I like a guy who is 5 years younger than me?

I've always gone for older guys but I recently started a band with some younger guys and I'm really into the keyboard player. I just turned 23 and he'll be 18 in November. I have never liked a younger guy and I'm almost weirded out but when you have feelings, it's kind of hard to ignore them. We have a lot of chemistry, share the same sense of humor and common interests. I think he likes me too... I just refuse to say anything about this to him before he turns 18... but even after he turns 18, do you guys think it's wrong for a 23 year old woman to be dating a 18 year old guy? If any women have been in this situation... your advice would be greatly appreciated! :)

OMG.. The samthing has happened to me! I'm 22 and he's 17. Even though I would never let it get anywhere I just think it's crazy how I can get myself to crushing a younger guy. He liked me and I knew it but I never payed it any attention because he's so young. I do look like I'm about 14, 15 years old so I do understand why. Anyways, recently a mutual friend of our's died and we were all at the memorial and he was talking to my cousin. He was talking about how he just really liked me to her and how he would never cheat on me and how he would go through hell for me. Even though he is young I thought it was cute.. So after that I just started noticing little things that made me start to have a little crush.. I'm so disgusted in myself cause it seems weird to like someone that young even though he looks grown... BUT JUST TO LET You KNOW... TRUST ME You R NOT THE ONLY ONE GOING THROUGH THIS. Just make sure you dnt let it get anywhere until after he's over the age limit. You really don't want to get yourself into any trouble. SORRY FOR RAMBLING BUT ITS A RELIEF TO SEE IM NOT THE ONLY ONE GOING THROUGH SOMETHING LIKE THIS..

But when he does pass 18 is it still wrong to date him beacsue of the age gap??

as long as he's 18 I think its fine, think about demi moore and aston kutcher

If you really like him then go for it, or you might look back at it in the future and regret it. Its hard to find someone where the feeling is mutual if its happening go for it the age difference is only an issue if you make it it would probably just be a fling, short term...
