Nothing "dangerous" happened after that.After that, she wanted to be completely honest and told me her age (6 years older than me, and has a child of that age).She's never been married, her ex left her pregnant, and she's been a single mother since then.We're both finishing our university this year (she started a lot later than I did).Currently, I'm in my early 20s and I feel like she could mean the world to me.I don't know if it'll be just temporary, and I wouldn't want to hurt her (or her child, 'cause as you know, children can't understand why someone they're attached to disappears from their life).Do you think it could work out if we both tried, or is it better for them to find someone more mature and closer to her age?Thank you for your time and hope to find the best possible advice, as I'm placing them on the first place and I'm looking for the best possible outcome.

I generally love kids, so I think it won't be a problem, but I'll let her decide when and how I'll se it,
and it probably won't be until she's completely ready and trusts me enough.
I've already started slowly, and have no intention to rush things, as I care a lot for her.

It could work. But first I don't think you should get to know her child until you both are dating for a while. You don't know if it will work out or not so your best not getting the child involved to soon.

I don't think the fact that she has a child is a big obstacle (unless you really dislike kids) her being 6 years older and having a bit more experience might and it might not.
I say GO SLOW - very slow. And PLEASE don't get involved with the kid. Date a good 6-9-12 months BEFORE the kid becomes part of the "dates" or time spent together. That way if it DOESN'T work out the KID isn't "losing" someone he/she have grown to care for. IF it does work out, you and she will be going strong BEFORE the kid is added.

I don't see why not.
If you both like each other and are on the same page regarding where you're both at in life then I'd say go for it.
