I really cant get over the barrior when i am facing some girls.I wanar be your boyfriend but I am 3 years older than
you.that's really a problem for me.I think we have generation gap in between and i will lose my confidence when i am facing you though I know that i am attractive to you.what about you?would you still love the one when you know that he/she is 3or even much bigger than you?

Well,I think nowadays age is not the barrior when we chose our life patner.I feel and think everything is in our hand,how we manage it our life.I think people will say lots but I think its better not to listern but love him/her and carry on happily.

Nope. I don't think age is that of a problem when choosing a partner. Should I say, age doesn't matter when you're in love. As for me, older men can take care of you in their own mature ways unlike younger men who I think is not that committed and responsible.. But if you're in love, you can't just leave and let go of that person just because he is older/younger than you,.. :)
About you being 3 years older, just think of this:
" Some girls want a man rather than a boy "

You should be confident. :) If you're girlfriend loves you, then she'll definitely accept you for who you are without having a problem with your age. It's not like your 10-20 years older than her.. It's just a mere gap of 3 years. I bet it won't bother her at all.
As long as you show her what you are capable of as a boyfriend and as a man.. then you'll do good for sure. Best of luck!

i think there would be a slight problem when it comes to having my partner younger than me. it does matter. talking about maturity, men younger than me cannot assure me of that. what about responsibility then? well i don't think so i can assess them what it's going to be with them in the future. but hey, i'm not saying they won't work but it's just that there is no assurance.

so ,for your worry.i think every young boy will grow old and become mature.in my opinione,what's more important is whether you really love the boy in front of you.

When I was in high school I used to have girlfriends that were one or two years older than I was. Now I have a girlfriend that is 9 years younger than I am. Age is just a set of numbers if you let it be. Oh yes I am 60 years young if that makes any difference to you. I have even had girlfriends that were 25 years younger than I was at the time so two years difference is not a barrier or should not be a barrier to relationships.

Hi xingkong178,
In my opinion age is defenite factor. Boys should be older than girls. But in love every thing is going in the opposite side.
