A Reddit user recently uploaded a question about the success of relationships with significant age gaps, and 17K people left their surprising remarks on this question.
The age gap between relationships plays a vital role in their success and affects both partners directly. When a user posted the question, ‘What is your opinion on a 30-year-old dating a 19-year-old?’ more than 15K people commented, and shared their point of views. Some eye-catching comments are discussed here.
A user shared his opinion saying that a relationship between a 30-year-old and a 19-year-old has fever chances of success due to lack of maturity and sense of responsibility in teenagers.
Mostly power imbalance makes the relation weak.
Another user penned his thoughts, saying that it was a big fat NO as these relationships are usually for dominance and control over the younger partner. 19 is a very young age to understand and discriminate between love and emotional abuse.Elaborating her personal experience, a user proclaimed that it might look cool and mature, but it’s nothing but devastating at the end.
She exclaimed further that in her relationship (with a similar age gap), she was far too naïve and immature to understand many things and was used by her partner, leaving her emotionally disturbed and physically destroyed.
Some people with control issues often use this sort of relationship to fulfill their needs.
They control the way their partner should sit, stand, eat or even dress up. In the case of an immature partner, it becomes pretty easy to do this for a full-grown male.A Reddit user shared her sorrowful story of how her partner manipulated her into losing her virginity to him and how she felt while being him.
He made her believe that everything is going fine when it was not and then left her after some time, blaming her for her young age issues.On the other side, a few users proclaimed that these sorts of relationships work only if both partners are given freedom, and none of them has control issues. If both members let each other grow as a person, then these relationships work out quite well.
