We get on really well together and her mum is fine with us seeing each other etc. The problem is i have had girlfriends before my own age and the relationships have been more mature but i sometimes forget that she is only 17 and still has live the years i have already lived like 17-21 but i dont want to always be staying in with her beacuse she is young and likes to go out with her friends. I guess what i'am trying to say that is there anyone out there who has a similar relationship to mines in regards to age difference and what have they done to overcome the whole "their girlfriend being young" etc. Any help will do. Thank you very much. Reply to this Question

me and my girlfriend started dating when i was 22 and she was 17 (we are 28 and 24 now) you are young as well as she is so the age difference shoudlnt really come into it as it is nothing major, when you spend time together just enjoy each other, when you are apart enjoy your friends and dont worry about what the other is getting upto.in time you grow closer and then you wont even realise the age difference, we dont anymore

 I'm 24 at have been with my girlfriend for a while, shes only just turned 18. so was 17 when we started dating.I think your main problem is that you are thinking of your girlfriend as being young... forget about the age gap etc... and just take it one day at a time. If she wants to go out with her mates dont stop her, afterall friends are important, and im sure you go out with yours? Just treasure the time you have together. Before my girlfriend turned 18 we would still go out drinking together to pubs, clubs etc, go to the cinima, out for meals etc. etc...Age shouldnt matter atall (accept maybe in the eyes of the law, so if your the 5-o reading this, my girlfriend didnt drink before 18 and what I said above was all fictional, lol)
