writes:hey..i'm just wondering what your thoughts are about a 16 year old girl dating a 19 year old boy? He's turning 20 in december..? Personally i thought it was fine because he's gentle, fun-loving, kind and doesn't expect too much. I have fun with him, we joke and so on. We're not offically together but just seeing each other and we also wk together. A girl from wk made me aware of the age gap who, in the beginning wanted us two to get together, and now that we are she's telling me that maybe the age is quite a difference?! i suspect that she is a bit jealous, but besides that...what are your thoughts?thanks!

This is quite the norm in the UK. No self respecting girl would date a boy their own age, at least thats what my 13 and 16 year daughter says. The 19 year olds can afford to take you out as well!
On average, I think I'd say I'd trust the 19 year old more with my kids as well.
Go for it.
A Dad, (if thats' a recommendation)?

Unfortunately, it is very likely that he has his mind on only sex, which is a negetive thing in lots of ways. You will most probably be wanting a more committed relationship involving emotions, which he may not be interested in. On top this, you may want to look out for the age of consent where you are, as you do not want to break the law with him, an event like that could take a large toll on your life.
The other question is, are you ready to be jumping in to a relationship with a guy who may want something to last a lot longer than you are used to. You need to question exactly how much you are willing to put into your relationship. If you are willing to virtually hand your life over to this man at the age of 16 then go for it, otherwise, it would be wise to hold back.
Good Luck!
