You’d be surprised on the number of college students who have no idea on how to adult(schedule an appointment) I hope that they get it figured out before they graduate. Cause the outside world is not as forgiving

While age wise it could be appropriate, maturity wise, it’s like a toddler and a teenager.

Just went through this he genuinely couldn’t fathom that I couldn’t come over one night cause I had to go to work early in the morning. He also was just childish and did immature stuff in my opinion.

reading this as an 18 year old who has messed w much older men—yea you’re right. i’m literally a legal teenager who still has a curfew and is just now stepping into adulthood.

Hard to pair it all with the same color. Each sit is different. I’ve met mature young adults and older adults that still somehow function as a teenager 🤷‍♂️

33

what we been saying 😭 it’s basically a senior in hs with a college grad, 4 years isn’t insane in the long run but the maturity difference is huge

Some people just genuinely don’t understand how to be an adult unfortunately

22

Bro she just became a adult u can’t expect that 😭😭

i was the 18 year old dating a 22 year old straight outta high school and now that i'm almost 21 looking back it was SO fucked up. i didn't understand a lot about being independent and he assumed I would just know it all

20

i was 19 in a situationship with a 25yo and he was by far the most manipulative person i have ever met. he guilt tripped me into feeling bad for him when he did things that hurt me and would make me stay on the phone with him all day but i wasn’t allowed to “distract him” so i would just sit there quietly not doing anything. i eventually unadded him on everything and he spammed requests for 3 days. just thinking about makes me feel sick

i’m 18 and know like nothing because my parents didn’t teach me anything. i had to call my boyfriend to ask if the water in my poi was boiling enough to put the pasta in. my parents dint even teach me how to cook. my boyfriend and i made a list of things to cook together over the summer so i can learn

As an 18yr old who’s about to graduate college, I also wouldn’t date an 18yr old. Then again, I’m just not participating in the dating scene.

14

As someone who was the 18 yo with a 22 yo I wouldn’t recommend it. Everyone is different and I am more mature and have had to be more mature to survive. What was so weird was how different our places in life were. He was graduating college and moving to another state for a job and i had just finished my first year. I loved him a lot and i never felt that he was going for me since i was younger but it did start to feel uncomfortable

Yep

I was 14 dating a 17 year old who was almost 18 (i turned 15 a few months after) but he didn’t even use shampoo. Like he used a bar of regular ass soap for EVERYTHING and he couldn’t make a box of mac and cheese for himself. He was in the grade above me and his brother was my age and told me they had shampoo. It was RIDICULOUS. Idek why i dated him atp

Weird it took you trying to realize that but

Reading these comments as a 19 yro dating a 21 yro 👀 (i pay taxes and know how to write an email)

Idk I’ve had some sus age gaps myself (I’m a girl and was younger) but the smallest age gap I had was 10 months and he was actually younger and it was my worst relationship he was genuinely a child and worse

i’m 18 (just finished first year of college) dating a 22 yr old who just graduated, it’s been fine so far
