    Ok im 19 and just started college. recently on facebook my first kiss added me. i havent spoken to her in years and i think things might get serious. problem is she is 17. she is exactly 1 year and 11 months younger than me.im just wondering socially would it be wrong to get with her? and would most people view me as a weirdo?

    It seems like a perfectly acceptable age gap, but the only thing that might make things difficult is that with her in school and you in college you will be at a different place socially. Most students have a greater degree of freedom and like to go out during the week and she will not be able to do this if she has to be up for school in the morning and will probably be trying to knuckle down for her leaving cert. I just know that from my experience at that age, it was very difficult to keep the relationship going when one party was going off and meeting lots of new people and getting involved in student societies and activities. But if you like her give it a try.

    When I was 17 I went out with a 19 year old. The age gap is not a factor when it's less than 2 years. What broke us up was that he was in college and I was in 6th year, so he had loads of new-found freedoms and spare time, while I was doing 30 hours a week of school and more after of homework/study.

    If you like her, go for it, but just be aware that the college/school divide means you'll need to juggle things around a bit. It's really not a big deal though.
