writes: Hi everybody...ok to get to the point. There is this one guy I know who is very sweet and caring. I am 19 and he is 25, which isnt a problem at all except for one thing. He looks like hes 35(he dresses older, he is losing his hair already, etc..)but I dont mind it at all. We aren't officially going out or anything but its likely it will become that. My worry is that when we go out (he has asked me out)we get odd looks from people. Also, my parents. If I were to bring him home one day, I know they wouldnt believe me that he is actually 25, not older. Anyway, do you think I should get into a relationship that I know will face these kind of "problems"? Reply to this Question Share |

Hey if you like him date him, have the happiness you deserve and as for people satring and gossiping then I would just say cross those hurdles when you get to them. It might not even happen, yet you're worrying about it now! Worry about them when it happens, you might fall so head over hills in love that you'll find you realy don't care.

Who cares what other people think ? If you are happy then let no one else pass judgement. You make your own happiness in life and if you want this to happen let it, no one else can make your happiness, and if small minded people want to look and make fun let them, they obvioulsy dont have much else in their lives!! You get one shot at life... get out there and make it a good one!!
Take care
xx

Why should you worry about what other people think? They are not dating him and if your parents got to know him i'm sure they'd be fine with it. If they didn't like him, it would be for other reasons. I wouldn't worry about this. There's a lot of other things to worry about.. this is small peas.. Don't fret it. I say have fun with it.. when people give you funny looks.. kiss him passionately and then say loud enough for them to hear... "Thanks dad.. lets go pick up mom now."
But i normally just joke around and ask if they'd like to card me.. though I have the opposite problem.. I look younger than what I do. but I wouldnt worry about it.. this isn't really a problem.. just some people are just closed-minded and assume too much.

If you really like this guy age should not matter, my bf and i have the same problem his 25 and i'm 20 but i look about 16 so he gets alot of dirty looks from some narrow minded people, don't worry after time this sorta thing does'nt become a problem as much, i think you should go for it and not worry about what others say, as long as your happy that should be all that matters.
