People say that age doesn't matter when it comes to love. Do you agree?
Should the partners be of the same level of religion?
What age is too young to date?
Etc. Etc.
Post bellow your views on relationship. If you post here anything negative about anyone else or about their views I will mute you from this post.
I mean sure you can say negative shiz about points thats what a discussion is. Rather...nothing that attacks teh user personally.

Relationships are great
Age matters a lot when you're younger but gets less important as you age
I am 19 and my girlfriend is about to turn 18. We have less than a 2 year difference total.
IMO, it's okay to start dating when you're 15-16 years old if it's nothing serious.
Also, no one can deny "love" is the only reason a lot of people get in relationships. People do it for money/tax purposes (marriage) and other personal reasons too. This happens less when young, but it's still a thing.

u r a pretty little demented ballerina snk, kinda like harley quinn in suicide squad
i got nothing. there is very little discernible pattern in the girls i get with, except for maybe that i do have a real soft spot for silly little girls like 16, 17, for whom u have been their dream all along, this handsome bad boy come to save them lol. i mean i don't get in relationships or anything serious with them, but i have stolen some of the like, most picturesque, honestly sexiest kisses from them lol. actually this girl told me i was sapiosexual before, and she's probs right. but it isn't intelligence, more like every girl is a piece of music...
but i mean like sharing values and whatever is gonna go a long way. being the same age too. all that stuff is the stuff that comes to matter more so than matters to begin with, it'll pull relationships apart, school, jobs, people will just get fcking annoying, sht like that. but i don't think u should ever hold it to matter in itself, or anything else, because that makes it like...it's empty, i think. materialistic or whatever. i dunno, i am a romantic lol. fck it
i don't think age matters particularly (unless it's illegal obv, although i see no problem with a 14 year old dating a 16 year old, 17 & 15 and 18 & 16, past that i think anything is like.. physically and morally acceptable)
one of my friends who is 19 is dating a 29 year old and they've been going strong for about 6 months now. she's the most mature person <30 i've ever met in my whole life so it doesn't surprise me that their relationship has so far been so successful
on the flip side there's a guy at my work who keeps hitting on me/implying that if i were single he'd be interested in a relationship and he's 32 so obviously he sees no problem with an age gap although i would never ever date him because despite his age he's super immature and i find that very unattractive. i feel like he realises that he's immature which is why he finds himself attracted to people way younger than him
i think the key is finding a person who you feel reflects your own maturity level regardless of their age because age doesn't always necessarily correlate with wisdom/maturity
Age is half your age plus 7 for the youngest that its appropriate for you to date. Religion hardly really matters anymore I'd say its ok to date at like 15 but not sex till maybe 17
Well, to cite Erik Erikson, his belief was that the latter stages of your teenage years are to establish a sense of self, whilst your twenties should be spent establishing a sense of your self with a counterpart. I believe that in most cases this is largely relevant, as if you do not have a healthy understanding of who you are, the influence of having a relationship, and the impacts which surround that can be vastly intrusive.
The peer pressure of today's expendable society encourages people date much earlier, more frequently, and less seriously, and all right around the time that people have not even figured themselves out. Thanks to the internet, and everything being fast paced, and the amount of opportunities in the world today, it's very difficult for anyone to be satisfied, and all the while they have immature perspectives as to who they are, what they want, and how they should be spending their time.
Moreover, those who are fortunate enough not to become reliant on the company of one specific person at an early age feel left out of the social bubble, and even this can harmfully affect the way people appraise their personal circumstance.
tl;dr people just need to be more realistic about who they are and what they want.
physical side is extremely important, don't let anyone tell you otherwise
i think you can date on the internet but it will not last unless you actually meet the person, just using that example because look where we are right now lol
I used to never want a sexual relationship until i married but my views soon changed. However i still belive that if the physical side is better than the emotional one then something may go wrong.
For example if i thought i loved a guy but all i really enjoyed was the physical and sexual side to things but it turns out on ab emtional level we do not connect. But you THINK its goibg good cause you are enjoying the physical side.

i think that the peer pressure and stereotypes perpetuated onto makes them more desperate to find someone to date, or at least it was something i personally saw and experienced, which i hope has quieted down or became less important
far too many people get destroyed by really bad relationships at any age that just leaves them with emotional scarring that takes a lot of time to fix
if you date high schoolers you have 4 to 8 years for them to finish their education depending on if they go to college which is enough time to build a lasting relationship
