Dont do it tweet. Most of the guys who are that old and want to do what they call date down, only want one thing and you know what that is. Besides hes 19 and he still doesnot have a girlfriend? He sounds like damaged goods. Big Grin

He sounds like a really nice guy and all but im a little nervous about the age difference, and I KNOW my mom wouldnt be ok with it. But i dunno, i havent even decided if im gonna meet him yet..

I would try to find someone younger because you are most likely going through the same things and are on the same emotional level.

Never limit yourself when it comes to relationships. But consider this, why does and 18 year old man want a relationship with a 14 year old girl? Big Grin

I think the age difference isn't a good thing, right now anyway. If you really care about him, wait a few years.

as long as you both feel comfortable with it. and be careful of legal reprocussions. but if you're happy, and he's happy, go for it.

Do whatever your comfortable with. Just make sure you know your limits, and make sure he knows too. Of course, that goes for any relationship, regardless of age.

I'm 22 and my girlfriend is 17, which isn't really that bad I don't think. We're pretty much even as far as hobbies/interests/beliefs go.

I don't think age should be considered unless parents are staunchly opposed to it. Granted, age isn't much of a factor out of high school, but there are some people (girls) who are better uh, "prepared" than others.

I agree with jookly. You are the only one who can decide that. Just do whatever makes you happy and don't let other people get to you. Its your relationship not theirs.
