Is he too old or should I go for it?

Really really ask yourself about this. You are 19, he is 26. I don't care how mature you think you are, that doesn't matter. What do you have to talk about? How can you both relate to one another? Its enough of a gap to look skeptical. so really make sure he wants you for you and not just because he thinks he can trick you into doing things you might regret later.

Scientist have developed a mathematical formula to see the appropriate age difference between a couple.

To work out how young a person you can date
Age divide by 2, plus 7

To work out how old a person you can date
Your Age minus 7 x 2

So your 19 years old. 19 - 7 = 12 x 2 = 24. You can date up to 24 years old, any older and it creepy.
Only joking. This is a bit of harmless fun. But it does show a broad range of appropriate ages.

If the age difference isn't a problem with you, then it isn't a problem. Some people do like older men/women, and there nothing wrong with that.

WARNING: Men are scum and some men will use women, hurting their feeling with out a second thought and throw them away as soon as they are done. If you're looking for a boyfriend and not an evening of pleasure then it would be a high risk relationship. The risk being you leaving the relationship worse than you started, feeling used and bitter,
You are only just 19. He is 26. Ask your self this, when you are 26 can you see your self dating a 19 years old boy? Obvious I have very few facts about this chap so can't make a opinion but, Ask your self why this guy would be interested in you? What can he, a 26 year old man get from a relationship with you, a 19 year old girl. (sorry at 19 your still a girl.) It could be you have a lot in common, go to the same church, or he could be after something more sinister. But, if all your after is a physical relationship and don't mind you both mutually using each others bodies as a slab of meat, then you're both consenting adults.

Recently a newspaper in the UK ask reader to send in and vote for the best advice you could give to someone who was at high school. The best advice was. "girls, if you 15 and dating a 23 years old guy, it does mean your hot, it means your dating a loser."

I am almost exactly in the same position as you right now. Same ages and everything. But I used to work with this guy, as soon as he quit he started texting me a lot and eventually told me that now that we don't work together he feels like he can hit on me-which was great at first because I've liked him for a while now. But I quickly found out that he is not interested in a real relationship-he just wants to fool around. Even though he doesn't usually act like there is a 7-year age difference, it becomes extremely obvious every now and then and I just don't think it could work out between us because we are in such different place in our lives.

So my advice is to find out what he is looking for in a relationship if you don't already know, and consider where both of you are in your lives right now and if those places are compatible.

I wish you luck and hope it works out better for you than it has for me!

Age is just a number. If it's meant to happen it will. Sometimes playing against the odds works out in ones' favor. You only live once so make it worth your while. I say go for it!

i think you should go for it . he might be more experienced, but u'll learn. and I really don't think that age matters, if he really likes you, and you do too, you'll go for it!
