I have known this guy for years, since we were kids, however he is about 7 years older than me. I'm 22 and he's 29 and i'm wondering if thats too old? We recently saw each other in the pub and got chatting. We've never done that before usually its just a quick 'hi, how you doing?' in the street. This time we actually sat there and chatted, he made me laugh alot. But im not sure how i feel? Im always happy to see him, we work in the same field although not together so we have that in common. My issue is that he's not my usual type, infact he's the complete opposite, he's a primary school teacher!!! Im just worried that he's alittle old for me? Different points in each life and all?

dear the age is just a number, i can see that u are happy with him and make u feel comfortable and safe why u worry that much... live your life and don't care to the age, because the love is blind can't see the age and the person, just feel on it...
dear it's hard to find the man that u are with, be happy always with him because he give u anything u want and i see that he appreciate u more than anyone else... for me it's good age.
for example my parents the different between them is 7 years and they living 30 years together thank God ... they are happy...
good luck dear don't worry about that age he is not like your dad age or something he is just bigger than u and it's better for u.. not to be with kid he is silly ... Good luck

22 and 29 is not a big deal age wise. If you had said the age gap was 16 and 23 then I would have said nah, because even if with the age difference bewteen the same amount of years, I think anyone under 20 doesn't really know how they are and different maturity level but once reach that point, generally age isn't all that important (provided not 20 years or so). If you have things in common and enjoy each others company, then go for it. If it doesn't work out, what have you lost? It may just work out for you, never know unless you try.

at age 22 I dont think age matters anymore. 29 is not that far off. I dont know what you mean by usual type but why would it be so bad to try someone out of your type? Take a risk it might surprise you. No one said you have to marry him.

I don't think the age difference is a problem, but I think 22 is too young to get married. Take your time and get to know him and maybe you will find you enjoy his type more than you thought and he will become your type.
Someone with whom you can talk to and who makes you laugh is hard to beat! He sounds like he has great potential!

do no longer worry with Josh he feels like a genuine jerk that basically enjoys flirting with you. Now with Warren i'd pay attention, you do no longer choose to finally end up being his rebound. I truthfully sense like hes basically searching for somebody to help console him and he's conscious which you adult adult males are style of interior a similar difficulty the place your no longer happy on your relationships. yet what approximately your boyfriend? you assert he's distant? that's no longer solid, it feels like your searching for yet another guy and your too youthful to be tied up with somebody that's no longer ideal for you. My suggestion, do away with Jake forget approximately Josh or basically flirt for relaxing in college and basically be super pals with Warren for awhile until you comprehend he's fairly over his previous. wish I helped :)

I don't think he's too old for you. It sounds like both of you enjoy each other's company. Sounds promising!
