There is this guy I like and he likes me too. The problem: My parents are very strict and dont want me to see him (im 16 and he is 21). Do I continue with the relationship or back away?

Hello180 answered Sunday July 25 2004, 11:47 pm: thats a pretty big age gap. Do you think he could really be interested in more than sex? i mean your 75% of his age, its like a 16 and a 12 year old. Kind of creepy. [ Hello180's advice column | Ask Hello180 A Question ]
BewareOfCat2 answered Sunday July 25 2004, 11:46 pm: I don't think your parents are being very strict. He is 5 years older than you and probably much more experianced and such. He probably wants more sexually from you than you are willing to give. I think sometimes our parents are right...it would be wise to listen to them. Hope I helped!

Sweetie2oo4 answered Sunday July 25 2004, 11:40 pm: i personally think you should keep it on a friends level..not only because its against your parents wishes, but also because its ilegal..if you really care about him, then you don't want to see him in trouble..he could go to jail for dating a minor. trust me it happened to my friend. she was 17 and he was 20, her parents didn't like them going out and some teachers at school found out too and disagreed with it..one thing led to another & the next thing they knew he was being arrested..hope i helped..its just my opinion dont take it the wrong way..=)
xO`lexi..plz rate
Sorry i re-read the question and saw that you said the legal age is 16..ok that may be so, but think abut it, you said you don't plan on having sex with him..well he's 21 right? don't you think he wants to be sexually involved..is it fair to him?..just some things to think about..like i said only my opinion, im here to help and thats all..if you wanna talk leave it in the inbox=) [ Sweetie2oo4's advice column | Ask Sweetie2oo4 A Question ]
xobabyxthang answered Sunday July 25 2004, 10:22 pm: I think it all depends on how strong you're feelings are..if you are totally in love with him you should stay seeing him but if you're parents are really that concerned u shud talk to them about you're relationship with him and see if they'd approve after they kno more about it [ xobabyxthang's advice column | Ask xobabyxthang A Question ]
Sara8047 answered Sunday July 25 2004, 10:14 pm: Maybe try n tell your parents that your inlove..Explain to them that you love him as much as they love each other..age shouldnt matter! i mean most likely if u get married the age will be fine and nothing will be wrong with it.. talk to him and ask him if he truely loves you and wants to be with you forever and if he ses he does and u have trust in him then u kno u were meant to be and ur parents would unedrstand...if u really want to put it to ur parents this way: Mom, Dad imagine if your parents tried to make sure u guyz cant be together! i mean really! let people be with the people they love!!

Zero answered Sunday July 25 2004, 9:41 pm: I was in this position for 9 months. I was bieng the "rebel" and stayed with him. It's like while I was with him all I knew was that I couldn't see him and eventually it would end. So I just stayed with him until the end...which I shouldn't have b/c I got hurt. If your parents don't like him then your screwed...but I don't know your exact position though. Good luck! [ Zero's advice column | Ask Zero A Question ]

Floridagirl1821 answered Sunday July 25 2004, 9:34 pm: Hmm........he could get you to drink which is legal! I'm on your parents side!

charmed-cherry21 answered Sunday July 25 2004, 9:04 pm: I would end it because he is too old for you right now I would wait til I was 18 to do that
KoTaKiTtAy44 answered Sunday July 25 2004, 9:00 pm: maybe you could ask your parents if he could come over to dinner or something so that they could get to know him and have him show how much of a great guy he is!! and then maybe they will loosen up a little! *hope i helped* <3/Dakota
xxjools27xx answered Sunday July 25 2004, 8:59 pm: you should do what you feel is right. if you want to continue dating him, then you should do that. if you want to do what your parents said then break up with him. its all up to how you feel about him. if you really want to continue the realtionship, just talk to your parents and see why exactly they dont approve and tell them it shouldn't matter about the age, it should only matter about the feeling. hope i helped!! good luck!
**please rate me!**
Mercy_x_Me answered Sunday July 25 2004, 8:59 pm: BACK AWAY. 16 compared to 21 is unhealthy!! Hes why too old for you and your parents should come first in this scenario.. listen to me and it will be to your advantage...
please.. believe me.. ive seen this way too many times older guys take advantage
