Can I still try my luck with girls in my grad school if I graduate soon?

So I recently turned 24 and currently studying MBA but I am in 2nd year and in my final semester which is dissertation based. So I am still in touch with my MBA peers and even with my juniors. Most of the girls in my MBA who are my juniors in 1st year are within 21-24 age range. So I will be starting with my internship soon so can I still keep in touch with them on Instagram and even ask out one? I will fully be done with my MBA after 5-6 months and after that I will be working full time. I am also getting to know a girl who is 21-22 who will be joining out University for the new MBA batch for 2025-27 but by then I will be done with it. Is it bad or unusual? For now I will be an intern in my final semester of my MBA.

I mean age is a number and you are going to get as many opinions on dating above or below your perceived age bracket as there are people willing to talk to you on it. That said I'd say you as someone in their early to mid 20s are fine to date other people in there early to mid 20s. 2/3 years above or below at your age doesn't seem particularly off

I am not talking about the age gap tho as we are all in our 20s and within 2-3 years of my age and I am not worried about 21 and 24 age gap really. I am asking about the difference in life stage like I am starting an internship as it's part of my final semester in my grad school and in 6 months I will graduate and start working full time whereas my juniors in grad school will graduate next year so they will still be in school when I start working

So your concern is a potential partners inability to relate to what ylu sre experiencing and just having mismatched expectations???

Sadly that's called dating, you just have to get to know someone and if you like each other communicate to the best of your ability and hope they are able to match that snd it works out.
