Um...we don't know how old he is, and he seems perfectly capable of acting mature. In fact, if you haven't noticed due to Cutie Mark Chronicles, he's only a few years younger than Twilight, so it's not really pedophilia. Also, Rarity isn't chasing after Fancy Pants; they barely interact outside of that one episode.

What started out as looks turned into genuine affection. Let's be honest, how many times has something not started out as looks. Heck, even Rarity wanted to go with Blueblood for title and looks, so it's not like he's the only victim of it. I think there is something genuine in their relationship, and while not technically dating, something could be there.

Though I do have to admit that outliving would be an issue seeing how most likely she will die before he does. However, the longevity of ones life should not stop someone who you are truely in love with from being together. And when it comes down to it, I'm sure they will have no regrets.

For all we know, they might not even touch on the possibilities, but it seems that the writers think it's a cute relationship idea, seeing how they made a marriage proposal with the voice actresses at a con without making it a silly joke. "Spike, I do love you but you keep eating the rocks you offer me". This is not canon, but at least they think it's cute :3
