I’m 17 dating a 20 year old ? Is it really that bad

Question

Answer

When I was 17, I dated a 20 year old. At the time it seemed alright and we were together a few years. Looking back though, he was manipulative and wanted to date a young girl for a reason. But a 17-year-old is practically a legal adult and should be treated as such. Ultimately it's up to you

Answer

I mentioned this to another girl but I’ve had lots of friends date older guys and what I’ve noticed is that age isn’t the issue. Emotional maturity is. If your man starts treating you poorly or acting like he’s better than you intelligence wise or like he’s more experienced then get out of there cause it’s an ego thing. Just make sure you’re with him for the right reasons and then it should be fine.
