natashalove Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 My sister is 24 (July, 1991) and she likes a boy who is younger than her (Jan, 1993). She looks younger than the guy though. He is taller and looks older than her. Is this good, in terms of relationships/dating? Link to post Share on other sites
Empyrea Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 There's literally NOTHING that can be said about their potential relationship based on that information. So he's a couple years younger, yet we know nothing about their compatibility, maturity, goals and values. It's not good nor is it bad in and of itself. I was in a happy, compatible LTR with a guy two years younger than me, I barely noticed. I suggest you let them figure out if they're compatible or not for themselves. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
TaraMaiden2 Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 My husband is 5 years younger than I (Married 4 years, together 11). My grandmother was 11 years OLDER than my grandfather. They had 8 kids and lasted 61 years. Sorry, what was your question again....? I don't know why if it's ok for a guy to be 2 - 5 years older than a woman, why suddenly it's so weird or bizarre to find a woman that same degree older than the man? Why is this so significant? Why does it suddenly matter, or become relevant? Seriously, I'm asking... Because I think it's a load of hogwash, myself. Link to post Share on other sites
madjac74 Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 The OP is probably the same age as the guy and has boyfriend envy and thinks the sister should find someone her own age and stop dipping into her dating pool. Link to post Share on other sites
RedRobin Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 2 to three years, plus or minus is considered the same age. 22 and 24. Right? She is not dating 'a younger man'. Now, if the guy was barely legal and she was 24, I might have a problem with it. Same as I would if the girl was barely legal and the guy was 24. Link to post Share on other sites
