I still go out now and again, follow fashion, music etc exactly the same as I did from 17 up. I have looked after myself fairly well, still have all my hair and teeth lol. I still have as much in common with younger people as I do those my own age.
When I go out with a group of mates people have no idea of my age I am usually approached by girls way younger than me, if they ask we will tell them which usually shocks and they usually dont believe us. Some of my mates have long term partners over 10 years younger than them without issue.
Many old schoolmates with same age partners, got married and had 2.5 kids really young. They are now,overweight,balding, boring dressers, struggling financially and looking way older than they are. If they are happy fair play to them.
What im getting at is that the way people look at 30 can vary wildly, people look younger way longer these days. Just how many pople have you met in clubs or wherever and not really known their true age? I know a good few people in their 30's who can pass for under 25. If you met and fancied them would you run a mile if you found out their true age at a later date?
Both of these 'relationships' sound wrong to (age gap). The limit for me is 2 years older. Tend not to go for anyone younger though.
I agree. When a young lady is 15, however mature she is- in my eyes she's still a child and there is so much scope for abuse. In fact, a 15 year old girl with a 30 year old man is still illegal isn't it?
peder-pipers indeed!
Hey there little girl
Not too sure, tbh. But I have a feeling it might be.
my boyfriend is 20 and im 19, he's just over a year older than me and its the perfect gap for me

the lesson learnt is people at different ages people can have different priorities in a relationship. to me she meant everything and i envisioned a future, to her i was just a boyfriend. i'd have trouble having a relationship with anyone much younger than me now because of that.
