Is it normal for a 26 year old man and an 18 year old girl to date?

76% Normal
13 Comments

Recently, I've started to develop feelings for a guy, 8 years older than me. I know it sounds weird, but I really like him. I'm not sure if he likes me back, it seems like it, but then he could just be flirting and nothing else, you know? I just wanted to know if it was strange for people like this to date. Though, my father is ten years older than my mother and they worked out fine. However, I still want to know if this would be seen as weird. Especially for him given that I'm so young

    When i was 19 i was shagging a 28 year old, then when i was 20/21 i was sort of with another 28 year old, then about a month ago and im 22 now i had sex with a 34 year old married milf of 2. Everytime it has always been them that has had a problem with the age difference and i have never thought nothing of it, age is only as big a deal as you make about it.

    I fell in love with a 26 year old man when I was 18. We've been together for two years. :) I say it's perfectly normal.

    As long as you're both consenting adults -it's no ones business.

    It is cool. People mature at different rates. Once you reach your majority years it is all good.

    An age gap like that shouldn't even be thought about! Not that age matters anyway.

    A relative of mine married her husband 40 years ago and he is 22 years older than her.

    To be honest, the gap gets smaller as you get older...strange but true. Would you even consider the age gap of a 51 yr old woman and a 59 yea old man?

      ...Honestly, I don't think you should compare 51 and 59 year old adults to a 18 and a 26 year old :/

    18*2-9= 27

    18/2+9= 18

    You can date men aged 18<27. You're normal. Who says you don't use math in real life!

      Anyone can DATE anyone, and if you're both old enough in your location, you can get married/have sex. No math needed.
