Question Older Man - July 13th 2010, 10:49 PM

I'm 16 and I'll be 17 next week. The guy I like just turned 21 and I think he is going to ask me out on Friday. He's a good christian and doesn't smoke, drink, or do drugs of any kind. He is the nicest person ever and I don't even realize hes older than me until someone mentions it. Am I being to naive about this? Should I date him or not?

If you're attracted to him and want to know him better then I see no problem with it. You have to learn from you're own mistakes anyway.

There is no problem going out with older guys! If you like him and you think that you two are going to be good for each other, go for it girl! There is no problem in that at all!
Age is just a number(:


There's no one else as lovely as you,
and no one else has my heart.

No harm at all Likes been said already; Age is just a number.


[x] Even though I'm the sacrifice,
You wont try for me, not now,
Though I'd die to know you love me,

I'm all alone,

Isn't something missing?
Isnt someone missing me [x]

Baby, i want you to be my superman.

It's not even that big of an age difference. I don't see any harm in it. If you're into him, you should definitely go for it! Good luck.

Go for it. But as you know, get to know him before you decide to be official about dating him.


I came here to help out, so if you wanna talk or just need someone to bounce ideas or issues off of or something else then send me a message and I will reply as soon as I can.

Great to hear it, congrats. 4 years difference isn't really much to worry about at all, especially if he's trustable. And a little late but happy birthday too.

Re: Older Man - July 21st 2010, 06:31 PM

thats not a big age difference my mates 19 and is dating a 48 year old! a 3 -4 year age gap is fine, anything more than that to me seems a little bit wrong.


♫ a blood red bracelet thats all thats feeding me ♫

the girl who always seemed unbreakble finally
BROKE
the girl who seemed strong
CRUMBLED
the girl who always laughed
CRIED
the girl who never stopped trying finally
GAVE UP

she let her fake smile fade and as she did a tear rolled down her cheek and she whispered

' i can't do this anymore'
