Age difference question

[leothelioness]

Hey

I'd like your advice.

There's a girl I know as a friend. I've begun to have feelings for her recently and would think about asking her out, but

The thing is I'm 28 and she is 21.
Is this age difference too big?

Absolutely not. You're two consenting adults. An age gap is not an issue. Maybe if you were 18 and she were 11, yeah that would be too much, but you're not. I say go for it!

I was engaged to a girl that was 8 years younger then me. And just recently I've been out with someone that is 10 years younger than me. Age is just a number. Everything just depends on the two people involved.

Did much change after turning 30? Even with the same age gap, it sounds like a greater gap when one is in their 30s and the other is in their 20s. I probably just have to 'get over it', but being 30 (still not used to it yet) has got me wondering about this sort of thing.

If you've known her as a friend, you must know her enough for your feelings to be more than physical. Age differences realistically comes into play if the two of you are on different levels mentally & physically. Ask her out & see. 1 plus 1 still equals 2! Most problems come when a man & woman are unyoked spiritually or/and physically.

I love being in my thirties
Glad that I am no longer in my twenties
Because I felt that I know more
Than I used too!

I don't see a problem with the age gap. But do you yourself see hurdles there, that is the question??
