i'm not professing to be perfect, nor am i saying it's wrong, i'm not pointing fingers...because i knew there was huge contraversy between travis and my age difference. i was 16 he was 24,...i simply agreed with her when she said there is a big difference between 15 and 20 as opposed to 50 and 55. because their is a big difference, a five year difference wouldn't be an issue if "both" were legally able to have sex.
That's the problem right there, people thinking about sex way too much. This is a unique young woman who I enjoy talking with and, similar to me, does not involve herself with the dramas like those of her peers (many who fuck around on each other to an almost a physically sickening level). And OH the difference, in the 15-20 versus 50-55. A LOT can happen in 35 years; you'd hardly be the same person. I know you aren't condemning this, it's just that it probably doesn't mesh well with people's social tastes. And besides, you of all people should know that sex is not something I focus on. So I don't see the "difference" between starting to date someone at the 20-15 juncture from the 20-25 juncture when you're in it for long term, and even in that "long-term" future pushes sex off the list of important things to do or try.
first of all...i wasn't accusing you of wanting to have sex with this girl. secondly, when i brought up the topic of sex it was pertaining to my own experience with an older man and it was simply an opinion that i was sharing with someone else and NOT you. if i offended you in any way, i apologize because that wasn't my intention.
I'm sorry, but I have to apologize as well. I was defending my perspective in an offensive play. I'm just upset that society is further accepting of age gaps where both parties are over 18. I feel it is wrong to tell certain couples that it is not right for them to have a serious relationship because one is under legal adulthood and /or there's an age gap of several, or even just a few years.
Oh shut up, I'm not some sexhound after a young hot thing, even though she is rather good looking. Besides I'd estimate our maturity levels are about the same.
You do have a good point there. But some people do not have loads of experience between 15 and 20, and while people still learn and change, quite often this is a process of getting comfortable in your own skin. High school is a place where most people do not fully let themselves out, if you have any idea what I mean by that.
I understand what you mean by that. But how can you let yourself grow and change and become a 20-something year old if you are hanging around with high schoolers worried about math quizzes and curfews?
I'm just sayin.
