要获得月份的差异(包括开始和结束)，而不考虑日期:

DateTime start = new DateTime(2013, 1, 1);
DateTime end = new DateTime(2014, 2, 1);
var diffMonths = (end.Month + end.Year * 12) - (start.Month + start.Year * 12);

疯狂的方法，计算所有的日子，超级精确

Helper类:

public class DaysInMonth
{
    public int Days { get; set; }
    public int Month { get; set; }
    public int Year { get; set; }
    public bool Full { get; set; }
}

功能:

    public static List<DaysInMonth> MonthsDelta(DateTime start, DateTime end)
    {
        
        var dates = Enumerable.Range(0, 1 + end.Subtract(start).Days)
          .Select(offset => start.AddDays(offset))
          .ToArray();

        DateTime? prev = null;
        int days = 0;

        List < DaysInMonth > list = new List<DaysInMonth>();

        foreach (DateTime date in dates)
        {
            if (prev != null)
            {
                if(date.Month!=prev.GetValueOrDefault().Month)
                {
                    DaysInMonth daysInMonth = new DaysInMonth();
                    daysInMonth.Days = days;
                    daysInMonth.Month = prev.GetValueOrDefault().Month;
                    daysInMonth.Year = prev.GetValueOrDefault().Year;
                    daysInMonth.Full = DateTime.DaysInMonth(daysInMonth.Year, daysInMonth.Month) == daysInMonth.Days;
                    list.Add(daysInMonth);
                    days = 0;
                }
            }
            days++;
            prev = date;
        }

        //------------------ add last
        if (days > 0)
        {
            DaysInMonth daysInMonth = new DaysInMonth();
            daysInMonth.Days = days;
            daysInMonth.Month = prev.GetValueOrDefault().Month;
            daysInMonth.Year = prev.GetValueOrDefault().Year;
            daysInMonth.Full = DateTime.DaysInMonth(daysInMonth.Year, daysInMonth.Month) == daysInMonth.Days;
            list.Add(daysInMonth);
        }

        return list;
    }

扩展的Kirks结构与ToString(格式)和持续时间(长ms)

 public struct DateTimeSpan
{
    private readonly int years;
    private readonly int months;
    private readonly int days;
    private readonly int hours;
    private readonly int minutes;
    private readonly int seconds;
    private readonly int milliseconds;

    public DateTimeSpan(int years, int months, int days, int hours, int minutes, int seconds, int milliseconds)
    {
        this.years = years;
        this.months = months;
        this.days = days;
        this.hours = hours;
        this.minutes = minutes;
        this.seconds = seconds;
        this.milliseconds = milliseconds;
    }

    public int Years { get { return years; } }
    public int Months { get { return months; } }
    public int Days { get { return days; } }
    public int Hours { get { return hours; } }
    public int Minutes { get { return minutes; } }
    public int Seconds { get { return seconds; } }
    public int Milliseconds { get { return milliseconds; } }

    enum Phase { Years, Months, Days, Done }


    public string ToString(string format)
    {
        format = format.Replace("YYYY", Years.ToString());
        format = format.Replace("MM", Months.ToString());
        format = format.Replace("DD", Days.ToString());
        format = format.Replace("hh", Hours.ToString());
        format = format.Replace("mm", Minutes.ToString());
        format = format.Replace("ss", Seconds.ToString());
        format = format.Replace("ms", Milliseconds.ToString());
        return format;
    }


    public static DateTimeSpan Duration(long ms)
    {
        DateTime dt = new DateTime();
        return CompareDates(dt, dt.AddMilliseconds(ms));
    }


    public static DateTimeSpan CompareDates(DateTime date1, DateTime date2)
    {
        if (date2 < date1)
        {
            var sub = date1;
            date1 = date2;
            date2 = sub;
        }

        DateTime current = date1;
        int years = 0;
        int months = 0;
        int days = 0;

        Phase phase = Phase.Years;
        DateTimeSpan span = new DateTimeSpan();

        while (phase != Phase.Done)
        {
            switch (phase)
            {
                case Phase.Years:
                    if (current.AddYears(years + 1) > date2)
                    {
                        phase = Phase.Months;
                        current = current.AddYears(years);
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        years++;
                    }
                    break;
                case Phase.Months:
                    if (current.AddMonths(months + 1) > date2)
                    {
                        phase = Phase.Days;
                        current = current.AddMonths(months);
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        months++;
                    }
                    break;
                case Phase.Days:
                    if (current.AddDays(days + 1) > date2)
                    {
                        current = current.AddDays(days);
                        var timespan = date2 - current;
                        span = new DateTimeSpan(years, months, days, timespan.Hours, timespan.Minutes, timespan.Seconds, timespan.Milliseconds);
                        phase = Phase.Done;
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        days++;
                    }
                    break;
            }
        }

        return span;
    }
}

我们是这样做的:

public static int MonthDiff(DateTime date1, DateTime date2)
{
    if (date1.Month < date2.Month)
    {
        return (date2.Year - date1.Year) * 12 + date2.Month - date1.Month;
    }
    else
    {
        return (date2.Year - date1.Year - 1) * 12 + date2.Month - date1.Month + 12;
    }
}

假设这个月的日期不相关(即2011.1.1和2010.12.31之间的差为1)，date1 > date2为正值，date2 > date1为负值

((date1.Year - date2.Year) * 12) + date1.Month - date2.Month

或者，假设你想要两个日期之间的“平均月”的大致数字，下面的方法应该适用于所有日期，但日期差异非常大。

date1.Subtract(date2).Days / (365.25 / 12)

注意，如果您要使用后一种解决方案，那么您的单元测试应该声明应用程序设计使用的最宽日期范围，并相应地验证计算结果。

更新(感谢Gary)

如果使用“平均月份”方法，“每年平均天数”的更准确数字是365.2425。

有3种情况:同一年，前一年和其他年份。

如果日期不重要的话……

public int GetTotalNumberOfMonths(DateTime start, DateTime end)
{
    // work with dates in the right order
    if (start > end)
    {
        var swapper = start;
        start = end;
        end = swapper;
    }

    switch (end.Year - start.Year)
    {
        case 0: // Same year
            return end.Month - start.Month;

        case 1: // last year
            return (12 - start.Month) + end.Month;

        default:
            return 12 * (3 - (end.Year - start.Year)) + (12 - start.Month) + end.Month;
    }
}
