    It can work out, there is an age difference, that's for sure. But this is their business. Do THEY have a problem with it?

    Also, please spell words out and use correct grammar.

    Sorry about the grammar and the miss spelt words and no they don't have a problem with this I was just woundering if if there was any legalitys behind it but I guess not with them both being over the age of 18?

    There are no legalities against this, since the 19 year old is above the age of consent. However, they are in two different stages of life.

    That saying, "Age ain't nothin' but a number" is actually true. I know 40+ year olds that have the life experience and maturity of a 16 year old and vice versa. You can't judge someone only by the numbers of years they've been alive. Living & learning is the only way to grow and mature. So for that reason, I'd just let your friend live and learn. This relationship may or may not work out but I don't believe it's doomed simply because they have an age difference and I honestly feel that you're worrying in vein. If they're happy together, let them enjoy their relationship - no matter how long or short it may be. If things are not working out for your friend in their relationship, I'm sure they will leave. Just be there as a friend if they need you, but realize that there's nothing wrong about their relationship, at least from the age difference standpoint. After all, they are both adults.

    OK thank you all I guess that's cleared it all up and I will just be there if my friend is to need support and thank you all once again

    If they don't have an issue with the age, you shouldn't, just be a supportive friend...

    They are both consenting adults.

    Consenting adults, don't ask, don't tell.
