Your girlfriend not being allowed to go to the bar might not be the worst thing that's ever happened.

Seriously. That's a perk if anything.

If only TTM was a zombie in a band, this would be very similar to the movie Hard Rock Zombies.

Is the (possibly) hot neighbor mom close friends with your (definitely) hot mom?

I don't know. In terms of maturity and life experience 7 years between 35 and 42 years old isn't huge. On the other hand, 7 years between 18 and 25 years old is pretty big. Perhaps she's mature for her age, it might be awkward.

Anyway, you're young. Go for it. If it's a horrible experience please post about it on GRB so we can laugh at your misfortune.
I think I was kind of a selfish jerk up until my mid or maybe late twenties. I had this whole self pitying narrative about high school (woe is me, girls like jerks, etc...), and it wasn't until my 30s that I looked back at it honestly and realized how clueless and self involved I was.
this is remarkably similar to me. (i turn 31 in sept) and i feel like in this last year, in particular, i've realized my 20s were "wasted" (at least on a personal level)

I dated an 18 y/o when I was 25. It was fun for a while, actually we dated for about 8 months, but the age difference did eventually catch up to us. We got back together for a while when she was 21 but that didn't last very long. By then she was too old for me.

i dated a woman who was 11 years older than me. i dont know if age was the biggest factor, there were other reasons it didn't work. pretty sure she's now with an even younger guy (larger age gap) than with me.

was also involved with a gal who was maybe like 5-7 years younger than me. she was probably like 22 and i felt age was kind of a concern. didn't last much longer.

WOE IS ME
