If you were 16

At 16? Oh, David, most definately. He was a smooth talker, attractive, and very exciting. In fact, at 16, I dated an older 'man' (late-college age), with my parent's permission. Now, (much older, LOL), I would choose Graham. Graham seemed to actually exhibit some of the 'class' and 'knowledge' that David tried so desperately to exhude. He also, to some extent, seemed to have a basic level of morality.

This movie described a lot of what happened to me.
16 last year, dated someone 8 years older.
i'd go with David, but if anything, I think it just depends on the person.

Well, I am 15 right now and I would definitely go with Graham! He seemed so nice, I'm surprised she didn't like him at all.

i would personally be more interested in a person like me- (like her)- young, good looking, intelligent and honest.

we don't know much about her school boyfriend... maybe he was boring and david was so much fun (was it?) but to me the attraction she saw in david was basically the fact that he had MONEY.

that's a bit what the film is about... why not earn your own money if you are an intelligent woman? and go for a great guy who won't mess your life up?

David! I had a very similar story at 17 and yeah...I went with David. Around 17/18 I was realizing how immature the boys my age were, and how much more sophisticated older men are.


I hear the drizzle of the rain. Like a memory it falls.

I liked boys like Graham. David's atractiveness is not really muy cup of tea no matter how much I like older men since my 20s. The guy at the ending was also cute. I believe that tastes are more complex than choosing between old and new.
