 Hi, You are not the first couple and would certainly not be the last couple to have an age gap between them.I am 19 and my bf is 30! We really love each other and don't see our age difference as being a problem.It is what you think it is. i think age is nothing but a number!Good luck, mail me if you wana talk

It didn't really bother me...but I know lots of people we both knew disapproved...and my parents weren't happy with it,
All I would say - is make sure you trust him, and that you aren't just attracted to him because he's older than you. I always seem to do that. lol.
But just think..when ur 77 and 87....not that big an age gap aye?
Hope it works out for you. have a look at my question if you have a chance. x

Seriously, if the guy is 27 and he has anything in common with a 17 year old then something is seriously wrong with him and he is not dateable material to begin with.

 I agree with flower girl. As Mark Twain said, "Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter!"
Actually, on its face, age doesn't matter as long as you're both consenting adults. Age does sometimes come into play and complicated matters, though. For instance, someone who is 30 may be at a different point in their lives than someone who is 18. Someone who is 30 may be interested in settling down, buying a house and having kids in the next few years. Someone who is 18 may feel they have all the time in the world for that stuff, so they aren't interested in that stuff.
People with that big of an age difference can be in very different places in their lives. But if they both see eye-to-eye as far as life goals (long-term or short-term) then is could be a fun time had by all!

 It's only a problem if you or him see it as a problem, you are both adults so you can do what you want.
Take care.xx.

 Don't worry what other pople think of you. If you love this guy and he loves you then carry on, but there will be pressures on your relationship, either from friends or family.Ask yourself why you two decided to get together? Most girls go for older guys because guys mature much later than girs.So in answer to your question, no this isn't wrong, you are both old enough to know what you want.Good luck :-)
