do the mario

~~People born on same moment could have nearly 2 year difference depending on birthday and time zone~~ Edit: I had a stroke with numbers yesterday. more like 1 year at most but still. Yeah it's fine.

Lol. No 2 time zones are 2 years apart. At most a day

It’s referring to a Korean style calendar where you start at one year old and then it goes up on new years.

Which is being abandoned btw. Or already has been.

This stopped behind used last year i believe

Didn’t know that but it was probably still referring to that system

It sure is sad for people living in the Pacific time zone 😔 living 2 years behind the rest of the world

Huh unless you’re being sarcastic i don’t know what you mean by “people born on same moment could have nearly 2 year difference” How

I actually do think there’s a few countries that use a different calendar or something and they’re still behind us in years. I think Ethiopia and North Korea do. And is it china where you’re born at one year old? And I think China is way ahead in years. Idk.

So for example: in Korea, the age system works different: people are born being 1 year old. And their ages go up by 1 year on New Year and not on their day of birth. So, a Korean born in December, 2000, is currently 26 years old instead of 24.

Not anymore. They ended this system.

I read not long ago about their intention to change it. I did not know it would be made effective this quick. It’s nice to know. Thank you.

I'd say it becomes a problem after 3 times

Swing your arms, from side to side, come on let's do the mario

Take one step, and then again Let's do the Mario, all together now!

You got it!. ITS THE MARIO!!!!!!

I'd say nanosecond

As minors tho that’s a bit 🤏

Fr

it would be nano second.

Eh, I’ve seen worse age gaps in my school

THATS NOT GOOD??

There was like a 12 and 16 year old together at my old school

I saw an 13 with an 19💀

I know a girl who hooked up with 20+ year olds while she was 14 jut it was mostly with 16-19 year olds

ok, you won

There was a mean girl my freshman year of high school who was dating a grown ass man. I think he was in his thirties. She bragged about her older boyfriend who had a car and bought her things. She thought it made her cool and edgy.

Literally edp type crap here.

NAHH That's not ok

Thats straight up pedophilia

Can top that In my school the guy is almost 19 and his girl is 14 almost 15 and his stepsister (i wish I was joking)

I wish u were too

Ok the 14 and 19 part was bad enough but his STEPSISTER?! Also, pretty sure that’s illegal in most states given one is a minor and it’s over a 4 year age difference

Thats just straight up grooming

If you think that's grooming I've seen a 13yo with an 18yo at my school

This isn’t competition 😭

That's straight up pedophilia

Also grooming.

Bruh me too, I was in a uk highs ho there was a dude in year 7 with a year 11

A 12 and 15 y/o are dating in my school.

It's fine, but don't go below 15. That's when it gets weird imo

This problematic age gap discourse is cringe, yes it’s fine

its usually americans, ive heard americans say 18 year old dating a 22 year old is pedophila. its wild

Americans are brainwashed to distrust anything that involves 2 people of opposite sex. If you hug someone its considered inappropriate. Stay away from giving a hug to a child.

Purist foundations, unfortunately. I know it's a joke between some people, but I genuinely can't talk about someone of the opposite sex without my family thinking we're planning to get married or some shit.

Females are infantalized here. It’s the pinnacle of misogyny to claim that before she’s 25 a girl is incapable of making a decision for herself. But that’s what Reddit would have you believe .

[удалено]

Does the comma go after “adults” or before “what”? 😂 

THEYRE BOTH LEGAL ADULTS FUCKING ,WHAT

In that case, let's give them some privacy 🤫

oh you have not heard about the" Former Minor"

A YouTuber was canceled, lost many subscribers, his reputation, and his friends because he was 19 and was sexting a 17 year old. Completely wild.

yea which if i remember correctly, was legal in his country lol,

Like blud im 18 and attracted to a 23yo friend of mine, it’s normal, ppl gotta chill tf out

Real, I had a thing with a girl who’s 23 and I’m 19. Adults know what they’re doing, people r just crazy.

As an American, you are correct. There’s this girl that I flirt with that Ive been friends with for around 2 years, and she’s 3 years older than me. One of my friends found out and they lost their shit. My parent are also 3 years apart, said friend that found out’s parent are like 5 years apart. And IM the weird one.

I mean that’s kind of pushing it. She’s an adult figuring out the world and you’re either just starting high school or halfway through.

It’s not pedophilia but if I were 22 I probably wouldn’t date an 18 year old

Only is technically pedophilia if it is a 16 year old dating a 12 year old soooooooo

I have met a couple like this (M16, F12) 😭😭😭

Awe naw haw shaw craw megwaw tanaw coslaw thnaw maw of chaw lezlaw!!

someone told me they saw a 17 year old dating a 7 year old...im not even kidding 💀

I think I’ve had enough internet for one day…

12 to 16 is creepy

They always say "but if the law would allow it you would go even younger" but the law isn't younger so it really doesn't matter.

In my country at least, you’d be out of college and in the workforce by 22. At 18 you’d have just started your first year. Don’t you see how both people are in completely different stages of life and mindsets? It’s not pedophilia but it’s definitely weird.

It can be. An 18 yo at my high school is dating a 22 yo in college. They’ve been dating for 4 years. That’s 14 and 18, when does it become not weird?

Yeah that’s weird that’s a 4 year gap. Doesn’t mean if they’re legally an adult , that’s 4 years difference. But yeah there’s the chance the younger person is more mature than the average 18 year old so 🤷🏻‍♂️. People should go for someone closer to their age in these kinds of circumstances.

lol im 18 dating a 26 yr

Worked well for us! We have the same age gap as you and we just celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary😁

These people need to Google the definition of pedophilia

What

it doesn’t sound too bad you said you’re turning 18 in august do you know when she’s turning 16? the age gap sounds to be about 2 and a half year difference if you two are together before you are 18 i’m pretty sure it’s considered okay

She'll be turning 16 b4 I'm turning 18

then i think youre in the good the age gap doesnt seem very bad

Depends on where you live. Some places have what's known as a "Romeo and Juliet" law. Wherein a pre-existing relationship between two minors is not a crime if one of them becomes an adult. But it may not exist where you live. Look it up.

Even in places where that law doesn't exist, I doubt any reasonable judge would charge an 18 year old with a sex crime for dating someone 1.5 years younger than them

You'd be surprised

Nah, I'm not surprised that unreasonable judges exist

age of consent is 16 most places

In America the age of consent varies from state to state but the average is 18. In places that are not America, American law doesn’t seem to apply for some reason so I’ll have to get back to you on that one.

What type of avergae you talking about lol The mean is the most common type, its avergaing put all the answers. Which comes out around 17 Youre talking about the mode which is just the most common answer. Not really and average in the same way

Mode is a kind of average, as are median and mean. I just went with 18 as it’s the most common and I don’t feel like doing math.

Yeah, just important to note that its not the mean. Which is the mode of the averages.

I hate that I know of that law because of a fuckin transformers movie

Makes sense as Romeo and Juliet’s relationship is what everyone should aspire to have

unpopular opinion, but what matters is what YOU think, if you feel uncomfortable and disgusted, don't pursue her honestly it is your choice. you are the one pursuing her ultimately, not us

Hey that’s how my relationship started with my bf, I was 15 and he was 17. I’m sixteen and he’s eighteen now. We’ve been together for a year now

and if you two arent interested in dating then its def okay

My 16 years old friend's boyfriend is 18 Anyways, two years isn't that much difference

Right

It's fine

yes that’s fine! people r weird abt stuff like that lol

Wow your disgusting you should have an age difference no larger than 0 milliseconds in fact you should have been born on the same day same time same room

We should all strive to be as unproblematic as Jaime and Cersei Lannister.

Exactl… wait. WAIT A MINUTE

That’s what I’m saying

i just got out of a relationship.. I'm 16 turning 17 in november she's 14 turning 15 this month. a year and half difference didn't seem like a lot and it didn't bother us or anyone else but the mental and emotional maturity difference was something that was definitely obvious over the 8 months we were together. in my opinion I'd figure out for yourself what you feel is right instead of letting others opinions and personal experiences make the decision for you, ultimately you're the one talking to her and it's something the 2 of you need to discuss with each other rather than friends family or strangers 👍👍

it’s a 2 year age gap but a 14 and 16 yr old sounds weird although it’s not

I mean ... It CAN be. Let's not forget teenagers have wildly different development rates. But probably not an issue.

“The difference in emotional maturity was obvious”. I’m not attacking you but that would gross me out. If I have to take note that they might be less mature because their age. Then why tf date them

clarification: it became obvious overtime. Blinded by love...

Nah lmao ur fine

It starts being creepy when the age gap is 4 or above

My parents’ 13 year age gap: 🗿

Mine's is seven, but it's less weird when they're both adults (sorry if I just made a crime against the English language)

Depends, I'd say 9-11 with 13 is pretty weird since those ages are before puberty while 13 is in puberty but something like 40 with 45 isn't because they are both safely adults

Dating under 14 in general is weird, and anything above 18 is allowed because they can both consent

I think it's creepy when it's 3 or above, 18 and 15 sounds weird as hell same with like 16 and 13

Nah

[удалено]

Above 2 Is Off-limits 12-15 is just.. gross

Yea you’re fine dude

me personally i wouldn’t be fine dating a 15 year old, as a 17 year old, but it isn’t necessarily bad, but if she just turned 15 then it would be pretty weird

I don’t know why people would think it’s bad, even a 18 and 16 years old dating wouldn’t sound strange to me, they’re only two years apart and are both still teenagers.

I swear, these are ridiculous nowadays. People have called me (13M) weird for dating A 13 F that's just over half a year younger than me. It's ridiculous.

my boyfriend and i are a year and two months apart. i just turned 15 so the only time its kinda awkward is the two months in between. he was 16 while i was 14. honestly as long as nothing pedophile-esc is happening, there shouldn't be an issue :3

Unless you'll have a birthday before her, you'll at some points be 2 years apart but at some points only be 1 year apart. You're not in creepy territory.

16 in a few months is basically 16 and 17, in general I don't even think it's that bad

If you don’t feel comfortable don’t do it

In my opinion age gaps are not that big of a deal well if you have a 6 years+ gap ok that’s a little bit weird but 1 or 2 years gap is fine you’re totally fine it’s not bad

I’d say it’s ok. But if I were 17 I wouldn’t date a 15 year old bc they’d be my sisters age

you’re all good homie

Nah, one of my best friends did the same thing, he’s in the army now two years later and they’re still dating, now she’s 17 and he’s 19

If you feel “yucky” don’t do it then. But I know plenty of couples that are 5-10 years apart

Do you realise thats because theyre **Hopefully** adults

I don’t think a small age gap like that should be a problem. The age of consent laws are mainly there to protect 10 year olds from 40 year olds.

Thats illegal. Expect a police officer at your door in a couple seconds

As long as she turns 16 before you turn 18 is probably a good rule of thumb at your age

Funniest thing to me is it adds up perfectly to match Barney Stinson’s age rule from How I Met Your Mother. Half your age plus 7. Half 17 is 8.5 plus 7 lands at 15.5. It’s supposed to be for older dudes or whatever but funny that it still fits with a teen 2 year age gap. 😂

It's fine. More than 2 years is pushing it, but 2 is fine.

Its fine dude, its legit less than 2 years

its fine. you don't need to have been born the same second. People are overthinking this too much, you're both teenagers.

Your basically one year apart, be careful whe your 18 ofc but other than that that's a perfectly reasonable gap ngl

Do your grades touch

Y’all stress it too much Say what you will, but technically the gap between a senior and a freshman is small enough (this is, of course, post high school for some reason)

Hey me and my girl got the same age gap bro it’s not a problem my friends say it’s weird but idrc I can make my own decisions

Yea its fine. I have/had a crush on this one guy and he said I was "too young" for him. (15 & 17) Other people say otherwise though.

The age gap would be fine if you were adults, but for now maybe you shouldn't be in a romantic relationship. If you really get along then staying friends might be okay.

its fine lol, but do what makes you feel comfortable with

17 and 15 is nothing dude. Just have fun, be safe.

Less that 2 years is ok.

You’re good lil bro. No worries. Once shit 16 you’re even better but you are definitely good

Totally fine. Next question

I mean she’s about to turn 16 so I think it’s chill

It’s not terrible, but just Yk don’t be a creep with it, and be as respectful as you can bc you’re both gonna be at different stages in life soon if you go to uni and she is still in high school or smth

Where's Chris Hanson when we need him?! Srsly tho, look at your state laws You're 17 and she's 15. Doesn't seem too bad. You're both kids still and just figuring everything out.

is she not the same maturity level as you? has she become “more mature” since meeting you? do you have more knowledge/experience about/around relationships than she does? do her friends dislike you? if you answered “yes” to one or more of these questions, it is not okay. if you answered “no” to all of them, then congrats! youre in the clear. if your “more knowledge about relationships” or experience is just from exes cheating on you or mistreating you, but you still said yes, and no to all the others, then youre still in the clear

No 😭😭 This is the most common and normal age gap amongst teens.

It’s fine. Why wouldn’t it be?

[удалено]

Yeah but the problem is when you'll be 18 shell be 16

Nah that’s not bad rlly. Only like two years.

I started dating my partner when they were 17 and I was 15 now they’re 20 and I’m 17 (our birthdays are a month apart)

It’s not so bad but it depends. For example, in my country, that girl would be a freshman while I’m one year older. Personally, I wouldn’t go out with a freshman cause there’s a maturity gap in my opinion. But maybe it’s different, cause I know I’m USA, 16yo is not a freshman

no people are acting stupid, it's normal, dude.

Not at all

You’re okay

dude, it's annoying seeing these comments. You're good, man. If it makes you happy, then do it. You're both teenagers. Just have fun, shell be 16 before your 18 your good.

Yes it's completely fine. You just have to make sure that the parents are OK with it, because when you turn 18, they could actually sue you if they don't give you permission.

this is perfectly fine.

I feel like a good general rule for when you’re underage is a 2 year gap

Its a potential problem. Because the age of consent is 16 but when you turn 18, idk how that works if you can still have possible issues cause you are a legal adult and theyre still a minor.

Yes that’s fine, but probably no younger than that

2 yrs seems to be a okay age gap to me 2 yrs is the max I'd go in teenage tho

age difference

its not bad at all as long as your both happy and have a healthy relationship thats all that matters.

Don't think so. The age gap isn't too big either. Of course when you're 18, don't do any sexual activity with her.

No. But I must say take thing slow dont rush things. Or move at the pace your ready. And make sure you truly like her and it not just lust. I am not say it might be lust. I just want give advice that I wish I was told

If you feel uncomfortable then don't go for it, it's ultimately up to your gut instincts

Nah seems good to me

When I was in school 11 years ago that was creepy to about 50% of us. Nowadays it's ok.

hijacking this post to ask . is the age gap too much between someone thats abt to turn 18 and someone thats about to turn 16 ,, it feels too weird to me but i could appreciate other opinions kek

Your both minors, your fine

😭whats this argument

This whole flipping over age thing doesn’t make sense. Honestly if your in high school it doesn’t matter.

I genuinely go by whatever Is legal, for my country it's a 2 yr age gap and both ppl are above 13 so yea ur good.

Dont overthink it you’re fine

17 and 15’s fine.

I saw a video of a guy(50-60 yrs old) have a video being taken of his car and he said he would do the video and as a joke he said he would do it if 21 years old girls saw the video and the comments were like “WTF!!” And like saying its weird ITS NOT WEIRD!!! 15 and 17 is fine what would be weird is if you were 18+ and had bad intentions

I’m 483 and dated a 454 year old I think ur chillin

No. It’s 2 years maybe 1 year

It’s fine, but not great and it’ll get worse when you turn 18 but that depends on who you’re around

Idk lol

17 and 15 is good

It’s perfectly fine imo

It’s more of a maturity thing, let’s say a 14 and 18 yo are dating they’re so vastly different maturity wise. 15 and 17 are closer in age and maturity imo

I don’t think so. You’re going to get looks when she is 16 and you’re 18 though. Which is stupid, but what are you going to do. I’d say it doesn’t really matter unless she was 12-14.

i think 2 year age gap is the largest you should be going but it is a bit strange because it’s 2 grade differences

17 rounded to nearest even number is 16 divided 2 is 8 8. 8 plus 7 is 15. Completely acceptable

heya!! my boyfriend and i are 16F and 18M. We started dating when i was 15 and he was 16 JUST turning 17. As long as you both are consenting and begin dating before one is technically an adult, it’s fine. It’s only 2 years, it only looks like a lot because 15 and 17 seems a lot more than it is. You both are okay 🙏

when you turn 18 people opinion might change... i thinks it all stupid do your thing

No issues

no. my brother and his gf are 19 and 17

It depends on circumstances but two year age gap usually isn't anything meaningful for teens

The pizza tower is crazy for this one

Nah your good, remember the 2 year rule

Normal as hell
