Opinions on dating younger people?
Anyone have any experiences with dating younger people? I met this girl that I am kind of talking to, shes mature but shes 18 and just graduating high school.
When I was 18 I dated a 24 year old girl and it lasted three years...but I have never done the reverse and dated a younger girl. I mean I look at how much I changed between 18 and now and my whole mindset is different...I wonder if that would make a relationship unstable ya know?

Man o man,
I'm 22, the question is just not about the age but all about how you get along with her. Don't see thing more complicated then it should be. Go ahead if it fits back off if not (Or just have fun and relax). Life habitually is doing things the good way, sit back and watch the show. Overanalyzing a question always makes the solution to blurr.

KT- yea I just got divorced about a month ago but I was seperated for 11 months from my ex before the divorce. I am not trying to be in a serious relationship, I was just curious what other people thought thats all.

standard rule: 1 day older than your daughter (or baby sister), 1 day younger than your mother.
All BS aside - you're 22, she's 18. You are both too young to do anything but have fun. So do that - don't look for anything else. Just have a good time.

I'm not sure what you're looking for when u ask about other people's experience. I mean there's not really any advice we can give. There's no guide lines of magic activities that people do when they're dating someone younger. Just be yourself when you're with her, see how you guys get along. Date her like any other woman. Treat her with respect, do what u guys both enjoy and see how it goes from there. You're only 22, haha. I'm 22 as well. My gf is 20 but she's probably wayyy more mature than i am. But we get along just fine.
One thing though, 18 yr olds might still be in the phase of figuring themselves out. So they will change alot, and are not sure of what they want. That could be frustrating Last edited by Lifter101; 02-17-2007 at 02:03 AM.

My daughter and myself were both very serious at 18...but she had no intention of settling down with anyone...I deeply regret that I did settle down when I knew I wasn't ready. Just enjoy having someone in your life. You still need time to heal from what you have just gone through with your ex. BTW....I've locked this thread as a few of you seem to have forgotten that this is the serious section. Basically...if you cannot say something constructive. Do not say anything at all.

i've deleted the posts and unlocked hawk
members keep it clean or have the troll stick on your head... my girlfriend is 19 and i am 24, i can see a difference is life stages but not so much maturity  She's going to work abroad for 6 months and quitting her full time job, after all she can just come back and reform things... she's young so why not. i afterall have rent to pay, loans and lifes burdens plus my ex was 32 so i'm maybe compensating

I only dated 1 guy that was younger than me. He was only 2 years younger, but he was very mature for his age at the time. He was and still is very business oriented. He co-owned his own business at 21 with his brother. Unfortunately, things just didn't work out in the end, but we are still friends.
I don't have a problem with dating anyone younger or older than me.

When I met my wife she as 18 and I was 22, 4 1/2 yr diff. It all depends on the person. We have now been married 17 years, but we waited 11 years for her to get pregnant the first time. Age is all relative, get to know her and decide for yourself and tike your time.

I've dated a lot of girls, and there's really not much anyone can do. Every girl is different, so asking for advice is exactly like this,
"Anyone have advice on someone you've never met and probably never will meet?" It won't work, besides your 22. 4 years wouldn't have flung your mindstate into something completely different. The only time 4 years would have a huge impact would be when your an infant, or when your going through puberty. And who gives a crap about advice for the girls? If it works, she likes you and you like her, go for it. If not, who cares. Advice on the topic of the opposite sex is absolutely useless in every context.

I was told at a party last week that the scientific equation to determine just how young you can go is to take ur age, divide it by 2 and add 7. So for me, I am 18, it would be 16... has anyone else heard this before?

younger is better! I've always dated younger! Maybe I'm just real immature and dont look my age....
 This is just my opinion. I think most women prefer older men! ;-) Last edited by fitme; 03-01-2007 at 03:16 PM.
