Parents of daughters! 19 year old dating a 17 year old ?
Thanks for all of your candid responses! Even though I really wanted to hear from other parents (Thanks, Wyatt & Lexi, your remark about 2 different worlds really resonated!) your input was helpful. Thanks, Ana, you sound ages older and wiser than your 16....Thanks for the link, Bast.....As for my daughter, she's not interested. She said he's too weird. I do trust her and allow her to make decisions....I was just having a momfreak & needed someone else's take on the situation.
My underage daughter is dating an older guy...?
Sweety you just asked 5 min ago as yourself about this matter. Now you're pretending to be your parents. You are avoiding how old this guy is, which is suspicious. We have way to little info to go on. Maybe this dude is some kind of freak for all we know. If your parents have done a good job so far in teaching you how to become a responsible adult individual, you need to give their opinion some consideration. Don't turn it into a power struggle.
I'm a 20 year old female dating an 18 year old male?
I know I'm only two years older than him but this boy has def "knocked me off my feet". He is still in High School, and I recently found that he still plays video games ALOT. as I am dating him, I am realizing that he is not nearly as experienced as I am when it comes to certain things. What attracts me too him his is charm, and laid back attitude, he is very smart, and has goals and seems very determined, oh and not to mention...HOT!!! I've NEVER dated anyone younger than me, or anyone my age for that matter, this is new for me...any advice???
Is an 18 year old girl too young to date a 30 year old man?
Hi, I just turned 30 years old. In the past year, I have dated women as old as 36 and as young as 20. Now, I'm not trying to be a player. I am sincerely trying to meet a girl who really bonds with me. With that being said, what do you think about me dating an 18 year old? She made a great first impression, and I'm going to pursue her anyways. I just want to know what random people think about it. Thanks in advance.
Is it okay for a 50-year-old man to date an 18-year-old girl?
Anonymous because I post a lot on here and this one has been on my mind a lot lately.A 19 year old gap student was volunteering at a high school where I was doing some work with the students.I could feel she was sizing me up for some reason.This girl was small and ” mousey” in appearance but quite attractive for my tastes in women .. Except she looked younger than some of the other students.I went to the school several times over the course of 2 weeks and she always found a way of talking to me after the sessions ended. Eventually she asked if I wanted to have dinner withe her one night.I was married to a drunk and was contemplating leaving her. Had not had sex of any kind for about a year except for masturbating so we went out to dinner.Right from the beginning it was obvious where this was going. I took the lead and we ended up at the motel I was staying at. The sex was excellent for both of us. But I really did not want to continue the relationship.Ironically I had already decided to leave my wife and when I got home she was so drunk I lost it and walked out. I moved into a small flat immediately and got on with my life.I still had contact with the girl and eventually continued the sex part. It was very good of course. In the end we moved in together. The relationship lasted 4 years and was mostly very good in all ways. She got a Permanent Resident visa through our relationship.However in the end I felt the my being 46 and her being 23 was not going to work. So we split up. She ended up getting a doctorate in Genetics and I have not heard from her since. That was nearly 20 years ago and I still remember how it was.
What do you think about a 18 year old [girl] dating a 35 year old [man]?
Absolutely nothing wrong with it at all. There are some ladies who have better relationships with much older guys than immature young ones who usually have nothing to show for. I am one of those women who date only much much older men, and frankly, all my best relationships are with these men who are at least 20 years older than I am. They are financially much better off, they are better provider, they treat women better and they take better care of their partners. And they are mature enough to understand Love, Trust and Mutual Respect come in one package when it comes to good relationships. Now I am engaged to be married to my bf of 3 years and he is 30 years older than I am. And we are both very very happy together. So if your friend is happy with her older boyfriend, and if you value your friendship with her, you should be happy that she is happy.
As a 23-year-old man, am I too old to date a 19-year-old woman?
This question hit home for me.I'm surprised at the people who suggested to not date someone due to age differences because “you’d have nothing in common”. Do the people who think that also believe people from different countries should not date, as they did not grow up the same way? The concept is very ignorant in both applications.My husband and I met when I was 18 in my first year of college. He had been in the military and lived a bit of life before returning to school at age 26. We met in a class study group and hit it off immediately. We had so much in common, love of silly zombie movies, hiking, adventuring, crazy coding creations, and volunteering. The age difference never bothered me. If anything, the differences in childhood just added more topics to talk and laugh about. I remember fondly when he brought over to my apartment Dark Crystal and Labyrinth to share some movies from his childhood that I hadn't seen yet. They gave us both a good laugh at how far movies have come since the 1980s! Even though we have an 8/9 year age difference, we do still have some similar childhood memories. For instance, we both loved Indiana Jones and He-Man as children even though we are years apart in age.He wanted to meet my family early on (within the first couple months if dating) and let me know that he was anxious about meeting them, as he was worried about being judged as creepy or too old just because of his age. I told him they would love him, and once the met him they did and still do. I remember meeting his parents for the first time and being surprised at them being reproachful due to nothing other than my age. They thought that I was likely to cheat on their son or otherwise break his heart due to nothing other than my age.Current day, I just turned 30 and my husband is 38. We have two great kids and a home filled with happiness and laughter. I couldn't have dreamed up a more kind, honest and supportive partner. Differences in backgrounds are not what make relationships fail. A 4 year difference is not a game changer by any means. Once you're 18 or older, age is just a number.
14 year old girls dating men?
I see it online, and I see it in public. 14 year old girls dating guys in their 20s! What kind of dumbass parent lets their 14 year old daughter date a 22 year old man! Do they really think that she's not gonna have sex with him, or even get pregnant? I mean 14 year olds dating is fine, but not 14 year olds dating adults! Thats insane! And Im not being sexist. I've NEVER SEEN or HEARD of a 14 year old BOY with an adult WOMAN! Its always the young girls. Not all of them though, I dont want to sound like im stereotyping. Not even most. Its a small number but the number should be 0!
Is it wrong for a 40 year old guy and an 18 year old girl to date if she's still in high school?
So I am a man a little older than the guy you mention in your question. Do I think it’s right? Here’s my take.You both have infatuation in common. He’s excited to be with a young, attractive woman who turns him on. He probably feels a little younger as well being with you and that is exciting for him.You on the other hand, are happy to be with an older, more mature man. He’s probably very different from the guys your same age; much more mature, interesting, and he can afford to do things for you that guys your age can’t.But here’s the problem; other than these things, what is your relationship built on?Do you like the same music, have the same friends, like the same activities? Can you imagine yourself taking a 40-year old man… to a college freshman party? Will he buy beer for all the underage drinkers? What would he talk about to your friends? On the other hand, can you imagine yourself going to a party where everyone… is your parents age? What are you going to talk about to them?Let’s say you both were to try and make a go of it, will you want to be with a 60-year old man… when you are 38?If you’re both just having fun, you’re not a virgin, and you are aware of this, then enjoy it for what it is; a short-term fling with an older man that *hopefully* enriches your life in some way.But realistically, he’s more interested in you because of your age and beauty than anything else. It’s important that you are aware of this.My advice is to be careful, don’t be taken advantage of, and realize that age isn’t always a number; sometimes it represents a different place in life. And I’m not sure you want to be where he is or vice-versa.
