would it be fine to have a boyfriend younger than you?

Question

But I have not yet giving him a answer for meeting up. Please help, i just need some frank advises.

Answer 1

I'm not sure you can trust this guy, I mean, it IS the internet. For all you know it could be a 40 year old virgin or some perverted 10 year old. But if you have proof that he's really who he says he is, then I say you should meet up some time, and you know, actually get to know each other in real life, other than over a series of wires and computers. It doesn't matter if he's younger than you! Age doesn't really matter unless it get's extreme like 10 years older than you or 10 years younger than you O.o

I say try to meet up, see how it works out and then go from there. You'll never know until you try.

Good Luck! ^_^

Answer 2

Frankly are you out of your mind? You've talk for what 6 months on instant messenger and you've never seen him but you want him as your BF? I think you better Waite for that and when and if you meet him in person. this is what you do. Set a place and a time to meet. Tell him to wear a certain color shirt and pants, so that you'll know it's him when you see him and you won't make a fool out of yourselves going up to the wrong person. 2nd. Take a friend, just in case. Keep them close. Tell him what you'll be wearing then wear something else so you can get the first look at him. If you think you want to meet him still keep your friend close by. If he turns out to be something other then what you expect your friend can come to your aid and help get you out of the whole thing. ALWAYS HAVE A BACK DOOR TO GO OUT!

Answer 5

That depends on your style you like in men. Women mature faster than man to begin with. and many younger men aren't up there yet. also some lack alot of expereince in the bedroom if that doesn't bother you and you want to be the teacher then go for it.

Answer 6

Answer 7

My wife is 10 years my senior and your question is the only thing that has made me think about it in about 6 months. Age means nothing.

Answer 8

it's fine. age doesnt matter at all. my wife is eight years older then me.

i would not recommend you dating this guy though. he seems very...needy or grabby. if he hasnt met you how can he love you.

he might be a nerd and he might have been telling his nerd friends about you and how hot you are and so now he's trying to... lock you down. i think you should meet him but my bet is that he isnt hot at all. i can almost guarantee it!

Answer 9

You don't mention your age in this post but in general, YES - it's definitely fine to have a boyfriend younger than you.

Answer 10

it can work, but, if you're only talking on instant messenger then you might want to reconsider.
