Their Eyes Were Watching God, is a novel that captures pain, hapiness, love, and loss. Janie is an indpendent women, whose marriages have not kept her from doing what she wants. Janie marries a man who believes that a woman's role is to be at home, and care for her husband. At first it does not seem to bother Janie, but with time Janie feels like she's being detained from being herself, portraying something she's not to society. Further in the novel, Janie meets Tea Cake, whose totally the opposite from her previous husband, he's outgoing, loving, free-spirited, and young. Janie and Tea Cake struggle together, and unfortunately after a storm Tea Cake looses his life. When Janie returns home, she becomes the talk of the town, but she does not let that bring her down, and is determined to live her life. Hurston's realism and combination of real life issues captivated me; furthermore, the story in general represents the rights and determination a woman should have.
Question: Can age difference in any relationship(family, friends, love..etc.) impact one's actions or personality? How?

age difference can sometimes make a difference, it just depends on the maturity of the person. when progressing into our era, people have not matured enough to hold a proper relationship with someone older, at least not all the time. just as it happens around us, people use one another more to recieve everything, and not to give. looking out for the benefit of oneself. it all just depends on maturity.
