I'm going to be 17 in 2 days...and I think he is 23 or 24..is that bad?? I don't plan on doing anything with him or anything like that, just go out or something...am I set for disaster??

Re: Age Difference.......
I don't believe in age difference being a bad thing if the feeling is there. I've been out with guys who were, at the time, 4 years older than me. I liked them a lot, so I thought it was all cool. I don't see what the big deal is unless they are treating you wrong and preying on you in a paedophile kinda thing. I say go for it if you both like each other Make sure you know him and trust him first though

Re: Age Difference.......
By all means get to know the guy, I mean, thats how relationships start right? But just be vigilant. If you have met him before then you're probably ok.
All it comes down to is your comfort, if you think you're ok with it, by all means

Re: Age Difference.......
I only believe in age differences to a certain extent. If it is like a 20-30 year old going out with like a 12 year old I would be worried. But because you are 17 and he is only 24 then thats fine.
Age is just a number - if you like the guy and he likes you then why not?
Good luck darling,

Now here you go again, you say you want your freedom
Well who am I to keep you down
It's only right that you should play the way you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound
Of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost
Well It's only me that wants to wrap around your dreams
I love you...

Re: Age Difference.......
well the law is that since ur 17 - u need parental acknowledgment of u going out with this guy who is 24
if u were 18 then ur clean,
but yea i dont have any problem, but what i really dont get is why a 24 year old looking for someone 7 years younger, can he not get a girl in his own age group?

Re: Age Difference.......
Age difference is something which shouldn't be a problem within relationships. If neither of you has a problem with it, go for it!

Re: Age Difference.......
ohk my friend is 15 and her bf is like 28 and though it is a big age difference and i dont think i would personally do that i support her 150% he makes her happy and i have never seen her this happy and well as far as i am concerned all that really matters in the long run is weather or not she is happy and he treats her good so if you really wanna get to know this guy then i say go for it and if anyone has a problem tell em that their opinion doesnt matter because what it all comes down too is what you think and how the relationship makes you feel

Re: Age Difference.......
Well, in my opinion, I don't think age matters. Well, to a certain degree. If you're 13 and going out with a 38 year old, that's kinda gross. But, once you're old enough to make your own decisions about who you want to be with, age really doesn't matter. I would just be careful though. Just keep in mind that you are only 17 and he's 23/24. Other than that, I hope you have fun!
