Age has a lot less to do with birth certificates than we like to think; maturity is a state of mind.
If interested in you, oot, what's the harm in seeing if there's some common ground? Sure, three years, today, is a seventh of your life--every Friday you've ever lived--and a full sixth of hers. In ten years, though? Meh, you'll be hard-pressed to know the difference. And in twenty years, you'll think of everyone within a decade of your age as being part of your generation.
The biggest difference between the two of you, right now, is your education--you've had a good three years of university thrown at you, and she's still just out of High School--she's got a lot of experience to gain in a quick time. But that doesn't make as much of a gap as you might think, if she's already had enough kicking around from life to know about choices and consequences. And you'll likely figure out in a really short time frame if she hasn't developed that maturity, yet. Give yourself, and her, the chance to find out, and then ponder the age gap, is my advice.
Best Luck, to the both of you; you're a h4 of a catch, too, oot, and she'll be lucky to ensnare you in her thrall. ;-) |
