Questions: Dating

Obviously you want the children to like you. Or get along with you. But are you including them in plans when going out? Taking them along with you, paying for them to spend time with you? Buying them gifts also?

I was on social media watching a funny skit it was talking about age gaps and in it someone made a joke about this generation making certain age gaps weird which I fully agree with. The gap that was mentioned in the skit was 19 and 17 dating wise. The guy making the skit said that that’s not a weird gap at all which I agreed with and so I went to the comments mostly by accident but I saw that there were actually people in the comments trying to argue that it’s weird for a 19yr old to date a 17 yr old or that it depends on on if the girl is 17 turning 18 or if she had just turned 17. I’ll post a pic down below for reference. Now I’ve had my own fair share of problems dealing with dating I’m a bit older but I do often get girls quit a few years younger then me that take interest. Which I’ve given these girls a shot the gap is bigger then 17 and 19 but I still got some flack for it. But seriously since when did 17/19 become a weird thing they are literally within the same age bracket and the people that argue against these age gaps never make any sense with their arguments cause it’s always contradictory one I’ve heard for bigger age gaps for girls who are 18 dating older guys is that oh just cause it’s legal doesn’t mean it’s right and that 18 to 19 is still a child. But then in this context they are fully treating the age of 19 as an adult and saying 17 is a minor which it is but if 19 is still widely considered the age of a child then this gap shouldn’t be an issue. You see what I mean they pick and choose when someone gets to be an adult based on their own agenda and it’s really freakin weird. Makes me wonder what’s gonna happen in future generations ratings already shit just seems like it’s getting worse with these weird age restrictions especially since most girls within that range tend to date up woman in general tend to date guys a great deal older then them from what I seen. My mother and father have a 10 year gap. I don't know maybe I’m crazy.
