I liked him and he liked me back, but before we got together - I told him about the "age" thing and he talked it out with me.
He said it doesn't matter as long as we're in the same year level.
Which was okay, no one knew he was younger than me anyway cos I was much shorter than he was. Lol
So now I honestly don't care about the age thing, as long as you love each other.
I think that age becomes less an issue as you get older (aka out of college old).
For example, a 14 years old and an 18 year old seems like a huge age differance and society views it as morally wrong.
However, if it was a 24 years old and a 28 years old, then it seems perfectly normal.
They are both fours years difference, but the two people are just older.
That's also how I think too.

when i was 16, i dated someone who was 5 years older and although it felt as it was "love," it wasn't. it was just mere infatuation, not to mention that my innocent heart, mind and soul were manipulated and corrupted by him lol ^^ T__T
in a nutshell, if you're 21+, age really shouldn't be an issue since relationships at that age will be based more on you and your partner's maturity level---how well you guys understand each other, what views/beliefs you guys have, what values you look for in each other, etc.
anyone under 21 should date within his/her age: give or take 2 years.

If someone is like 18 and the other is like 25 I think there is nothing wrong with that. Just an example. ;DD

I don't want a woman who would get gray hair before me! ...Though, sometimes I can't help but make exceptions.

How do you feel about a 14 year old and a 25 year old? I was stupid...I'm not going to let that happen again (you know, if I could). I'm almost 16, and in Australia thats the legal age, so I won't have those problems so much? Although, I won't go out with a guy in 20s right now. I like a guy who is 16 right now.

Though being with a younger guy [1yr5mnths younger] who treats you younger doesn't.
It's about the maturity level. When the younger guy screams on about Twilight. Nup.

.. just updating.
Ummm.. so yeah my mum found out AGAIN
(cause there were previous times were she told him to stop talking to me blah blah)
and she spoke to him for like an hour.
She approves of him being a friend, but thats all.
So we're actually waiting for eachother... well more him waiting for me.
Its funny cause i just got off the phone to him (its his birthday) and he said hes scared of losing me..
but i feel the same way.
To all the people that told me to be careful and that said he might be using me.. well he wasnt/isnt.
If he was i dont think hed be so upset about us not being together now.
Apart from that everythings pretty still good with us.
I just miss him alot.

because of how the school splits you in years/grades/whatever.
they exaggerate/emphasize the age gap, so ppl find it a big deal
bt as you get older, its less pressured on, so its nt found as much more of an issue. x)
Keep in line with the fashionists x]

But I believe there are enough exceptions that it has to be looked on an individual basis.
And a couple of years don't matter in high school, and years become irrelevant as you grow older.
So age may be a harbinger, but it isn't the only thing that matters.
