I know lots of times it's frowned upon for a woman to date a guy younger than her because of maturity reasons. What if she just wants to have fun? If I'm 21, is it ok for me to go on a date with an 18-year-old guy?

don't worry, the frowning doesn't apply to this age difference!

I'm 20 and I'll be 21 in August. I personally feel that age is nothing but a number. And as long as that guy is at the same level of maturity as me, everything should be fine. Also sometimes I think about the guys that are 20 years old who date 16 year old girls and that is something that shouldn't be tolerated. It really just comes back to the maturity thing. If your looking for something long term, try sticking to guys your age and older that are ready to settle down. Good luck!

Yes, there isn't any difference between that and a guy who is 21 dating an 18 year old girl...though you may want to just keep it fun...18 for a guy is party time (not for all but for most) so he probably will not be capable of having a serious relationship.

My wife is 5 years older than me. When she was entering college I was a freshman in highschool. We weren't dating back then but this is an example of age difference. As we get older it seems to matter less that what it did back then. From 18 to 21 is a minor difference now but would have been a problem if you both were a little younger.

Well for one thing, you can't take him to a bar!!! If you are only 21 you should atleast date someone 21 and if you were say 30 you should atleast date someone who was atleast 21. An age difference isn't a big thing, but you should be able to do the same things in life...

I don't see what the problem is. I mean men have been dating younger women since the beginning of time. I don't understand why women should be made to feel like a "cradle robber" or a "dirty ol' lady". I say have your fun. A younger is probably better in bed. Go for it girl!

I went out with guys who were 7 and 8 years younger than me, and believe it IS a lot of fun! Go for it! You only live once.

Honestly it shouldnt matter what other people think. Its what you want not others. Just because others might not like it shouldnt stop you. My boyfriends friend is 17 and is goin out with a 21 year old girl. They have been dating for 4 years now. I told him I didnt like it but it didnt stop him. And I didnt want it to. But if its what you want I dont see anything wrong with it.

I do not think that there is a problem with you dating or even having an 18 year old for a boody call. But remember this, he is going to tell everyone what you two do.

He is so young for a date. If he is 25 and you are 28, he is matured enough to know if he really likes you.

well I think that you dont have to date someone to have fun, just keep it friendly. But if you want a boyfriend realize the headaches of dating someone younger ahead of time
