Anyone fancied a much younger fella?

LegacyUser

I really really like a fella i'm at uni with and I know he likes me. We kissed a few weeks back and talk a lot etc. Thing is I'm 26 and he's 19. I know it's going nowhere but I can't get him out of my head He's totally my type, everything about him and it's making me feel down. There's no getting away from him because he's in my group. Anyone been here before??

If you get on well together, then why not? Thats not that much of a difference, go out with him and be happy.

26 and 19 isnt much of a gap.
you are both in similar aspects of life.

The only issue thats comes up when there is an age gap is stages of life. Ie, a 21year old dating a 40 year old. One would want kids .. get married perhaps. Other wants to live before settling down.

26 and 19 - nothing wrong with it

i dont think theres anything wrong with it, sure its only seven years. Whats that in the grand scheme of things??? Just go for it!!!

My best friend was in exactly the same position a few years ago, same age difference. They got married last September and are ridiculously happy. If there's a real connection, it's always worth exploring.

Im 28 and without doubt older women have so much more to offer than younger women in every way:) go for it

Met a guy much younger than me and the way we connected was nothing like I have felt for years.

However, he was only 19 and I was ultra aware that he is at a much different life stage from me with much to experience and live through, despite the feeling I had that he would reciprocate the feelings I was experiencing.
Luckily, I havent seen him since as it is so hard to deny that attraction, nonetheless, I reckon if the fates decree it we may have a wild affair!
and leave it at that. let him live his life.

Split from hubby a year ago, snogged a 27 year old at Christmas, I'm 37.... When I found out his age I pegged it... But am a firm believer, if its meant to be.... Follow your instinct not your head..Life is too shart and were not here for a long time...just a good time.
Enjoy and best of luck...

That age gap is nothing Op. I had a 24 year old GF when I was 17. Only thing that split us up was she turned to be very materialistic and I was out of work at the time so we spent many a night watching dvd's and what not. She then got bored :rolleyes:

Amazed me how she had money to go out 3-4 times a week with friends but if she went out with me I had to dip my hand in my pocket, everytime.

Just make sure there's nothing stupid going to get in the way of a relationship and if you think it's worth it then trust me, those barriers are worth leaping over!

Yeah, I've been there, he wasn't quite as young as your lad, and I wasn't quite as young as you, but the age gap is actually bigger. We're together over two years now and living together for one.
