How can i get over the age difference!!
Hey there, i guess i just feel the need to blog here for some other opinions of people that aren't my friends, or to see if anyone else has been in the same situation. I am a 32 year old women, and i have met a 19 year old guy with a great personality and heart, and we have hit it off right away. I have never dated a guy this young before, but have dated younger then me, as well as older. So far from what i know from this guy, he is mature beyond his years, as he's had to grow up fast because he didn't have the greatest family life, and had to learn to take care of himself from a young age. I have dated guys older then me who act like they are 16...so i guess what i am asking is should age really matter here. I can't seem to let go of the age difference!! I mean we are both legal adults, and its just "there" with us, we have connected on so many levels. I am not sure what to do, as i really like him, but seem to keep bringing up the age difference, which is making him uncomfortable...he hates that i am making age a problem. How can i help myself get past this, and just accept it and learn to just look at him as a guy i am dating, not a "19 year old guy i am dating". We have not slept together yet, so its not about sex. I have gotten nothing but good feedback from my friends and i do know many other people with 10-12 year age differences that turn out to be great and end in marriage. We've been dating a month now, but have known one another for 6 months. Is there anyone out there that has been in the same situation that has any advice, or even someone who hasn't been there, but feels they have some input they can throw my way, i would greatly appreciate it!! Thank-you,
