Talking to this 18 year old guy (I’m 23) and my friends are calling me a pedo for it and they think it’s a joke but I don’t find it funny

You’re not a pedo but at 22 I find nothing intriguing about 18 year olds…

lowkey i would raise an eyebrow at that age diff… obviously not illegal but like he’s fresh out of high school

18 year olds, especially boys, are very very very dumb

Not judging you, but at 22 I would never date under 20.. your friends are concerned and that’s valid

This is definitely weird, legal but not really right because you two are at different stages in life. You arguably have more in common with a 28 year old than 18 year old.

ESPECIALLY not 18 year old boys considering that women mentally mature faster

Ppl say this but he deadass has more experience than me (has dated, has a drivers license, lives alone). Idk we met at work and I like him ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. I feel like it’s only weird if you are weird about it

Calling me a pedo is way too much though imo

16 year olds have drivers licenses and have dated. you’re consenting adults so who am i to tell you what to do but if the genders were swapped i feel like ppl would be calling him a creep

right but the reasons you gave that you thought it was fine to date him despite him being fresh out of high school were things that apply to 16 year olds also

Yea that may be too much, but like it only kinda strikes a nerve bc it’s like not true but like seems in the ballpark.. how did you meet him

Okay but why you gotta pick the 18 yr old “with experience”? You gonna wait 4 yrs for him to work? Or is he not getting a degree? Idk how u expect this to go down but he’s not gonna wanna settle anytime soon. Seems like you just picking anyone who gives you attention

Life experience isn't just dating or driving, emotional maturity and power balance matter, especially when one person is barely an adult

At 22, this. I lived long enough waiting to be allowed into 21+ spaces, I’m not waiting again for someone else unless it’s just a friend
