  • I’ll also note that I had skipped college and had been working, and was about to go back to school. She was about to start her second year in college.

    There are multiple ways people can find themselves on the same path and there was some serendipity for sure.

    To the point of many other people here, yes, over the next five years she is going to evolve more than you as a person. So just understand going that growing apart is more likely than if you were both in your 30’s.

    Nothing wrong with that, just a reality to acknowledge.

    I’m turning 31 this year, and my girlfriend is 25.

    We’ve been together six years now. I didn’t realize she was still 18 until the end of our first date, and she caught that I was visibly startled by it.

    I owned up that I didnt realize and assumed from our interactions that she was at least 20-22 and she laughed and apologized, saying she thought I knew her age.

    After going home and thinking about how well we hit it off, and how she found my concern amusing, I decided I was being silly and that if the age gap was a problem it would make itself evident.

    Best decision ever. Nothing wrong with paying attention to those things, just keep open communication with each other 👍




  • Honestly one of the reasons I fell for a pyramid scheme coming out of high school.

    A friend invited me and I went to shit on it and get him out, but the main guy’s whole thing was “everything is a pyramid scheme, at least here you have the chance to build a pyramid beneath you.”

    Obviously there were other reasons as old as time, but the argument of “so what, your ‘regular job’ is already a pyramid scheme you can’t win” was pretty rattling to a teenager in 2011.
