend is emotionally mature and her partner has good intentions (and is also emotionally mature; I know too many 50-year-olds with the emotional maturity of high school juniors), it can work out.

And it's unlikely that you'll be able to change her mind. The guy I just mentioned above was previously in a relationship with a woman older than me, who started out sincere but ended up ruining his credit rating and jerking him around emotionally. I saw it coming when she started isolating him from his friends, and tried to get him to step back; I ended up being the one she refused to let him see (he went along with it because he loved her), and the one who caught him when he finally jumped out of that particular flaming wreck of a relationship. Sometimes that's all you can do.

I agree that age != maturity. Some of the most immature people I've met have been women in their 40s. And I've met some really mature 20-somethings. It depends on how someone grew up.

It also depends on where the age gap occurs. I would say that a relationship where one person is in their late-teens and the other past their 30s are less likely to work out than someone in their 30s with a person in their 50s. Only because it's more probable that someone in their 30s and 50s will have had more similar life experiences than someone in their late-teens and 30s.

I was in a long-term relationship with someone in their late-teens (who was mature for their age) while I was in my mid-20s. Not a huge age gap, but big enough. It started out fine because mentally we were on the same level. I wasn't using them (if anything I was being used) and enjoyed the company. Things got rocky because I had more experience and that didn't sit well. He was the one who isolated me and was controlling. So, it just goes to show that anyone can be an abusive asshole regardless of the age of the persons involved.
