I think after a certain age, the age difference doesn't really matter that much, but for you, right now, you might be too young for this kind of relationship... If he is still single ar 27 he either chose to have more fun and sex than care a lot about relationships and would probably want to do the same with you; or, he is actively searching for a lifetime partner and he might not have been lucky yet, in which case he is looking for someone more on his wavelength, more suitable as a wife, and not busy with college or still trying to figure things out... If you really like to have him as your boyfriend, expect it to only last 1-2 years at most, untill he finds a better woman. If you only want sex, then go for him. Otherwise look for other men more your age, I would say.
If you were to be 25 now and him 8 years older than you, that wouldn't be that big of a deal, because your lives would be more similar, both of you would be on your own, having a job and being free to be together in the meantime. But right now your lives are too different to make it work. You need to think about college while he is out there already working and maybe even having his own place. I don't think he would sacrifice 4-5 years of his life to not look at other, more appropriate girls for him just to stay with you until you are free of all things currently holding you back... And dropping out of college would only make him see you as just a sex partner and nothing more, because he knows that he will basically need to provide for you too, and that is a huge commitment.
u Older guys think of younger women as potentially very exciting sexually but they also question the very factors which concern you. But if I met a younger woman who had similar interests and goals as me, I would not eliminate her from consideration just because of her age. In fact, the woman with whom I am living now is 8 years younger than me but, obviously, an 8 year age difference at my age is far less significant than 8 years at your age.
Age doesn’t really bother me it’s the chemistry and connection that matters so if he treats you good then treat him good back , trust me your age isn’t going to stop him from liking you , He wouldn’t of dated you if your age effected him period , so treat him the same way he treats you , remove selfishness , that’s key to a loving relationship. Most people don’t know what that means and that’s why they end up single , Basically wear his shoes like he should be wearing yours, and you will see love grow
"I'm worried he'll see me as too immature, too young or too different for a relationship."
OK! . you are immature!. . YES!
You are young... YES! .
You are too Different... Yes!..
What kind of women men want!.
Beautiful + innocent + challenging!.
Beautiful = Young women. Between age of 18-25 yr old..
Innocent = immature women... Because they are fun...
Challenging= too different than him so it becomes a challenge!..
I hope you can do the Basic math!..
As long as you're mature enough, for example some girls will go into the party stage in their life around the early 20's, that's fine but will she still hold the same values and put work into the relationship? How will he handle transitioning through different times of her life? People can still change a lot and they might not be sure of what they really want yet at 19. If she's aware enough to be sure of what she wants then I don't see a problem with it.
Personally, I won't date anyone under 25, no matter my age. I want to make sure their party days are over and they are ready for a commitment if I am the right guy.
As far as other things, I don't mind their age as long as we get along, and have the same beliefs.
A few points
1) People mature differently so age on it's own is a whatever thing
2) As there has to be a mental connection
3) People are adults that can make their own decisions
4) There is a point where the age gap raises eyebrows depending how big it is
5) As long as it's a healthy relationship with no one being taken advantage of who cares
That age difference is no problem. When I was 27, I wouldn't have had a problem with dating a 19 year old (I had a 21 year old girlfriend then). Guys won't have a problem with it.
I'm 49. I met a girl when I was 44 who from talking to her I guessed was mid 20s. She turned out to be 19.
Physical age and emotional maturity have nothing to do with each other
It really depends what you both want out of it.
your studying and exams are the most important thing.
guys are secondary.
Younger women have less bad habits and look better. Theyre easier to coach
Depends on the woman, if she acts or tries to act a bit more mature, would be no problem to take her on for longterm relationship and just spoil her.
