age difference
Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Forms: form: age differences
Senses: examples: text: I suppose the reason so many Snapefic writers pair him up with Hermione is that she's really the only choice unless you're going to introduce an original character.

text: I understand that once she has found a regular relationship, no matter the age difference, ,^([sic]) she's no longer a cougar. I'm not sure if a regular booty-call partner is enough of a relationship to break her cougarness. However, the best definition, I believe, is a cougar (as any wild cat) is on the prowl for fresh (young) meat!
