Also, "conflict of interest" is rampant in graduate classes. I took a grad class as an undergrad once, where the problems were so hard, the TA couldn't do them! But the TA got the answer key from the prof in advance, so a lot of the students in the class who were friends of the TA got hook-ups. I'd, on the other hand, spend 20 hours to figure it out on my own Now that I'm a grad student, I kind of see their perspective though.

If he cares about you then who cares about grad or undergrad schools. Love will always bridge the gap. You should definitely go for it because if you don't; you will always wonder if you did. Most grad students teach so there's a potential conflict of interest, particularly if the undergrad is in the same department. When I was a grad student, there were definitely undergrads I'd have liked to date.

The problem was that the only place I really met undergrads was in my classes which I TAed or lectured. Because of the risks of the appearance of abusing a position of power I could never ask any of them out. If one would have asked ME out, I'd have done it right after grades were in.

Unfortunately, girls don't tend to ask guys out in general, so that never happened.

Bottom line, there's a LOT of risk for a grad student to ask out one of his students, but no real downside if an undergrad asks out a grad student. I'm a 28 year old male graduate student and am far more interested in dating undergrads then women my own age. Maturity has more to do with the individual then their physical age. I know 30 somethings that are less mature than some 18 year olds.

For me personally I see myself more attracted to younger women for a number of reasons: For a guy I think that's okay, and I want to date quite a few women before settling down so I know I've explored my options before committing long term. Home […] Forums Life and style Relationships.

One girl in my lab class and a PhD student who supervised one of our second-year labs went out for about a year, and I've heard of similar pairings in other departments from friends. There's no stigma attached to it, as far as I'm aware. People just like to gossip.

I met my girlfriend as a grad student. Just like most things in life, grad school is what you make out of it. Whatever you want to do, you have to make time for it. If you prioritize being social -- make time to get out and meet people, spend time with friends, etc. Provided you find an understanding partner, at least. Me, I prioritize alone time over over social time, and I didn't have a preexisting relationship, so dating was a nonstarter for me. But I had classmates who started new relationships and ultimately got married during grad school.

Also volunteering on weekends, playing in a professional orchestra It's all in your priorities. I didn't date my first year because I didn't think I'd have time. I started using dating apps at the beginning of the second year and met this amazing man. We've been together for about a year. He's very understanding and that's what makes our relationship work so well. I experienced the exact same thing - and fingers crossed it all continues for both of us.

Good luck to you both! We also just started LDR a few months ago.

Can't speak from personal experience, but by my estimates, dating is going to be tougher than usual. I'd say purely subjectively that people that cope best with grad school are those who have a supportive partner that lives with them, or if they are comfortable on their own. The only bad part is that a lot of schools are in small college towns where the average age range is I personally prefer just working and hate the whole dating scene. I love being single, thus I don't put a ton of work into finding someone to date.

I will say that when I do try to date, it is super hard. If you are female, a lot of men cannot handle that. You will also notice that your education changes how you process most things in life. You tend to become much more logical, thoughtful, and purposful So, it becomes harder to partner up. Your time requirements are different than most other fields as well. In short, it is what you make of it but it does become harder. I am perfectly happy being single and have been single for the last six years.
