<p>Indian actress Freida Pinto says boyfriend Dev Patel is the only person who understands her.<br /><br /></p>.<p>The 27-year-old, who has been dating her 'Slumdog Millionaire' co-star since 2007, thinks because they have shared so much together he is the only person who knows how to uplift her mood, reported Contactmusic.<br /><br />"We have shared so much together; and he is always the person I go to first. When you've shared something like that, you have no-one else to go to but that person who completely understands.<br /><br />"So if I have a complete downer, he knows exactly how to uplift my moods and I can do the same for him. It actually helps a lot having gone through the same experience, when that experience is so unique," Pinto said.<br /><br />The actress is six years older than Patel but insists he is the mature person in their relationship.<br /><br />"Some people don't actually know that he's six years younger than I am! He's too mature. I keep telling him, 'Stop being an old man!' He's just an old soul.<br /><br />"The way he speaks and thinks - he's so philosophical and deep. I'm like, 'You don't sound like a 21-year-old to me!' At least that's not how I was when I was 21," Pinto said.</p>
