Personally it's ok with me. When i was 18 i was dating a 34 year old guy. Everyone had something to say about when truthfully they were jealous. He would buy me anything i wanted when i wanted and where i wanted it at. After a while the gifts was nothing to me and what i cared about was him. There is nothing wrong with finding your soul mate whether its a man, woman, older, younger, white, black, chinese or what have you.....follow your heart because your heart dont lie.

You know what, hon. I am 23,and I once dated a guy that was 43. Do you see our age gap? He is 20 years older that me. Do you see you and the man's age gap? He is 18 years older than you. I think it is something wrong with him because why would he be preying on a young one like you. I know you may feel like you are an adult now, and you're able to make your own decisions now. You really need to be careful in a situation like this. Take it from me...He is probably been locked up before, has a mental issue, or something. I know because the guy who was that much older than me had those very same problems. I bet he is ready for you to settle down and move in with him,ha? Yes, i know. Run in the other direction because if not he will try to destroy your young life. His experience in life is triple yours. He knows way too much for you. He'll have you going around in circles. Think about this...have you ever had a controlling friend or boyfriend? This is exactly what he will be.

personally i dont approve of it but you cant help who you fall in love with. Just make sre its love and serious and that neither of you are using the other. You may be legal but not necessarily mature enough to handle that relationship. My friend however is 21 and her husband is 40 and they're fine with the age difference. They did however haveto deal with the acceptance of their relationship by both their parents, family, friends and mostly the public. Admit it, it is quer to see a couple holding hands or kissing when you'd have initially thought the relationship was of a father and daughter! Bottom line is its not wrong to be with someone that much older- its different, socially unaccepted but not unacceptable- you know what i mean? But dont let yourself get into this relationship so deeply and so strongly that you dont realise if he's being disadvantageous to you because of ur age ( as a pevious entry said- he may not trea you like an adult) - be very objective abut the relationship and accpt it if its going wrong and love it when its going greta. All relationships need work. I think you all can do whaever you want. Good luck.

Legally it's not wrong.
IT'S JUST FREAKING STUPID.
Do you know why a 36 year old man would want to be with an 18 year old girl????? Let me enlighten you:
1. Because he likes little girls and just doesn't want to go to jail. When you're over the hill (22) he may dump you for a younger one.
2. Because he is too emotionally or sexually or intellectually IMMATURE to deal with a relationship with a mature woman his own age.
3. Because he knows the younger you are, the easier you will be to control and/or brainwash and he WILL be in control. Maybe even abuse you.
Get the picture?????
Do yourself a favor and GET THE HELL AWAY FROM HIM!!!!!

No, isn't wrong, a man of 36 knows how to rock your world better than a inexperienced guy of 19 or 20 who are thinking just in their selves. A man of 36 is more focus in what you may need.

I would say to each their own but as a parent I would say are you out of your mind for going out with someone twice your Age. and the reason I would say that is because one you either already or are graduating high school, you have no job, you still live at home, and what do you see in them besides a parent figure? but also in some states it would be against the law too. I'm sorry but this is how I would feel if you were my child.

Ashley I do not know you so cannot say whether it is right or wrong for you to be in this relationship. My advice for you would be to be careful however as your age is so much more tender then his. Also your interest's will eventually show the age difference between you both. Different likes and dislikes will certainly appear after the honeymoon stage has subsided and it will prove to be a difficult relationship to continue eventually.

well its depends on you, && what your taste for guys is. If you like mid 30's guys that are supposed to be married by now. thats your choice. If i were you i wouldnt be with a 36 year old man. He can get disgusting in bed since he is old and would want it from you. I would keep it to a minium of 2 years older than you. but its your choice and who you like and who you are happy with and who statisfies you.

Not really, but the guy needs some extra, extra, scrutiny. It is unusual for a 36 year old guy to actually be good to a woman so much younger than he is. Hold him to a high standard, and make sure he treats you well.

Well, technically no. But he IS old enough to be your father. Doesn't that strike you as being just a little bit odd?
