It can be weird but doesn't have to be. I did it before but he was too clingy. And thats odd cause i like a clingy dude. But he was clingy too soon. He was trying to get me to move into his college dorm with him lol. Mind you, i had graduated college while he was going onto his second year. Plus we only knew eachother less than a month. He was moving too fast too soon. I mainly prefer someone same age or within a 2-3 year age gap

Nope, you two are both adults and the age gap really isn't anything to worry about, it's only 4 years! Is it weird if a 23 year old man dates a 19 year old girl? I don't think so. Lots of my family have larger age gaps ranging from 4-8 years and they're in happy relationships🤷♀️
Oh my god, that's terrible, you can only date someone that is within 12 months either way of your birthday, don't you know the law.
Sorry could resist 😂 how would that be weird your both basically in the same age group. Would you be asking the question if you were 33 and he was 29? I don't think so, so why might you think it's weird at your ages?
I think it's okay for a girl to date a younger guy when she's older
my late maternal grandma was 13 years older than my grand-dad
that's why my grandma would never tell people the age difference
but you could never tell my grandma held her age good

i know why you ask, 18-21 years old are most often students and usually on university campus living in student residence, which means they'll mostly be at uni libraries, parks, look forward to nights out in bars and nightclubs and weekend pubs. The idea of dating in this scene is just laughed at.
But if the 19yr old was living with at home parents whilst at uni then thats entirely different. This 19yr old is naturally going to be 'deprived' 😅- u
it doesn't have to be weird no... but preferably, he has the mentality of an actual 19 year old, or older... and not the inexperience and immaturity of some 13 year olds, or it might get awkward for you if you have to babysit him through the date...
Honestly no considering you two are both technically adults, if the guy were under 18 than yes that be weird and really wrong. But most places considered nineteen years old as adults not to the full extent because he will still be underage to go to a bar but he is now technically an adult so no it isn't weird.
It is somewhat unusual, probably because men tend to mature later than women. Keep in mind that an age difference of four years at ages 19 and 23 is far more significant than the same age difference when older, say 29 and 33, so if the relationship were to last for a long time the age gap will seem less relevant. That said, if he’s remarkably mature for 19 years of age it should be fine. Keep alert for yellow/red flags, take things slow, and you should be fine.
Why would it be "weird"? I don't get it. Your question is weird.
No matter what age he is he's going to be a lucky man
Oh come on, it's a fuckin 4 year difference! You're not 80!
Ain’t nothing wrong with it but the looking 19 part doesn’t change anything
No it's not weird. They both aren't minors and they're in the same age group. I'm 23 and I would date a 19 year old guy
Not weird at all. At the very worst, you’re with someone who was underage less than 2 years ago. You’re both adults. In 10 years, if you’re 33 and he’s 29, no one will probably even notice, much less care about it. Don’t worry what other people have to say (except for me).
After reading "When Rabbit Howls" (I am an honors major in Phychology at University of Arkansas) I will never harp about the age gap between two non-related adults.
I was 20 when my girlfriend was 25. We have been together for pver 10 years now. Not weird.
Yeah since you’re a female dating under at your young age it tells me that you’re not good enough for older men or those your age
No there’s nothing wrong with it and its a fairly small age gap. I also wanna say your pic is hilarious
No, not at all. I’m curious as to why you would think that’s weird. 4 years isn’t much of a difference at 19 & 23 y'all are basically peers.
If it doesn't make you feel like its weird, then go for it.
I personally can't tell if a girl is 25 year old or a 19 year old specially relating to arab women.It may be unusual but weird is too strong a word. In a free society, you shouldn't use criticism in an attempt to control the behavior of others provided their behavior is legal and especially if their behavior does not harm others.
Nothing wrong with that. Just please treat him right and don't take advantage of him.
I am dating a 35.5 year old girl, so age difference with a younger guy isn't an issue.
Her friends would probably accuse her of cradle snatching. Having a number of older girlfriends, I'd say that the relationship was unlikely to last. When she finds an older marriageable man she will be off.
