I am 20. I'm considering dating a guy that is 31... Does age really matter? I know people say it doesn't, but 11 years? Anybody had actual experience?

An older guy can be more protective of you. And his needs and expectations may be more than you can handle. Check it out. It's the only way to know. Take it slow. Don't do anything you are not willing and prepared to do.

It depends. If you find yourself being mature for your age then it might not matter. If you are careful with your money and know how to live responsibly I dont think you'll have a problem with a 31 year old.

My father was 12 years older then my mother and he died 44 years before my mother. A relative married a women 12 years older. In my parents case age didn't matter. In the other relatives case, well, he's an idiot.

You are legal so no age does not matter. What matters is your ability to mentally and emotionally handle a relationship with someone who has more life experience, education, and possibly culture than you do.

No. Age doesn't matter as long as it has the capacity to stand erect in times of need.

My partner and I are 25 yrs apart. And it is going great. It is because we do have a lot in common. We openly discuss any thing. It can work, may take extra work. Good Luck!!
