I'm getting a lot of grief for being interested in a guy who's 8 years younger than me (I'm 30, he's 22). I didn't know initially that he was that much younger, and was not "looking" to date a much younger guy. I've never dated someone younger before in fact. We both really like each other, but I'm wondering whether I should even pursue the relationship further because of the nasty comments. Mainly from women, which really disappoint me- why would women especially be so upset? Don't women think we have the right to date younger guys, just like men can date younger women? I'd understand it more if I was like 30 or 40 years older than this person, but there's not even a 10 year age difference! I'm trying to not let all this outside pressure/comments bother me, but what gives? :(
