He's exactly that: a boy. He may be almost legally an adult, but he isn't one yet. It bothers me just as much as it bother me when I see an underage girl dating an adult man. If my husband had known me when I was 17, he would never have started a relationship with me at that time because I was a child and it would have been inappropriate. <br /><br />If Styles were, say, 25 and Flack 40, I'd still think it was weird but I wouldn't find it creepy. I do hope their relationship is deep and sincere. My husband often either gets high-fived or teased because he has a young wife. It's not easy (and I realize my above criticism may sound a bit hypocritical given our age gap), and you need to be really, really committed to each other. I'm not convinced that most 17-year-olds have the maturity that's needed for that kind of commitment.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02058600483996003142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468836798747722663.post-29758763928490331232011-12-19T06:06:41.746-05:002011-12-19T06:06:41.746-05:00As a woman who has dated younger men for the past ...As a woman who has dated younger men for the past several years, there is a part of me that says "good for you" to Caroline Flack. On the other hand, I think that dating someone that young is a bit dicey. If he were not still in his teens and had a bit more life experience it would be one thing but he's a very young 17. Of course, she nay have the maturity level of a 17 so that might be the attraction. But then again, I know someone who started dating her husband, when he was 19 and she was 25 and they are very happy. It's so individual but I agree that people still look askance women who are older than their partner. We still seem to be conditioned that it should be the other way around.Elizabeth Kerri Mahonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07763642809052430107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468836798747722663.post-9136904796801838592011-12-18T23:47:04.772-05:002011-12-18T23:47:04.772-05:00I think people are too judgmental about the entire...I think people are too judgmental about the entire older woman younger man romance. You never know what works out and yes looking at the statistics it would seem that most of these romances don't go all the way but hell even the traditional older man younger woman thingies get over in a few months and years. We should just let these couples be instea dof constantly keeping them under the scanner just because the woman is considerably older than the man.Utopiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10704721941622143439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468836798747722663.post-58358035035712682442011-12-18T08:21:34.955-05:002011-12-18T08:21:34.955-05:00I think it's the fact that he's 17 which h...I think it's the fact that he's 17 which has some people appalled. Michael Douglas might be 25 years older than his wife but she was 30 when they started dating. I imagine if a 17 year old girl were dating a 32 year old man, the same people would be just as appalled. I met my husband when I was almost 18 and he was 24 - even that caused a bit of a stir with some people at first.<br /><br />Demi Moore is about 16 years older than Ashton Kutcher and I do recall some raised eyebrows about it when it first came out that they were dating but I don't remember there being "outrage", probably because he was about 25 at time, not exactly a teenager. <br /><br />I think the older you get, the more an age gap closes. And at only 17, a 15 year age gap is going to seem much bigger than, say, a 30 year old with a 45 year old.<br /><br />Then again, I do think that getting involved in the entertainment industry and becoming famous would probably make teenagers grow up faster in some ways. Ultimately, if his parents are okay with it and it's legal... it's not really my business.History Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07984934236728821742noreply@blogger.com
