How young is too young?

Don't panic I'm not a pedo.
I've just met this girl and we're getting on really well. I really like her and she seems to be really into me as well. My worry is that shes 9 years younger than me. I'm going to be 30 next year and she still gets ID'd going into bars.

Is this worth pursuing or is the age gap just too big to make things work?

I was 21 when I met my wife who was 28. That was 31 years ago.

Age gaps mean nothing! I am 24, my fiancé is 41. He can act like a big kid at times and sometimes I have to be the parent, especially when we have my step kids!

How strange that you start your Question with such a statement.

If you want to say - 'I'm not a pedo but I am 22 and my girlfriend is 13 ...' then of course that is exactly what you are!

But an age gap like this is no big deal, so don't get hung up on it - or allow other people to take it upon themsevles to be put out on your behalf.

I cant see the problem with the age, 9 years is not a lot

I was 30 when I met my darling in 1964 and she was 14 yrs younger, and next month we will hit 45yrs of a very happy marriage, so be happy, and always put her on top of the `Tree of Life,`and may your love blossom for many years ahead.
