Title: Somehow I have^n^n^n^n HAD a date with a college student tomorrow.
Post by: Howard Alan Treesong on October 25, 2007, 10:33:09 PM: Circumstances have made it such that I have a date with a cute Asian film school student tomorrow. She seems like an interesting and smart individdle. But while I'm firmly ensconced in the high-stakes world of international business wheeling/deeling, she's fretting about finals. And, I dunno, her nails. Affording textbooks? God, we have nothing in common except our mutual love of Lars von Trier's The Five Obstructions.

I feel like a creepy old man! I am 28 and she is 21. (n / 2 + 7) puts her exactly at my lower limit. Recent studies have shown that I lack any moral compass whatsoever*, so I am turning to Evilbore to find out if this date is going to be totally sweet--or if our nascent relationship is, like a third-party Wii game, doomed from the start.

* Not that you guys are paragons.

Post by: TakingBackSunday on October 25, 2007, 10:36:08 PM: It's a tad creepy, yeah. But as long as you don't ACT like a creep, I don't see why it's a problem.

That said, I voted for the creep option.

Post by: Madrun Badrun on October 25, 2007, 10:44:42 PM: Fuck the two above. Its not fucking creepy at all. The modern thing against age differences is weird. When I marry in my late forties I hope it's to some one twenty years younger.

FUHTA it hard.

But so is a 28 year old. Asians don't look old until after 30, or so I hear.

Post by: Fragamemnon on October 25, 2007, 10:53:27 PM: My wife is ten years older than I am. I don't even think about it very much, outside of appropriate retirement planning.

Have fun, don't even think about the age thing because it doesn't really matter. I might say otherwise if she was like a bookwormy biology or chemistry major angling for pre-med, but a film student? Nah, she's an adult and has proper social development, I would think.

Post by: TVC15 on October 25, 2007, 11:27:35 PM: I'm telling you Patel, the younger they are, the easier they are to bed. You got it made here. If you flub up and she isn't into it at the end of the night, put on a good ol Mean Daddy or Santa Claus act and tell her she's been very naughty, and needs a good spanking. If that line doesn't work, and it usually does, start dating chicks a few years younger, like 15 or 16. They usually open the gates if you do their algebra for them.

I doubt there'll be any problem. if you're willing to date her and you have similar movie tastes why would there be an intolerable difference in maturity?

Is that what you're into, or is it just that all the girls you end up dating turn out to be Asian? Because every girl I've been on a date with this year turned out to be at least partially Irish. Though I don't really go out of my way to only date Irish chicks.

you should be at least taste testing for your younger brothers!

come on, you get to dunk in the basket and give the odd lay up!

I said I'd have no problems having sex with them, but I couldn't date one.

I'm in a long term relationship though so the point is moot.
