Is this okay?

My best friend has been looking for a good, happy relationship, but keeps having issues finding a guy that likes her. She found one, but he wasn’t what she was looking for. He was younger, immature, and didn’t know how to treat a woman. (He treated her like a guy friend.) So she broke up with him.

Her birthday was last Friday. She turned 18. Well we found out that on her birthday, a guy formed a crush on her. He is 23. I know him personally and he’s a really nice guy. I gave her his number and they’ve been texting non-stop, and they like each other. Now she’s having people tell her not to date him, that it’s a no no because he’s older and has more experience. They’re saying it’s wrong for her to date such an older guy and all he want is sex. But he doesn’t. We all asked him. He just wants a loving caring relationship.

So is it alright? And if you have any advice, what should she do?

I believe that it would be wrong if the male just wanted sex. but since he is not looking for sex, any age would work but only if they truly love each other. my advice to her is if you really love him stay, if you don't let him go. Hope this helps and good luck

An age difference of 5 years is definitely not something to ignore, but honestly they're both adults and it's all up to them.

I would have mirrored what TGB said. Keep an eye on your friend in case she needs support, but the decision is hers.

Dating is about finding out about others and whether compatibility exists. If she is safe and likes the guy, why not try. Maybe he has a reputation because he hasn't found her yet
