Question Posted Saturday February 19 2005, 3:06 pm
okay my motto is that I'm young wnough not to know and old enough not to give a ....(fill in the blank)
and u see.. with me that pretty much means that I'm leagle... even though I'm 16
So.. is it bad to have a crush on someone who is like 7 years older than me? And what if it possibly happened 2 turn out to be something in like a year or so... is this wrong?
TheTeenGirl answered Saturday February 19 2005, 4:15 pm: Its ok, as long as it stays a crush, but nothing more. You're a minor, and that guy is like 23, theres no way you can need that. You need to stay away from him, because if you ended with that guy, your motto would change completely, you'd have sex before reaching 17, because older guys move faster. You can't have a good relationship with guys that old, sorry, its just horrible and nasty. That guy is a big fat pervert if he wants you. So you won't be the same 16 year old girl if you dated that guy.

Make sure this guy likes you too and that you trust him. Since he is older than you, he's probably been through a lot so you don't know what to expect in a relationship with him. If you love him and if he loves you, go for it and ask him out. It's not wrong to start a relationship with him in a few years. Just make sure you know what you are doing and that you love this guy. Hope I helped :)

MummuM answered Saturday February 19 2005, 3:32 pm: It's not wrong, not at all. You can't help who you like, nor can you stop just because of age. If you like this guy, you like him. There's not much you can do. If anything does possibly happen in a year or so, make sure you can trust him. Make sure that he loves and respects you and isn't in it to get some skin and such. If he isn't and all goes well, that's great! Even if he's 7 years older, he could be the best guy in the world. So when you are ready, go for it.
