No. Why would it?

25 to 20 isn't bad!
20 to 15 would be, but that's because of the differences between you at that age - but by the time people reach their 20's they wont really change again until their 30's, so the difference between you is not so great.
A 30 year old with a 25 year old is not weird, but he;s a lucky chappy/gal. a 35 to a 30 year old isn't interesting or odd at all, and no longer from then on.
Go for it!

The fact you are asking the question indicates you have doubts. We all have a dating 'age' scale and if this does not fit in with yours you will always have a level of discomfort. So guess it is up to you to decide.
The general consensus is 'go for it'. Just make sure you are comfortable with it as you do not want to start something with this young man that will leave him hurt and bewildered.
Hint, what is there in the first 3 weeks of a relationship will usually be there when it breaks up.
Choose wisely as it appears you are making the decision for two.

Age does not matter as long as you're two people of age. If you both like each other and feel comfortable around each other you should try it. A lot of people date someone either older or younger than their age. I've done both! Love doesn't care whether your five years older. Life is short and what if you're passing up a great guy?

Hey, that's no age gap at all really! I know it's often a little more unusual for a woman to date a younger man (rather than the other way round) but there is absolutely nothing wrong with it! I myself am a few years older than my husband, but he is very mature for his age, so it works for us; sometimes I feel like he is the older one! Everybody matures at different rates, so if you feel like you're both at the same stage in life, then it really doesn't matter what age you are.
Good luck, hope it works out :)

It won't be wrong at all.
What you need to consider though is that whether you are thinking long term. If you are, it'll be a good idea to know what you are in for. If u guys love each other and are compatible and want to be together...age is the last thing that shud stop you from doing so.
All the best!

Girls are so weird.
Let's say through some freak accident I live to 80.
If I have the option to date a 20 year I am going to pounce on it.
You on the other hand are worried about 4 years?
Get over it.

To, answer your question the answer is No , it is fine. I say it's fine as long as they are not under the age of 18. Hell you could be 50 and it would still be fine. I have a question for you. Is there something wrong with you mentally?

Absolutely fine for you to date him. I am 8 years younger than my partner and we met when I was 21. There is no big deal with your age difference as long as you are happy together. Good luck.

Hell no - if your happy and he's happy why would it be wrong?? For one age is only a number and secondly its only 5 years anyway - it not like your nearly retired and hes just leaving school - go for it and enjoy your time together

Well, sweetie, if you are nearly 25 and the guy you met is 20, I do not see anything wrong with it.
God bless you if you look 19 and you are nearly 25!!!
