What do you mean 'way apart'? 15 years? 50 years? When does it become 'creepy'? Apart from this being a bit of an ageist comment, some characters are immortal, while others have been de-aged. Capt. America is technically very old, Wolverine is even older. Logan is what, 120yo? But he did have some sort of relationship with Squirrel Girl, who is maybe in her early 20's?

What makes a relationship with an age difference 'creepy'? Is it about the looks? Then what about shapeshifters? Mystique can look as young or as old as she wants. Is it about stamina? Take Magneto, he's about 80, but the shape he's in? He could easily have a working relationship with a 20-year-old. Or is that creepy? ;-) Or maybe it's about life experience? But how do you measure it?
