I am a 24 year old male and I have been going on dates with a 19 year old female college student. We haven't had sex but we have made out. Is the age gap weird? I enjoy spending time with her but it is frequently in the back of my mind that I'm too old for her. We're not in a relationship or anything, we've just been going on dates.
Didn't ask my friends lest I be branded a weirdo.
Curious to hear others' experiences in a similar situation, either as the older person or the younger one. How did the relationship end if it did? Do you regret anything?

Most will say if you're over 18, who cares.
In reality, people cringe at old actors in their 40s and 50s dating 18 year olds. But they can get away with it cause of their fame and wealth.
Your gap of 5 years is normal honestly.
Now lets see what the other anons have to say:

Just follow the age rule to determine whether or not your relationship will be socially accepted.
(Your Age)/2 + 7 = (Youngest Dating Age)
Your present age gap is within allowable limits.
Only terminally-online, discourse obsessed weirdos will ever call you out on it. No normal person will care or at least care enough to disassociate with you.
Another secret rule: Do not date anyone who is young enough to reasonably be your child.

This is not an age gap, and even if it was, who gives a fuck? You could be a 90 year old and fuck an 18 year old, as long as you have the means and it's legal. It's not immoral, and the only people complaining are those who can't do the same and foids.

The rule is a reliable guide for those who can't help but obsess over the acceptance of their peers.
It's not some natural law or universal standard. Just a little shorthand that will typically keep people without good sense out of trouble.
Ultimately, the only thing that truly matters if you are both consenting adults.
No one should be required to be familiar with it.

>The rules...
There is a difference between "the rules", which are laws and codes we are expected to follow as a society, and "a rule" which can refer to a method to bring about a desired outcome.
You seem to take issue with the former when I am referring to the latter.

I guess my main concern is that I'd be taking advantage of her since she doesn't have as much life and relationship experience that I have gained in the five years between 19 and 24. I also wonder if I am putting her on a pedestal due to her youth.

Are you suggesting we should date younger or are you taking issue with how the formula was presented?

The age gap thing is a very recent phenomenon done by jealous people who wish they were in your position. Don’t listen to them
I remember as a child, having crush on a girl and feeling all giddy by simply looking at her, talking to her. The prospect of holding hands was lewd. Do what is required, but be the man(not red pilled blue pilled retard or even traditional, no one knows what it means, but remember that in calamity it’s the man that everyone looks up to do what is necessary), if things follow naturally and you’ve done pipi inside vajayjay then wonderful. Cherish each other, forget all else. Let it blossom into a wonderful marriage.
