Is he a year old and you're eight months old? After that, the 4 month age difference should be acceptable.

Your comment : Sounds like he just wanted an excuse to leave OP. Dont worry about him. Find someone who appreciates you for - you.

I think he can be charged if you're 17 and he's 18 for instance. But even so... That excuse is so /b/.

I'm 24 years OLDER than the mother of my 17 month old son. She just turned 21 in July. That's an age gap! And to the peanut gallery... No, I don't troll for younger women. I wasn't looking for a younger woman it just happened, so keep the pedo remarks to yourself.

Is he taking actual age or is he saying u act so young (and immature) that it is like dating a very young child?

My husband and I are 6 years apart, I was 17 when we started seeing each other, and have been together ever since, now with 2 kiddos 7 & 4! He is just looking for a way out, age is only a number and 4 months isn't much of a difference.
