hay, smile

Its up to you and the guy in youre life whether you will let the age difference be a problem. As-long as he knows that you are a lot younger and haven’t gone through half the stuff he has and respects that, then you shouldn’t have a problem.

Hope this helps smile

no way!
age doesnt matter. im 15, my boyfriend is 18.
he is only just about 2 years older then me.
people might think its weird but its really not.
some people are just jealous, and thats alot of what i got.
im still with him today and im loving it.
you have nothing to worry about.

i hoped this helped in someway smile

Me and my partner have been together for 3 wonderful years, we have had our ups and downs due to age difference. I am 22 and he is 18. I wanted to go out to the clubs when we first started dating but he wasn’t old enough, so I waited and now we go together. Age is just a number and if you can handle the life style of a 24 year old then go for it but each age group has their pros and cons weigh them out and decided whats best for you and him.

I think it matters.

Did you know your body and brain doesn’t finish developing until your 25?

Unless you have a very clear identity and know what you want- your likely to change- unlike someone in their mid 20’s.

Also ppl in the mid 20’s have lived more and have matured. I know a couple that met when she was 15 and he was 23. Now shes 22 and they are married but its been hard on them both.

I think if the age gap happens in your early 20’s onwards- its fine- cuz you have stopped growing and you know what you want.

Theres a 3.5 year old gap between me and my hubby. We have been together since I was 15, but I was very careful not to rush into anything as I knew I was young.
we were together 3 years b4we got engaged and together another two after that b4 we got married.

Good luck

I am 17 and my fiancée is 25 but we don’t see it as 8years because in our hearts and minds we are equal in every way. Age only matters to those that let it bother them (and pearents(with good reason).

I really don’t think it matters. My boyfriend just turned 20 and I’m 16.  I think that as long as you both know what you want and that he treats you respectfully then its fine. and of course the fact that you make each other happy.

I think age matters to an extent, but as long as you are both wanting the same things then there should be no troubles.
I think people judge gaps of 4 or more years if you are younger, and I understand why, I mean there is the situation of sex (the older person may be ready and the younger person may not be) and if the relationship was long term there is the thought of children, if you are seeing a guy 5 years older than you he will probably want kids alot earlier than you would be ready which may compromise your relationship and/or education/job.

your still at school and he isn’t. think it through yourself before you get too serious because you will realise later on how important your edication is, and no i’m not your wise grandma! i don’t think so tho! a two or three year gap only just makes the cut for ok untill you have finnish school and the gap doesn’t matta. when ur 32 he will be 40! scary :(
