I don't understand why your so called "best friends" always have to think that you want them to "help" you in your relationships -.-.
I Hate it...they are telling me crap about how it is to be with a younger girl and all that stuff...

Am i really stupid or what? I don't really undersand the question?:confused:

Kill them... er...

Age gaps are BS. Period.

It's fine as long as legality isn't an issue. Of course it depends on the people involved, but as far as "is it proper?", well refer to my first sentence.

A couple of me mates are with girls two years younger than them. The only comments are just a but o' fun and games. And the whole "having a girlfriend is so gay" routine.

Yes, that was a piss take of when people say "<topic> is so gay".

It sure is in Oklahoma!

It really depends on how old you are. In middle school, a 3 year gap is bad news. In high school, it *might* work, and in college, go for it without a second thought.

I personally find that the "divide the age of the older person in half and add 7" rule seems to work pretty well for relationships, as far as maturity and intellectual development. And yes I know that the rule is usually a reference to sex, but from my experience it works for relationships.

So an 80 year old can marry a 47?!?!?

I personally feel that JR High should be the same grade (age doesn't count here), High school is within 3 grades (Freshman can date up through JR, Sophmores and Juniors can date anyone, Seniors can date down to Sophmores), twenties+ should be max 5 year distance.

I think that marrages with over 10 year distance are just weird. (no offense to anyone here with a weird marrage :p)

I suppose it would depend on the people involved. Are we referring to teenagers or adults? If I were a parent, and a guy who was 3 years older was dating my teenage daughter, I'd probably have a new body to add to my collection, under the floorboards.

If the youngest one is 18 or over, 3 years is absolutely nothing.

Just my opinion, but it really depends on the ages.

13 - 16 -- Probably not good.
15 - 18 -- Could probably work, A lot of people in my high school date within that range.
16 - 19 -- See above.
I would think anything over 18 is pretty much alright (within reason, nothing like 20 - 90 or anything)

Again, this is just my opinion on the matter.

You guys are foolish.

Look at History:

Roman generals, in perticular, the House of Julii family, married when they were 20, to 14 year old girls.

Marry with a 3+ age different, and become the conquerer of America!

[EDIT:] Err...yeah, age is just a number.

It's true. George W. Bush fell in love with a 12 year old bottle of scotch, now look where he is!

Then show up one day with an older girl. Find yourself a nice looking 35 year old woman and say "Hey this is my new GF."

But don't be serious about it.

meh, it is ok as long as no law is being broken.

If your friends can't understand that you like each other, then are they really worth having as friends?
