I'm 24 and I'd be skeptical of seeing a 19-year-old. The age isn't the issue so much as the maturity and experience that comes with the age. Nonetheless, I'd be skeptical and still go through with it! I'm 25 (soon to be 26) and there's a 19 yo girl that likes me. I know it pretty much won't work though because there's just too big a gap heh I'm not sure how the OP 26 y/o school teacher thinks it will work unless he's just after one thing... My advice would treat it as an experience. Try to have fun. It may not work out in the long run but at least you have learned that relationships like this probably won't work. But at least you will have fun or if you don't you'll have a funny horror dating story to tell. | ||

At least she's told me she's not planning on it :p I think you guys (some) are missing the point - she's not nervous because she wants to impress the guy and hook up with him, she's nervous because she doesn't want it to be awkward as hell. The guy might want more than a "date" but I think he's more just trying to get his friends to stop trying to get him to find a girl...though it does seem like a devious way of getting a girl to go out with you, haha. | ||

If you make it awkward, it'll be awkward, people ask, just tell them casually and any potential stigma or assumptions of why you met him on the internet will dissolve, especially if you're social enough. Have fun! Give me meat D:< | ||

I met my bf on the internet, I always think people are going to think it's weird when I tell them that (if they ask ) but I really don't think it's any different to meeting someone anywhere else... would it be better if it was 'hey I just met this random dood at a bar'? Let people know where you are and have fun :D | ||

Let people know where you are and have fun :D There's an old stigma to the idea of meeting people online. People think: "Oh, she met someone online because she couldn't get anyone here", but that's just narrow-minded thinking and not actually acknowledging the convenience and wonders of the internet: Meeting people you wouldn't normally meet in your everyday surroundings. Good for you :3 I hope it works out! | ||

Mostly nervous about it being awkward as hell lol. That's all I meant to ask about. Same suggestion as before - relax and don't try to force anything (conversation, I mean) | ||

Kind of funny, I was talking to arb about high post count users that people don't know... I used ILS as an example but then he and I laughed because we never really read the names of people who post with an SCV icon. Torte is no exception, I think he should stay this way. ps ilikeilikestarcraft | ||

I mean, I would go on a date with an 18-year-old (6 years younger than me), but I probably won't pursue a relationship unless she could treat my feelings with some degree of maturity. Granted, my dad married my mom one week before he turned 25 (she was 19) - then again, my parents aren't exactly 'normal' people, but who really is? It all comes down to the person. I won't refuse them a chance due to their age, but I may not be optimistic about it! | ||
