well, my bf is younger than me 3 yrs and we have been together for more than 7 yrs since high school. Whether a guy is mature or not isn't based on his age i think, it's more on his personality. There are guys who are over 30 years old but still act childishly and needless to say, there are guys or boys at younger age but can think maturely..

wth, now is the children finding a partner or them? lol

well, yeah i know such parents exists but if the man/woman that you love happens to be very filial and follow their objection, then i guess this person is not worth your love. Not like i want to separate the parents from their son/daughter but hello, which century are we in? How can both of them still have such thinking?
