((that happened to one of my friends)) its sagetary rape. so be careful with you decision!

Its only a 4 year difference i mean its not really that bad, why dont you talk to your parents and let them meet this guy and then talk about it!

luckystarr8806 answered Monday August 23 2004, 10:03 pm: 16 and 20 is only a 4 year age difference. maybe your dad feels as if this 20 year old is taking advantage of you,like he wants to use you for sex or something. Your dad is probably thinking "Why would some 20 year old college guy want to go out with my 16 year old daughter who is in high school"...my advice to you would be to sit down and talk to your dad about this issue. Explain to him why you love this guy so much and maybe even arrange a time for them two to meet. If that doesn't work, I'd still go out with him, it shouldnt be up to your parents to decide who you should love. Good Luck! [ luckystarr8806's advice column | Ask luckystarr8806 A Question ]

Have your dad know him and get to know him a little better. If your dad knows him better and is able to trust him, maybe he will at least let u 2 hang out together at ur house. Then eventually he will probably let u go out on dates with this guy.
