I'd rather you didn't. The two of you are at very different stages of life. She has (I assume) just finished high school and is beginning her adult life. She will either study or work somewhere and needs to have a little fun in her life. You have already gone through that transition stage from teenager to adult and should be looking at finding a life partner. If you haven't both already fallen head over heels in love, give this one a miss.

I think if the two of you have a lot in common and are able to communicate really well, then age should not be a factor. However, being that you find that the age difference is "odd" then I would not suggest going forward with it. I am 33 and dating an 18 year old. We are very happy, we can and do talk about absolutely everything. We both give 100% to our relationship and we frequently discuss what we both want. For us right now, we both want the same things as well as don't want certain things. The fact that we are on the same wave length and are so open with one another is what I believe really makes us work. We see age as just a number, however you look at it differently. I would imagine if you look at it as being "odd" now, then chances are, that you will only find it to be more "odd" as time goes on. Good luck with whatever you decide.

Why r u thinking about dating a girl who is 10 years younger to u. U r saying that u r feeling odd and still u want to continue what doesnot seems to be a good match. U can get a better date who is a bit older then the previous one and even matured. Sometimes a relation gets totally meshed up in this kind of situatio where there is such a age gap. Well its ok that love doesnot looks at age but still one should be really concerned with some issues which can create problems later.

Yes you can! It doesn't seem odd to me at all. If you think that things between you two can work out, then why not give it a try?!
My ex bf was 10 years older than me. I was 17 in the beginning of our relationship, which lasted 6 years. Age has nothing to do when you are REALLY in love with smb.
But bear in mind that it always depends on the type of person you are and she is. If you think that she is mature and that you two fit together, then there is no problem with that.
Give it a try!There is nothing wrong with that!
The best of luck!

It's legal, but a little odd. There is such a difference btw 28 and 18 in terms of life experience.

Well that really depends on both of your maturity levels and what both of you expect to get out of the relationship. Popular culture defines acceptable age differences to be half the man's age plus seven. However, this measure is a little off since the age difference gets higher with age. It really is dependent on the people in the relationship. Do not let popular culture be the single deciding factor in your decision.

Somebody say that love has no age. But definitely it is odd. Her feelings are different with you. How can u do it. Leave her to complete her studies. She is youngster and u r a matured person. I think it is not little but quite different.

my b/f of one year is 38 i am 21, there is something odd maybe when people look at us, or when you come out and say our ages, or if i meet his parents.........but other than that, there is nothing odd between the two of us. if you will make each other happy then go for it!

Sure you can. You are both legal adults. Besides age, ask yourself if you have common interests and if you are attracted to each other & enjoy each other's company. If you do, age does not matter. Compatibility does.
Good Luck :)
