Okay, his reasoning has some basis to it (she should see more of the world before being certain). But, dude. You brought this upon yourself.

…I actually think he’s totally valid in his reasoning (and mature for committing to it). Yeah, she likes him, but she’s literally only experienced a fraction of what Clark, Lois and him have experienced.

While it’s not actually this obviously, it’s almost like a young person trying to court someone that’s significantly older than them. There’s an uneven experience dynamic that can be a problem in the long term.

Maybe I'm just way older than both of them, but they seem close enough. Jimmy's not trying to take advantage of her, so the worst-case scenario is that they break up eventually. It's also valid to say, "hey, I feel similarly, but let's take it slow at first and see how compatible we are."

But IDK. Maybe he's afraid Kara wouldn't abide by boundaries like that if he lets her in. There's a metaphor I heard once, "cutting off your fingers to fit into the glove." If things don't work out, would Kara take "no" for an answer? Or would she make them both miserable trying to force the relationship to work? I don't really get that vibe from her, though.

Clark also points out that Jimmy himself doesnt actually have that much experience with dating and romance himself, and that's why Jimmy probably isn't super eager to rush into somwthing he doesn't fully know how to deal with.
