So, this guy and I have been talking for about just over a month now. But just as friends, although we talk religiously. Which has led me to sort of gain some feelings for him. The thing is, he’s 8 years younger than me, which I feel a little strange about. He’s really mature for his age and does very well for himself. Do people still get into relationships with such an age gap?

The age gap means nothing. Might feel odd or look strange but after 1 month you adjust.
I don’t think it’s a huge deal. I just got out of a relationship with a woman who was…maybe six years older than me. (I should know that–we dated for two years.) Anyway, the age wasn’t an issue and had nothing to do with our breakup. You’ll notice weird little like almost cultural differences or like a slightly different attitude, but it’s not any kind of problem. How old are you, if you don’t mind me asking. I’m 39, and I’m pretty sure my ex is 45.
depends on how old you both are.
17-25, ew.
32-40, that’s fine.
Do it
if you have to question it on Reddit then you know that he’s too young for you. If you were older with an age gap different story , but you’re talking about someone who brain not even fully developed. Your talking about a who lived as a legal adult for only 3 years – if in the us , not even legal to drink yet vs you who been a legal adult for 11 years. Like I tell men liking young women , leave the young adults to their own age group.
I’m a female in mid 30s and I prefer guys who are late 20s early 30s. I don’t know why.
