How old is too old?, should age really be a factor Options

[aznlyka]

it seems as women grow older and more mature, how much older a guy is than the chick doesn't seem to be such an issue. my mom is 45 and my dad 53, that's not a big deal, am i right? 8 year diff, but old is old, lol.

but then i JUST TURNED 18 and there's this coworker thats 25. 7 year diff, but that seems wrong to probably the majority of on lookers. i'm not sleeping with him, or in a relationship, but there's definetly something between us, but it feels like it's wrong to even think of starting a relationship with the dude.

when ladies get older and wiser, it seems more socially acceptable to be with a guy who's 5, 6, 7, ... 10 years older because they are women who know what they're doing, who has lived life and experienced relationships. i'm 18, i have a whole lot yet to experience.

maybe i'm not as mature as i feel i am, but i really like this guy, and i'm sure he likes me, but i only just turned 18 and he's 25. what to do? what to think?

ladies, this issue should be discussed.

If you like him that much, I say go for it.
It's highly likely you will get the people that give you weird looks when they find out the age difference..butI think you are both adults and it's not so bad. If you were still a teenager in high school that'd be a different story.
I'm 15 and my boyfriend is a year and 3 months older than me. Some people think that'sa lot (i don't think so at all)
like a previous poster said, age is just a number.
