Is it bad for a 27 yo male to talk to a 18 yo female details inside?

I've been single for about a year .. We got this new girl and we started talking . She was so nice to me and cute hard not to be attractive she told me she was 18. The next day at work one of my co workers gives me a paper it has her number . She wants to talk ore with me . Making a long story short we start talking more and people notice this at work . Two of my coworkers talked to me about this and said I look like a creeper and that's not the look I want exspecialy at work ... I thought about it and told her we shouldn't talk anymore . What's your opinion on this ? Is this in appropriate ? Am I that guy who looks like a creeper ?

    The fact that this is an issue at all shows that there is something seriously wrong with our society.

    First off, you are 27 and she is 18. You are both adults and it is not like you're old enough to be her dad or anything. This kind of age difference is negligible.

    Second, you are not having sex with her, not even dating her, you are just TALKING to her. A man today is not even allowed to TALK to younger women? This is so ridiculous, it is the kind of thing you'd expect to see in a Sharia state.

    Third, people would not be saying this if you were a 27 year old woman talking to an 18 year old guy. That is because this whole stigma was create by bitter women and is only meant to apply to men. So anyone who promotes it has no credibility.

    She's a bit young for you, and you will have problems. In most places 18 is legal, so you can pursue it if you wish. But you'll be competing with other 18 year old males. Guess which one will win out? I don't know your financial status either. Are you wealthy? If so, take that into consideration.

    You telling her not to talk to you is more creepy toward her than you talking to her would be to other people. You are basically being a bit of an as shole frankly. To the young lady I mean. Unless there's another reason not to talk to her like you just don't want to lead her on (a cruel-to-be-kind type of thing) . You're kind of reverse creep shaming her by dramatizing your own internalized creep shaming. Think how that feels to her that you are giving her a cold shoulder after she opened up to you.

    You're both adults and can talk to whomever you choose. If you get on and both enjoy each others company and conversation, who cares what anyone else thinks? 9 years is not a huge age difference. When I was 18 I was dating a 56 year old....in hindsight THAT's creepy. You're doing nothing wrong, enjoy the friendship and the journey it takes you on.

    She's 18, it's legal.. I know a lot of 18-19 year old girls dating guys in their mid-late 20's, it's actually pretty normal

    Firstly it's normal and natural. Secondly calling you a creeper is hate speech. Thirdly you should have them charged with sexual harassment in the workplace.

    You definitely look creepy and predatory, yes. But at the end of the day, if she is pursuing you and you like her, she is legally an adult and if it's consensual, there is legally nothing wrong with it. Morally, though..... Well, it's more of a gray area.

    Bit cradle snatchy maybe,but if she is legally an adult in the eyes of the law then theres nothing wrong with it

    I think that's a sign that you might be a pedophile.

    Talking is fine -- but it needs to be about BUSINESS ONLY, not personal items.

    OUTSIDE of business, there is no problem.
