I Feel Like A Scumbag

3 years, once she's 18 not a big deal. Doomed and not advised, but not a big deal.
What? :confused: I know tons of people who are in relationships with people 3 years older/younger than them. Married too. I'd hardly say it's a "doomed" concept.

Hell, my parents are 13 years apart in age.

Sorry, maybe I wasn't to clear. Just meant an 18 (or even a 19) year old dating someone 21 or older, thats all. If the person is in their twenty's, then you cares what the age difference is.

What's the issue with a 21 dating a 18 or 19 year old. You are both in school. While one is probably getting harder classes and maybe interning, you go to school on the same campus. Wha'ts the big deal? :confused:
 
I don't see why people make such people deals over age.

Maturity is a strange thing...I see no reason why it should matter if nobody is being harmed.

I mean sure, there is some cases where the older person could take advantage of the younger lesser experienced one. But I think it's up to the parents to teach the kids about the dangers and things that can come out of such a relationship and just hope they make the right choice..that's all you can do.
And if they do happen to end up in a ****ty relationship hope they learn something from it and take it in stride. I mean, every relationship has a chance of turning out bad. For many variables and reasons..but that's life, what are you gonna do?
 
Well the basis of this thread was the thread starter was 20 and he was interested in a girl, who broke up with her bf to be with him, who is 16.

Yes, I realize that. Why not?
Different strokes for different folks. If they're happy I see no reason not to.
 
Well maybe because in some states he could get arrested for statutory rape?

Exactly.
 
Just my two shinny pennies, fo'shiggedy.
 
Are you still a scumbag? I'm not going to read everything here.

If you don't condone it.



Yes.
I've not read since the 1st post but 20-16 sounds a little 'fresh'. 20-17 doesn't seem as much of an issue to me as a year makes a lot of difference at that age. It really depends on how mature she is for her age. As long as it's legal where you are and she's mature I don't see a problem.
 
It is legal. She is mature. I act immature, but in reality I am very mature. By acting immature, I mean I am still funny.

Having given the issues the level of consideration they deserve, you are free to continue. :up:

4 years isn't too much, but your trouble is, it's the WRONG four years. If she was 20 and you were 24, it wouldn't be any big deal.

What I was gonna say.
 
It's like the old saying goes,

"If there's grass on the wicket, let's play cricket!" :woot:

Seriously dude, these days a 16-17 old is practically an adult and my rule was always 3 years older or younger (but nothing uner 16!) Ultimately if you see it going somewhere prsue it, if it's short term fun you're in dangerous territory...
