A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I meet this really nice guy on the train last weekend and we started talking and we ended up leaving with each others numbers. since then he been texting and foning me every day and always answers straight away even in lectures lol we get on really well and are wanting to go out only thing am worried about is the age gap am 16 he 21 but this was the same as my last relationship and my family made it clear they didnt like it but that was also long distance which added to it but am just worried how am going to tell them cause i really dont want to screw things up with them or him.

I was planning on trying not to tell my mum about his age and if she asks say i dont now but that he in uni so she has a rough idea of his age then once been out we'll go back to my place so she can meet him before i tell her. Do u think this the best way to approach things?

The older you get the less important age is. I am 23 my ex husband is 31 and the current man in my life is 32. Being 16 it is a little more difficult. From another womans point of view I say no age doesn't matter. But you have to remember your family are the people who are going to be there for you and no matter what happens they will love you and pick up the pieces when it is necessary. Try talking to them and maybe if they meet him on their terms they will feel more comfortable about it. Try to make an agreement or some kind of arrangement with your family where you get to see him and they don't worry to much. Good Luck being 16 is hard no matter what anyone says.
