We are both Catholic and don't believe in pre-marital sex. I dont drink or do drugs, and I am a really good student. I really like her and can see myself being happy with her for a long, long time. I dont look 20 because I matured very late. I still only have to shave once a week. She is very mature for her age and looks older than 16. I've only had one girlfriend and that was in 8th grade. I still have not had my first kiss. I think she is beautiful, and the sweetest person I've ever met. Also her parents and my parents know each other pretty good and get along great. I am just worried what others would think/say about me since it is a little bit of an age difference. What u guys think?

If you both love eachother, than anybody who critisizes that has a problem.

So many people like to critisize about age differences and young men being in love with young women that are 15-18, but the fact is that love is the most beautiful and important gift in life and if two people really love eachother nobody has the right to critisize the couple. Follow your heart, just avoid sex if she isn't at the age of consent.

 Hey there,
Absolutely. Absolutely you two should be together. You both sound like two people who have a lot in common and seem to really like each other. You sound like such a sweet guy, and she sounds like a doll. Your parents already get along... this sounds like the perfect set up for a great relationship.
I don't think the age difference is too big of a deal. 20-16 isn't that big... actually when she's 20 and you're 24, that sounds fine, doesn't it? That's the age difference between my boyfriend and I and we get along fabulously. Like peaches and cream.
Go for it, and enjoy the time you two have together!
Good luck, sweetness!

Age does not matter if tou are both over the age of 16, i dont think both your parents would mind if they get along, im sure her parents would love you to be with her than some random boy that could take advantage, if you understand what i mean. Dont let such a small worry get in the way because you might never meet someone that you like as much as her again and you may regret it so just go for it what have you got to lose eh :D

 Like posionkiss says age does not matter when it comes to a realationship. Age is imaterial, if you truly love someone, and the love is reciprocated age means nothing.
Besides you are only 20 she is 16, there is only four years here, and you have got to remember that girls mature alot faster than boys.
Best of luck to you both

 Age does not matter when it comes to a relationship at all, its feelings that count. And as you say you can see yourself being happy with her then why deny yourself that happinness just because of an age difference? You both say you look older than you are and are more mature, and thats a good thing if your worried about age because maturity will add up for it. I think since you and your familys know each other quite well then youve got a good chance of this working, but only if you ignore the comments of what people disagree on. If you really want this to work then talk to her about it and see what she thinks. You sound like a very nice young man and i wouldnt let something so small prevent you from getting something so big :)
