idk. to be fair i am a very inexperienced and immature 18 year old (in high school) and he is a very sexually experienced 25 year old with an assertive personality who is a lot stronger than me. maybe i am being zoomerbrained though
im spineless and lack any knowledge or experience but he seems quite good and i feel like im falling more and more behind everyone. the age thing definitely does make me uncomfortable but the longer i wait the scarier it will become ;-; so
do i just sit around and wait ?
my view is they’re likely in pretty meaningfully different spots in life and development. under the “standard” life path, a 25 year old is likely a few years out of college if not pursuing advanced degrees while an 18 year old might not even be in college yet. also the classic “half your age +7” rule just misses out on this being not creepy, you gotta wait another 3 years for a 7 year age gap to fit that rule
depends on you tbqh
your first relationship vs 10+ yrs into dating & casual hookups are pretty different mentalities and come with different expectations.
if you're going through your 'this is true love muh soulmate bff' phase you are gonna get your shit rocked hard because that simply isn't how adults date
It can work, but it's hard since you're at very different stages in life. 18 should be enjoying their youth while they can, and 25 should be a responsible adult working on their carreer and future.
I dated a 20 yr old when i was 27 for a few months and broke up with her precisely because i felt i was robbing her of her youth.
If you love them let them go kind of a deal.
Ngl, the generational gap was noticeable too. It was hard to have interesting conversations. Whatever topics she found deep and interesting were kinda trivial to me, and what i found deep and interesting was profoundly boring to her.
it's literally fine
when I was 16 I dated a 24 year old
and I'm 29 now dating a 57 year old
fuck whoever you want, you're an adult and your own person
fuck I hate zoomers
I think a 7 year gap gets less weird as both people get older but let me ask you this: what would an 18 year old and a 25 year old even have in common? If you're both terminally online neets I can see that working because you're both developmentally stunted but a "normal" 18 year old and a "normal" 25 year old would have almost nothing in common with each other
I'm 25 now and I absolutely would not date 18 year old me or any other 18 year old tbh
why are zoomers like this

If doesn't work take is as an experience stop being zoomer Twitter brained.
Depends, are you the 18 or the 25. the 25 gets thrown under the bus when your relationship inevitably goes wrong
close twitter, close tumblr, close reddit, close tiktok and start living normally
no ^_^
real life is scary and unfulfilling!
yes, especially if you need someone to tell you it's too big of an age gap

Sounds pseudoscientific and made up
lurk moar nigga
Do you have a non-made up and scientifically deduced acceptable age gap?
Any age gap is acceptable
Ok, show me the science
It's extremely concerning especially given who you both are. disengage and date a nice boy who isn't an internet person.
It doesn't seem psuedo scientific all you dumb cunt. It's not pretending to be science at all.
when i was 18 i had seggs with a man who was nearly 30 and it was hot
what the fuck is “seggs”, are you even 18 right now?

My rule of thumb is that 3 years is acceptable up until you're in your late 20s.
At your age I think 7 years is a bit much, you're still kinda a kid and he's a full grown man. So be careful.
>become a tranny despite society's opinions
>gives a shit about what society thinks about your love
No, in fact 7-14 years age difference is ideal
T. 20 y/o trying to get with someone in their late 20s
it's pretty weird on the part of the 25yo
For what? Sex? Dating? Marriage?
Is he good to you?
sotce this will-they-won’t-they you have with snake is endearing but make a decision at this point. 7yrs isn’t really weird
it certainly raises few eyebrows but not something illegal or purely creepy.
If you're asking LULZ for permission to be in a relationship, yes.
It can work, but it's hard since you're at very different stages in life. 18 should be enjoying their youth while they can, and 25 should be a responsible adult working on their carreer and future.

For fucking? No
For a relationship? Yes those gaps only work post 24
(25/2)+7=19.5
It’s a lil weird for sure
I'm 42 and my trans gf is 23, we have been together two years
You’re young, try it and find out. It’s not like he’s 40. No harm in a couple dates / some fun.
it's literally fine

You where a minor that bad but if you're an adult no one should give a fuck
>You where a minor
the world is not California, anon
age of consent in my country is 16, it's fine
cope and seethe ig?
they live in different countries. E dating is a waste of time.
It’s a 10 hour drive bro I’ve done that before
no it's fine as long as you're compatible and treat each other well
t. 21yo dating 32yo
yeah hes a pedophile
