how old is TO old?

ok so there is this guy i like but hes older than me...by a few years. so i was wondering how old is to old? like 7 or 8 years is to old of more like 5 or 6? idk wat to do...HELP

~nikki

for you... maybe 5 years is too old... but once you're over 20.. then i guess nothing's ever too old..

ehhh.. hmmm how old is he exactly? Because you are only 15 and he is either 20 or 21 i am guessing. I would say that he is WAY too old. i am not saying that to just be mean or anything but yeah. I would understand if he was like 3 years older but woah. I am kinda gooing through the same thing so yeah.

best thing to do is to stick to minors... like... under 18.

well. it depends on your age and yours and his maturaty

My partner is nearly 15 years older than me and we hooked up when Iwas a legal adult but still very young. I think once you are an adult age is but a number but while you are still considered a child its probably best to stick to guys and girls of around your own age group. Then again sometimes the heart says otherwise...

thnx for all the advice you guys. it rly helps. xD

~nikki xD

the way u figure out if the person u are dating is too old is dividing his age by 2 and adding 7 for example

20 years old
10 years old
17 years old

if he is 20 and u are under 17 u r 2 young.

30
15
22

ya

This is a tricky question. I always think adults who go for minors can't associate with their own age group. Plus you always her stories about the adult who used their influence to kidnap minors. I just wouldn't risk it.

Supa fly thats quite an interesting formula you have there

It depends on your mental age, your legal age and your maturity...

To me 25 years old. If they are older than that all they want from you is sex, they dont really care about your feelings and emotions towards them.

~ONE LOVE~

^ that's the funniest post I've read in a while. As if being younger than 25 is going to mean you want a serious monogamous relationship.

by the way, you're 15 years old...

Sweetie...if you're 15 and he's over 18...he's most likely after only one thing. Stick to guys your own age, and when you turn 18, you can do whatever you want to do when it comes to guys! That's the safer way to go anyway. Some girls like yourself who fall for older guys wind up in a LOT of trouble.

I once read an article in a magazine. This lady fell in love with a 20 yr-old man when she was around your age. When he found out that she was only 15, he wanted to leave her. But she was desperate to stay with him, so he made her become a prostitue. He abused her for a long time....it was about 10 to maybe 20 years before she finally left him.

I'm not saying that ALL men are like that when it comes to younger girls...but you never know. You're young, so please stay safe. You don't want your life to be jeapordized at such a young age. Plus, you don't want to get him into any trouble, either!

its not too old unless youre like that model marring that old brady bunch guy. Hes like 20 years older then her!! ew?

it dont matter for them cause there a cute couple and they love eachother
for me to old is when i either see gray hair or
he walks with a limp =P

lol nice Danielle

If is is teens with adults, then I say 7-8 years is far too old. Once you are in your twenties it really doensn't matter anymore!!

Alrighty I have a question. What if a 15 year old (well ALMOST 15 year old)is witha just-turned-18 year old guy. they have been together for 7 months so far. Is it bad if they aren't having a sexual relationship? Do you still think it is a bad idea?

Why do people think these things? Yes some older guys do go for young girls because of sex but NOT ALL! Just because hes older doesnt mean hes just in it for sex! You dont know every single older guy going out with younger girls so you cant say. I know alot of younger girls who use older guys who love them! If it is something real and they are together for the right reasons then age is not a huge deal, however you do need to watch out for the older ones that are only looking for sex, because they are out there. Love knows no boundaries, and you can't help who you fall for. Just make damn sure hes in it for the right reasons, if he is and you two truely have feelings for each other then go for it

pretty much every older guy has raging hormones that they can't take on older women, about their age. so they prey upon the younger. yup. it's true.. very true.. just not for me.. haha i have a girlfriend older than me. woohoo. ahem... so.. still.. 98 percent of the time the guy's a perv... so yes, don't go over the 2 years or something... it's just not for you at this time. goodness can't you just try to understand that there ARE unofficial age restrictions as well as official. gawd...

Man, I am the only youngish guy who actually likes older chicks?

Women who know how to break a guy, who know how to mess with a guys head in the nicest way possible, and who most importably, won't take any crap and know something of whats important in life.

Younger lassies have always been a little bit noring for me, with a few notable exceptions.

When I was 18 I met a women who was 34, and she showed me things I'd never been shown before.

Amen to that Kev.

Nothing quite like an older lady who says, 'Boy, I'll eat you for breakfast.'

I find it strange that if an older woman goes with a younger man, then that's alright, but if it's a man then he's a predator, only out for one thing... huh! Pish!
Age has NOTHING to do with attraction between two people. I have had relationships with women 20 yrs younger and I happen to know two of my friends who are happily married and very much in love with one another... she's 30 and he's 59...

Oh, and will this post be removed as well?

Love and Light

The points that we (Kevin and I) were making only applies to people who are within the LEGAL age of consent. If you're 15 and playing 'hide the pink oboe' with a 25 year old then that's not right.

If you're legally old enough then what you like, it's your life, not the responsibility of your parents.

I agree with Lyla. Me and my boyfriend could care less about sex. That is the last thing on our minds. It is not always about sex. True love is something more. and you may say that a 15 year old doesn't know what love it. But, I tell you, you are wrong. I know, many kids who say they are in LOVE are actually only in LUST. But i do believe that younger teens do find love at a young age and stay with that person because I know a lot of people who have.

I don't know really. I was 16 and I was dating someone whom was 20 for awhile. I like people who are older then me or about my same age, but right now my boyfriend is younger then me. I don't care really though. :]

if you love eachother i guess it does not matter, why should age make a difference. but i do think its a too much when celebs are 60 and thier dating a 20 year old!

I would go to 15 years older than me.. So I'n not the person if you're looking for a "sensible" answer. But i don't think age should matter. It's about love.

For you I'd not pass 17, but then no one listens to reason here, so I'd say you're good humping the next octagenarian that happens along... just as long as he sweetens the deal properly with expensive jewellery, cell phones and clothes.. money would be prostitution, right?
