Are you serious. LisaL Aug 2015 #40

You're right jberryhill Aug 2015 #41

But 3 years and 1 day is "more than" 3 years. How do you know he isn't more than 3 years older? pnwmom Aug 2015 #21

18-15=3 jberryhill Aug 2015 #18

She was 15 and he was 18. Which makes it 3 year difference. LisaL Aug 2015 #12

He is 19 now, a year later. She is 16 now, a year later. It seems likely that there is a 3 year age pnwmom Aug 2015 #15
