    Had a girlfriend when I was in highschool who was too old for me, had an old Chevy Blazer and loved the Cake song Stickshifts and Safetybelts. Everything about her was fun on a bench seat.

            “She is just giving me a ride to/from work" was often the excuse if people saw ust together but honestly no one cared. The fact she WASN’T a teacher made it no big deal.

              I mean, if it’s consensual and there’s no power imbalance it’s nobody’s business

                That is the big issue, and I get it. I never felt weird, age wasn’t an issue. But I can also see where others could be taken advantage of.

                We ended up dating for 2 years and things ended due to life logistics. Was oddly the least crazy person I ever dated and we ended up friends after. Still bump into each other once in a while when I go back home to visit family.
