about age differences..val... i'm 21.. bf is 29.... met a few days after i turned 19... he turned 27 the same year... and we have quite a solid relationship going for the past 2 and a half years.... its not about the age... its about both people's maturity levels and if thats compatible, amongst other things... then yeah... no reason not to give it a shot... unless you prefer to date within a specific age bracket U know what also makes me sick? When u havent seen a friend in a while, and u talk again, and they ask you if u have someone special in your life, and u dont. Notice how they only tend to ask when they have someone special... Oh please dont complain...my third leg hasn't seen any action in such a long time that its trying to crawl away from me...imagine waking up to find it slithering off with the car keys, luckily its still attached to my cobwebs so I can reel it in in time. That might be, and all jokes aside, i would rather have someone in my life that's been through all "that shit" than experience another relationship where the other person is still "finding herself". Unfortunately, they are very rare, and i seem to have the uncanny ability to dodge these. Or i am just plain fucking blind. ///// AND WHAT ABOUT YOU????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!
