YAGT: Age Difference

[moonshinemadness]

Ive met a girl i really like and we get on really well. Problem is shes 15 and im 17. Do you guys this age difference is ok or is the gap to great?

Thanks

 

[nageov3t]

are you prepared for everyone you know to make fun of you?

 

[Ketteringo]

Short term? No problem. Long term? You change a lot (physically and mentally) from 14-20 so you will most likely have problems later.

I vote for have fun now, and dont really think too hard about the future (relationship wise). Also, you going to college will be a big issue you would have to deal with. If you are emotionally shallow, 'hit it and quit it'. If you are mature, then you can develop a deep and meaningful relationship, get some nookie, and then go to college

 

[moonshinemadness]

Loki, im used to that already,

Thanks ketteringo so you dont think that people are going to view it in a bad light?

You're both in high school, it's fine. Don't worry about it.

Once you graduate, then people will make fun of you (if you're still seeing her) for dating a high school girl, though.

I met my girlfriend when she was 16. I was 20.

We've been together 3 years now.

We were technically against the law for like 6 months after she moved down here.. we were barely legal in Washington.. (3.8 years difference; the law there is 4 or more lol, here it's under 18 period)

i'm 21 and my gf was in the last few weeks of 17 when we started dating. She's 18 now and i'm still 21. I can honestly say that dating younger girls SUCKS!!

15-17 is no problem man. go for it. my friend the captain of the football team last year dated a soph. no biggie.

 

[psydancerqt]

I disagree.

Just keep it in your pants til she's 18 and you'll be OK.

JAIL BAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think it's too much of a problem, as long as it doesn't get too physical. And btw, don't expect to marry her or anything...just have fun.

 

[Fingolfin269]

I think I did this in high school. Hell, a lot of them may have been 14... I don't really remember.

my ex boyfriend that i was with for 2 years is 20 now and i am 17... hes 2 1/2 years older. right now my boyfriend is 19. i dont think its a big deal at all.

one of my friends that was interested in me is 22.. that is a big deal.

Like, oh my gosh, you are so popular! Did you hear what Susie said happened to Becky's sister at the mall on Tuesday with Lisa's dad's girlfriend's son, it was like, all over, everyone knew.

Anyways, do a headstand in a swimsuit.

LMFAO!

 

[Bullhonkie]

Man that's absolutely nothing. I'm 22 and my girlfriend is nearly twice my age.

mrs robinson?

Anyhow, take your chance and bang a 15 yr old... it's your last chance (to do it and not be a sicko).

 

[Nebor]

I think laws, and perhaps customs, are vastly different in the UK where the OP is from....

Here is 'the rule' around here:

1. If your in High School, anyone else in high school is ok. Likewise for college.
2. If you are in college, anyone in high school is OFF LIMITS, even if they are older then you, unless they were your gf/bf before you started college.

In general though, we really don't have enough information. I've met some 15-16 year olds that I could swear were college freshman or sophomores, and I've met some 22-23 year olds that I would swear were still in HS. Maturity (both physically an emotionally) matters a lot here, some people just grow up faster or slower then others.
