This isn't about 'times changing' or taboos. If you search the site for other postings by Doc, I think you'll find he could give a crap about taboos.
This is about maturity level, and Doc is absolutely correct. I've been that 19 year old girl, the only difference was he was 29 and a father already, but that doesn't matter. I remember the night he actually spoke to me as if I were a child. I was so tempted to tell him I wasn't *insert his daughter's name here* so he'd best watch his tone.
OP is not remotely who she will be when he's this guy's age, and he's not remotely who he was when he was her age. They are completely and totally at different places in their lives--to such an extent that any attempt at a relationship is doomed. It's not even worth the time or energy.
And, oh, by the way, am I honestly the only one here who sees a red flag in the fact that a 31 year old man wants to date a 19 year old girl?????
