    Nope. I'm with a guy 6 years older, and have dated up to 8 years older than me.
    Just the legal issues, parents, etc.

    Nope. Last night I finally grew the guts to dump his ass. He's four years older than me.

    I don't think it's weird. I dated a guy 2/3 years older than me (our birthdays were four months apart) when I was 14 and then again when when I was...16.

    No it's not weird....maybe you should talk to your parents and tell them you'll set up boundaries about what you can and WILL NOT do because they could charge him with statutory rape and the such. So don't try and sneak around because then your parents will assume you're having sex, and if you are...use a condom and birthcontrol...you're so young...

    My parents are divorced now, but they were married for 33 years. My mother is 52 and my father is 74. They have a 22 year gap between them, and although the marriage fell through eventually, they were very much in love. I don't think you have anything to worry about.

    No, it's not odd at all. My boyfriend is five years older than I am. I've always dated people older than me...the only thing I have a problem is, when they're older than my parents, that kind of bugs me.
    Age is just a number..just be wary of the legal issues and whatnot.

    Well, my parents are 8 years apart in age aha. I think 3 years isn't weird at the slightest bit.

    I've always wanted to date Josh Hutcherson, even though he's 7 years older than me lol.

    My fiance is two years younger than I am, so no. My only problem is if the person is old enough to be your mother/father.

    Three years is nothing. :3

    Not weird at all.
    I'm not going out with this person, but this guy I have a 'thing' with is almost 6 years older than me. I'm 16, he's almost 22. And the age gap hasn't really made a difference.

    I think the only thing to be wary of is legal issues, you know? :)

    No. Love is love. I went out with someone ten years older than me.

    Love knows no numbers.
