Comment on What age gap is too big of an age gap if someone's in their early 30's?

  I’ve known a guy, dated an 18yo while being ~33-35…

  We sat down and talked about the relationship.

  Me: dude, it’s fine if you tell me it’s all about sex, just please tell me what do you really get out of that relationship?

  Dude: no you don’t get it, she’s so mature for her age, we have common things, we talk a lot

  Me: what do you talk about? do you talk about her homework?

  Dude: noo, we talk about life and such

  Couple weeks later dude is single. At least then he admitted it was just about the sex.

  The gap was wider than 22 and 30, but still, it’s too much.

    18 is definetly too low, they still look like children to me I agree, but 22-23? If they work they arent behind me in their life. But yeah the gap is wide.
