"...19?"

"19."

"I thought you were already 19?"

"I meant I'll be 19 this year..."

I'm dating an 18-year-old.



But... he's smart, he's kind, he makes me laugh, and he's freakin' adorable, so... we'll see how it goes... (ugh... stupid slow Internet... I'll try this again from work tom)...

I know a guy who was 18 dating a 26 year old in med school. He told her he was 25 and she didn't find out the truth until they were engaged. They ended up marrying and have been very happy to this day. If he treats you right and makes you laugh, sounds like a winner

Don't base your relationship on age. Each person matures differently. If everything was based on maturity 50% of HS boys would still be in a 3rd grade class room learning fractions based on sections of a pizza.

I've gone on dates with older women; nothing great, three, four years difference max. I've always enjoyed it. Most of the women around me in the dorms/student apts are foolish, immature; not really worth my time or energy.

If he seems nice, go for it. The most you can lose is a few dates.

I'm 32, my wife (as of last week) is 39. You guys are younger and closer. Go for it. BEsides, you know what they say about guys in their teens...

Bah! 19 to 23 no biggie, you're looking hot so he should be feeling good about it, plus you seem to be a nice girl.
Age is really all about people having too much time on their hands picking over what other people do with their time, dont sweat it out so much!

Age certainly does matter! Girls get more desperate as they get older...why do you think ATOT has so many SOs that are older?
 

Dezign, no biggie! 4 years difference isn't frowned upon as much as more years [in age difference].

My sis is currently interested in a good-looking 20 year old guy. She's more than 4 years older than he but not up to 8 years. He's got his acts together and really attracts her. He digs her too. For some reason, she always attracts men of all types, but the most serious guys are guys younger than she or guys who just love assertive women and go-getters. Personally, I'm also finding younger men more attractive. I used to like older guys and laughed off the idea of seeing a guy more than a year younger than I. However, I started to change my attitude. I love younger guys, but not extremely younger. I would be comfortable with at most 5 years younger. Anything more sounds more uncomfortable to me, and it makes me think of myself as a controlling person. In my view, it's controlling women that usually go for guys more than 5 years older. However, things are starting to change now. Oprah did a show about younger men and older women together. It was interesting. It's getting more common. (Maybe it would be less of controlling women now?)

Most importantly, it's starting to become acceptable for women to date men younger than they. I guess Tina Turner wasn't that persuasive, but more celebrities endorsing it is attracting the interest of the viewers, who are typically followers.

So, chill and enjoy the company of the man you're interested in!

"Dezign, Donna is 14 years older than me

Edit: and we'll be married 14 years next year"


You know Moshquerade in real life? :Q

WTF HE LIED TO YOU?

I bet he has AIDS, Herpes, Clymidia, and he is actually gay.

Edit: When I was 18 I dated a 21 year old, but she had the same trouble you did.

You two are at two very different points in your life and I think it would be awkward on both of you to have any sort of serious relationships.

Just my $.02...free after MIR.

this guy is funny

Funny, I think my attraction to young looking women will get me in to a lot of trouble one day, too.

Don't sweat it D. He is probably happy to find an older woman. He probably hopes that your head is screwed on straight, or at least straighter than the 18, 19, and 20 year olds he deals with most of the time.

Dezign: don't you want more distinguished guys... people more your age, but are young looking?

I lived together with a 30 year old gf when I was 22.
In the end, it didn't work out but the age difference had nothing to do with it

if you like the guy, go for it
