Do you think it's wrong to like a younger guy

If I was single I would date Anne and Isabelle.


If you are of adult age then no-one has a right to comment on who you choose to date.

Especially if Autistic, we have a much smaller dating pool when seeking others like us, who cares about age, it's how you make each other feel and I don't mean that in a sexual way.
People can light up another person's life like no-one else ever has, if you reject that based on age then you are an idiot.

*I'm not calling anyone here an idiot, that would make me worse than mr H*

I fully understand what you mean. However my family and friends don't feel the same way and i already have little people around me. If i say screw it and have a relationship with this guy and it doesn't work out? I will be left alone with my parents and friends' prejudice. So i can't take this risk.

But your dad is 6 years older than your mum?????
it's your life and not theirs.

You'll also find out who your real friends are, family always forgives especially when they are being hypocritical dingdongs.

You have full right to make your own choices, even if some of them turned out wrong. It's your life, not theirs!

Don't know why people are as much into the age. What's up with that? As long as a couple likes each other anything is OK because they have to be with each other. Do I miss something?

Well, you would say that being 321 years old.

They would seriously just completely cut you out of their lives just because they don't think it would work out with him? Seems like they need to grow up if that is the case. I would not let them control your life if they are in the way of what you want to do. Also doesn't really seem like they are very good friends if they can't respect that you are an adult and can choose to go out with another consenting adult even with the risk it might not work out.

Or are do you have anxiety issues and your just worried that is how they would react?

That said if you you did start dating him, you don't have to tell your friends/family at least not at first, so if it doesn't amount to anything they wouldn't even have to know. If they want to know what your doing just say you met someone online and are going on a date with them. Though if it did get serious you'd have to mention it at some point as you can't hide a serious relationship.

I might be overreacting, since i have a fear of abandonment and even the smallest of criticism affects me so much. It"s like i need people's approval for everything other wise i feel guilty. But some of my friends reacted so much i'm not sure what to think.

Your friends may also be jealous, especially if you think he likes you.

Follow your heart here lass, it doesn't even matter if it doesn't work out, it's your life and every mistake is yours to make, and some mistakes even turn out to be fun.

Have a wee bit of faith in yerself.

Thanks guys, i feel a lot better now thanks to you. I'm not even sure if i like him romantically i just enjoy the fact that someone likes me and understands my character even a little. It's so hard for me to make a connection to someone and when i do that person becomes so precious to me. I wish whatever happens, we continue to have a good relationship whether as friends or lovers.

There's nothing wrong with liking a younger guy....point blank!

Listen to Kraftie, he really likes younger guys on here, you should see the PMs he sends me when he is drunk.

I think he's had too much of the Auld Sod.....

That actually made me laugh out loud:lol: seriously thank you i really needed some cheering up!

We are not perfect, none of us will ever be on the cover of a magazine or even quoted before we die.
We are autistic and we are a tribe, you are our equal and a member.
We all feel as you do, maybe not just now, but we have, and there is nothing wrong with it.
You are precious to all of us.

I've actually always liked older women.....ever since I was a young kid.
