In the film, it's specifically been seven years since their summer romance and they are now in their mid-20's. In the book, Allie is 29 to Noah's 21 and it's been well over a decade. This was probably a [[PragmaticAdaptation choice]] made due to the casting of Ryan Gosling and Rachel [=McAdams=], both then in their mid-20's.
