Dating a 30 year old man. I am 19

Nousername123

Hello everyone!
I’ve been dating my boyfriend for a while now, he is absolutely amazing. I’ve been in 2 relationships before him and they all ended badly or they weren’t exactly fulfilling.
My boyfriend takes great care of me, our communication is the best I’ve ever had with anyone. We have never fought or had arguments.

Unfortunately the only concern I have is the age gap, sadly I am not able to introduce him to most of my friends because I think they might judge me.
Do you have any advice on how to approach the situation? Do you think the age gap is okay and have you ever been in a similar situation.
I’d love to hear your opinions.

Well you’re over 18, so the age gap really doesn’t matter all that much anymore. Now if you were 19 and dating a guy like in his 50’s? That might be a little bit weirder. But your guy is only 30…that’s not THAT old.

You are both over 18 which is pretty much legal in most countries. Ultimately as long as you are both happy, that would be the main thing/ People will think, that he will have more of a past than you (was he married before, any kids etc), but if you are both happy, who cares. Ive seen people of the same age unhappy and cheeting, so there is a lot more to it thane age. age is just a number

Hey, thank you very much for your comment.
No, he was never married and never had any kids.

It’s quite a gap no doubt, but it’s ok since you’re both over 18. Besides, even those 11 years are gonna mean less the older you get.

So long as he doesn’t treat you like a kid

You’re both adults so. It shouldn’t really be an issue

You are both grown ups so its your choice, also I feel if you think your friends will judge you maybe its your friends who need to butt out, if they are real friends they should support you and be pleased that you have found happiness
