And further to the point, they didn’t actually fall in love until Anakin was getting ready to graduate to knighthood. That would put him at 18, maybe 19 and her at 23/24-ish.
The common wisdom (at least in the US college I attended) for the youngest acceptable age gap for a person is to halve their age then add 7 years. So for a 24 year old, 19 is as young as their partner can acceptably be in a relationship.
I haven’t personally heard this math, and I think it’s ick and prudish personally. But you’re taking a risk getting into a relationship with someone under 25. She FAFO lol
To be fair she was also a child.

He was just nine and she was fourteen.
(14 * 0.5) + 7 = 14(9 * 0.5) + 7 = 11.5Sounds like Padme got some splainin to do.
But she also didn’t take a romantic interest in him until 10 years later.
So for reference with updated numbers. She would be 24, and he would be 19…
(24 * 0.5) + 7 = 19Well would you look at that.
What are these numbers

Ehhhhhhh
It’s certainly not the first thing I think of when I meet a couple, but now you know.
Common wisdom my ass. Its stupid is what it is. Relationships are always more complex than a math formula with one variable…
edit: sry for the crashout. I just really dont vibe with that type of oversimplification, but that doesn’t have anything to do with you. My bad.
I couldn’t possibly imagine a relationship with a 26-year-old.
Well, it’s the minimum socially acceptable age.
A 38 year old dating a 26 year old? I don’t think there’s anything socially unacceptable about that.
25 though? Well I should just call Chris Hansen right now.
Probably just a coincidence. Not an attempt at ass covering at all! Nope!
I don’t know about that. There were some significant glances in that first film. She was giving a vibe. There was something there me thinks…

My, my, this here Anakin guy…
Maybe Vader, some day later, now he’s just a small fry
He was a pre-pubescent flying ace.
Like twice his age still.
Not when they became romantically involved.
