Is Age Really Just a Number?
The miss turned 20 in March and I will turn 28 in October. She just reminded me that she was in 5th grade when 9/11 happened while I was a Junior in high school. 
It's not so much the number as it is the personality and person.

Kinda wanted to bump this thread for some advice. Ok so on the 8th paige will turn 21 with myself still being 19. I'm kinda worried on how this might effect our relationship. I do mean kinda though, shes not much of a drinker but she likes to party.
We have a very strong relationship and I focus on keeping it that way since I'm always so busy. I'm just worried about maybe a distance forming, should I though?

Coal, talk to her, let her know that you want her to have fun, but also make her know that the age difference bothers you and that you want her to be responsible and make sure that you're involved
I'm probably just worrying for nothing lol

Expect that she may want to go to a bar now and again if she has 21 year old friends. Let her. I think you only need to discuss something if she's bar-hopping every weekend leaving you behind. Until then, just enjoy it. If you start expecting something to change, you'll start seeing things that aren't there.

That's enough time to figure out if you can trust her for a night or not. While there will always be a "what if?" situation, you should be able to look past it and trust her.
I don't understand the concern. When I turned 21, my wife was 19. All that changed was that I was allowed to buy us booze instead of someone else. What am I missing? The fear of what might change wasnt stated but implied, and I missed it.
