Is it normal: 21 year old woman and 28 year old man?

I am extremely attracted to him. While we go to the same gym, I am unsure of how much we have in common. I'm a wonder-er and don't know what I am doing with my life, while he seems to have things pretty much together.

I very much want to bed him, but am reluctant to even think about a relationship.

So, what do you say? 21yo and 28 yo, normal?

    I don't think it's normal for a 21 year old to use the expression 'bed him'.

    I'm 28 years older than my wife, we've been married more than 11 years and we're happy. If you're thinking about sex, I've had sex with women young enough to be my grand-daughters.

    I met my husband right around the time I turned 22 (maybe a month or so before that). He was 28 years old, and he was my mailman. We started dating about 6 months later, and we're still together and happy 37 years later! It does depend on the maturity level of the individuals involved, of course, but 7 years isn't necessarily that big of an age difference.

      Maybe its not that you cant stand little boys, maybe your just acting to old. Personally I like women my own age give or take.

    I banged a 29 year old when i was 19. Didn't really care if it was normal. Interestingly, I've never had sex with anybody younger than me or even my age. Is that normal?

    • I banged a 28 year old when I was 16. What's your point? Is this a competition?

    age wise, it's normal
    However if you just want to bed him, see if thats what he wants too. He may want more, at that age many guys want to have something steady

      Yeah, which is another reason why I want to be with a girl my own age.

    • Yeah. I'd love him too, if that was an option.

    Normal to me. One of my best male friends, ( I'm a gay male ), he is not my boyfriend, but we've known each other over 2 years now, have a great relationship as friends, and sometimes sexual partners. He is 40, I'm 21. He looks like he's only about 28-30 years old. I don't view his age, I just more so enjoy his company as a person. He is very easy to talk to. I've been told by many people, both men and women, that I'm much more mature than most guys, and girls my age. And that's what he's always liked about me. So yeah I think it's normal. I think it sometimes gets a little odd when you see an 18 year old with a almost 60 year old. But hey it's about the person on the inside. The soul is what counts.

    I was 18 when I was dating my ex, who was 31. We dated for about a year and a half before we broke up. That was over two years ago.

    I guess everyone thinks it is "normal", but if it was the other way around, there would be controversy.

    I am 19 and my girlfriend is 32. We've been together a year and I was afraid to be in a relationship with someone older than me at first but we really work together :)

    Go get him!

    I read a formula somewhere for guys over the age of 25 trying to determine the youngest they should date is half their age plus 7 years (note they have to be at least 25 for it to be viable, as the formula would have their lower end at an illegal value for a 21 year old). For the upper end it would be their age plus the difference between their age and the result of the previous calculation.

    For example, at 28 the equation would be (28/2)+7, which is 21 for the lower end and 28 + (28 - 21), or 35 for the upper end.

    So with that formula you're within his age range. Not sure if it applies to women, though, because on his end you're old enough for him but if you were to apply that standard to yourself he'd be too old for you by four years.

    Normal. The girl I'm hooking up with is 22 and I'm 29 soon to be 30 in a few weeks.. There are a lot larger age gaps going on than yours.

    The rule of thumb for age seems to be age/2 + 5. You're all good.

    It's only a rule of thumb anyways.

    When I was 34 I dated a 19yr old. She was more sorted and intelligent than all the other girls I had gone out with in their twenties.

    So why not? You feel a connection: do it. Age means nothing at all.

    Normal? Why not?
