Not really. I would say the age gap is too big. A 30 year old men is mature and a 19 year old girl mostly is not that mature as a 30 year old men.
It is possible, but in that case you should understand that having a chat about stuff which 30 year old adults talk about, isn't possible. And you should understand that she can behave like you are her dad (asking advice and so on)
You should think about this all before you date someone who is younger.
A little strange in a good way

She's probably going to talk about things she remembers from early childhood, and you'll think, I was legal driving/drinking/whatever age when that happened and feel weird. Or you'll tell stories about something you did when you were 18, and she'll think, Wow, I was... 7..., and it'll be awkward. Or you'll say something about childhood, she'll stare at you blankly, and ask what life was like before the Internet.
So, legally, sure you can date, and it may be tempting, but at some point you're probably going to realize how very different your experiences are.

Heck No.
Maturity level at that age versus yours is not one that you can tread lightly. First of all... are you prepared for all the emotional breakdowns and constant whining about how you don't spend enough time with her? or give her enough attention? Plus, I'm assuming she's still in school... which means plenty of time for her to want to spend with you - but are you able to provide her all the time she wants ? at HER convenience?
Short term, yeah dude... it'd be fun. But the long term ramifications just aren't worth it. Plus its definitely pedophilia.
Also, ask yourself : If you had a daughter who was 19... would you let her date someone who's 30? Seriously, think about it.

It's legal, but what's the appeal other than someone young to have sex with? You're in different places in Life, probably have different interests, different life experiences, different education levels, different maturity levels, etc.
Are you interested in her seriously or just flattered some young woman finds you appealing? The guys around your age and up that I've known, that went out with much younger women, told me flat out it was almost always for sex and arm candy. Otherwise, they had no interest in those chicks at all.

I think that the age diferance is kinda weird!! I think that it would be ok if she was like atleast 24!! But she is only 19 so that's weird

Chances are where you live its legal.
Assuming you are both single and consenting no one can tell you any different. If you're likely to feel that other people judging you outweighs the benefits of dating her then don't.

i'm probably gonna be getting some thumbs down, but... i think it depends on how MATURE she is (i know a couple that's 63/50 now, and they're like perfect for each other, and they he met her at a really young age, they took it really slowly, turned out to be best friends, and some time later they where together..)

Well, the law states that she can date who ever she wants. Hugh Hefner is 80 and his chicks are like 20 so as long as she isn't under 18 I guess you can do whatever you want. If I saw you two on the street I"d probably be like: "Wtf is that chick doin with her dad" but if you're into younger chicks (LEGAL younger chicks) then do what you please. Just........no public kissing and crap.

In this case the law overrides morality..18 is legal....19 is very legal!....show that little girl what love is.

Yes, it's fine. And no, that doesn't make you a pedophile.
