hm, i don't think there's anything inherently wrong with dating someone 10 yrs your junior. Most girls i've been with in recent years have been around 5 years younger (i'm 29). recently i came close (i think?) to dating a girl who was 18... i didn't find out her age until i'd hung out with her a few times, and by then it didn't bother me. I'd figured that she was around 22-23, from both her appearance and the level of maturity she displayed during conversation. Those things matter to me more than age. Of course, it might have been different if i found out she was 17... a line has to be drawn somewhere! anywayz, that didn't workk out (yet!!) for unrelated reasons, but my point is i wouldn't have hesitated to date this woman based on her age.
To the person who said that a man dating a girl 10 years younger could only be interested in 1 thing... get your head out of your ass and speak for yourself, buddy. I'm gonna be 30 in a week, and at this point in my life the last thing i'm looking for is a purely sexual relationship with some naive young chick who's impressed by my maturity. i've been there, done that before i was 23. If i can't connect with someone on an intellectual or spiritual level, then it just ain't fucken worth it. and the truth is i've met 18-23 year olds who i can share waaay more of a connection with than many 25-30 year olds - and vice versa.

I think it's different for everyone.
It's probably been mentioned time and time again, but it has to do a lot with your mindset and where you both are in your lives. It's probably hard to find much in common with someone who is in highschool if you're a 9-5er (not to say that wouldn't work, because it does and has.) I think that once you get to a certain point in life, it ceases to matter as much. I'm 20 and I've been in a relationship someone 7 years older than me for a year and a half and it's never been an issue. I can tell you that if I tried to pull off this kind of relationship when I was like 16, I think both our families would take issue with it. |

Oh and it's a lot easyer to get a lay off of older chicks cause they are getting desprate for marage and shit after 22-25. Way easyer to play them. And then again at lot girls that are 18-20 often have not been very sexual active so there for aren't on the hunt of it.

Bev: I think its more of a maturity/mindset/experience thing. Some people seem to be too stubborn and/or ignorant to look past a number. Ten years REALLY isnt that big of a gap. As long as you have gone through puberty etc, there's a point where 5, even ten years really isn't THAT big of a gap if both the people are in the same mindset/maturity level and aren;t 12 or something. I thinka majority of the time older guys are scum and go after young girls because they think they can take advantage of them, and they usually can. But there are people out there that aren;t complete assholes, and there are young women out there that have priorities other than how there makeup looks and who J-los getting married to next. How is it so hard to believe that once someone gets past a certain point in there life, ten years really isn;t THAT big of a gap. I agree that its a stretch, and anything over that is getting a little ridiculous, but it is possible. I've gone out with guys who were younger than me, and guys who were way older than me. I can honestly say those are some of the best most respectfull relationships i've had. You just have to find the right person to have it with, and make sure they arent there just for the booty. |

I have to agree with 9963 or whatever numbers those were, and valerie. I think i've been used or attempted to be used for ass by more guys my age than any other. Most guys my age are immature when it comes to relationships.. they are scared and still think that the most important thing in life is to come off macho and promiscuous to their buddies. i dont need that. we allready pointed out that females usually mature faster than males, and that getting ass isn"t always number 1 on their list.. so why is it so bad if we are basically considered an adult (we cn vote, drive, live on our own etc) and want to have a relationship with someone who doesnt sit on their ass all day smoking pot and playing video games before attempting to shove your head in their crotches while never even considering having a relationship with us?!? Now not ALL guys my age are like that, and i seem to fall for video game playing potheads (but they also work and have experience in life and love), and I do also know men in their 40s that have accomp[lished nothing and are still very naive. So if someone comes along that treats you right, and is on an equal level than you.. why throw that away because they are a few years older than you?

yo - what about older girls and younger guys?
No comments about that? I dont know if some of you would have the same reservations about that...but isnt that old fasioned to think of females as being naive and guys as being dogs? I got the hots for a guy six years my junior - hes not even allowed in clubs! So am I a sicko and a perv like all the dudes whove been gettin a hard time? Come on, this guys no newbie...he knows exactly what he's up to! ps holla back young-in |

it's easy to act like you know it all when you don't have to worry about the roof over your head or the food on your table. if i had kids and my 17 year old daughter wanted to date a 27 year old, id be inclined to tell her that if she's going to be an adult in adult relationships, she better start acting like an adult and paying rent. or paying for her tuition. then i'd give her a pamphlet about std testing. there would be no animosity about it or anything. but if you want to be grown up in a grown up relationship, i believe to make it work you have to be on the same page. there's a different between 'being responsible' and 'being mature'. a 6 year old who puts his toys away is responsible. he isn't mature. |
