I'm 18 and he's 24

Mmm... why do you think so ahead in the futur? Just enjoy your relation right now.

Let's Start a Love Riot.

Any more than 3-4 years is too much, in my opinion.

Of course one should think of the future if they're in a long-term, serious relationship. You have to think of the outcome of every action you make.

i dont think it's that bad.. it just sounds bad when you say it, but personally, i dont like a BIG age difference

Right now it may sound like a big age difference, but in 10 years, it wont sounds so big anymore. Anyway, Who am i to talk, I was dating a 30 year old guy not long ago.

I don't see it this way, i think you should just enjoy what you have right now. Thinking too much about the futur will ruin things. Who knows if you'll still together when you're going to be 24? Your situation would probably be a lot different than it is now, so why starting to think about right away?

Let's Start a Love Riot.

Honestly, to me age difference doesn't matter much. I almost dated a guy who was like 8 years older to me, it didn't work out but still I feel that age difference shouldn't be much of an issue between two consenting adults, if they love each other.

18-24, no problem, but if it was something like 13-19, same age difference, but totally inappropriate.

I didn't choose the thug life

My mom picked it out for me at walmart

Well I think in this case it would depend on the individuals in the relationship.

If you're the typical, in dorm college student that likes to go to parties or act super silly and crap, it may not work. But if you're more mature live on your own, serious about college for education, have a job, etc then it will work maybe.

Has he gone to college, have a career or just a job? etc.

I personally honor the 10% rule. 10% of your age is the differeation allowed.

At 18 it would be 1,8 so an age span of 16-20.

Since the difference between you two is 6 years, it'll fix itselfs when you are 60.
