Hey guys, I've joined this forum because I want to discuss the topic of age gaps in relationships, as in like, what's too far an age gap and the reason why that age gap gap is too far.I'm posting on a science forum because I guessing that alot of the users are pretty intelligent [:0] and can offer alot to the discussion because I'm feeling kind of lost at the moment.I started worring about it the other day when a friend of mine who's twenty five kissed another friend of mine who's like 16.
When he was called on it though, his argument was something like "Well if I'm old enough to hang out with her, I'm old enough to kiss her". It doesn't feel that simple to me though. I wanted to talk to him about it but I thought I should give the topic some thought first. To me it kind of feels like because of the age gap, he hs kind of a sexual high ground you know, like more intimidating than attractive and maybe he was unknowingly using that to his advantage. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? If you think I'm making a mountain out of a molehill please say so []
i just typed something very long and then accidentally hit delete. sigh... ok where do you live? because in the u.s. that's illegal. well... if they take it any further than kissing. secondly, a lot of young girls go through an older guy phase. i dated a twenty seven year old when i was nineteen. a girl i work with is eighteen and just started seeing a twenty five year old... the thing is, i did it to annoy my parents, and i'm pretty sure the girl at work is too.
I couldn't care less about the legal age of consent, my personal opinion is that 25 is far too old for any 16 year old - male or female. I don't think that you should date anyone more than 2 years older than you from the age of 16 - 19. Anything before 16 should stay in the same age group.If my 16 year old daughter OR son went out with a 25 year old #h*t would hit the fan and heads would roll!!!The older a person gets, it becomes less of an issue. I wouldn't be thrilled if my 21 y.o. dated a 30 y.o., but I'd learn to live it, maybe. []Personally, if I weren't married, 10 years older and maybe 5 years younger would probably be my limit.
