Question Posted Friday March 4 2005, 10:34 pm

At a recent school dance, they had 2 grades there: 7th and 8th, and im in 8th grade. My friend billy was there (7th grade) and me and my friends were hanging out with him and his freidns who are also in 7th grade, a year younger than us. I was flirting like a tonnn with this one kid, steven, and it was really fun and he was being a flirt back..he's very nice and sweet, has adorable green eyes and is very cute. he's got a cute voice and cute hair and is my height too, which is a plus. Anyway, my boyfriend and i of 1 1/2 months just broke up and it was really hard for me. But at the dance, flirting and hanging out with steven made me realize how much fun that was you know? so like we became friends at the dance and then my friends and his friends were like hey i see a connection here! and they kept saying stuff so he asked me to dance and we danced together and talked and like...i really liked it. I felt comfortable with him, in his arms, and i just wanted to kiss him. It was really cool, but hes in 7th grade and im in 8th. People think it's weird to go out with a 7th grader when youre in 8th grade, and if you do, everybody talks about you and it alters your reputation. I don't really want people to think anything bad about me or get a bad rep from going out with a 7th grader. He's very cute and sweet and i think i really like him...but he's not "popular" but i cant see why..i'm confused on what to do..could someone please give me some advice? stay just friends or date him? Thanks!! and sorry it's so long!!

Hi Sweetie,
Two things to talk about. One: Personally I think its weird... I mean, in 8th grade I would NOT had gone out with a 7th grader. Of course, maybe I just never met the right 7th grader, l.o.l. I thought my friend (who IS the popular type) did. So popuar people DO date 1yr younger. Freshman year I dated a 10th grader (I'm not a hypocrite... I swear!) Between 7th and 9th grade I thought about dating older/younger and there' nothing wrong with it if you really like the person. If I met the right person... maybe I would. Younger no more than a grade. Maybe he's not even a year younger than you... maybe just months. Oh, an a lot of 10th graders date 9th graders. Anyways, in middle school (7th and 8th grade) it is pretty weird and people often talk about you. You have to decide what is more important to you... what you are willing to give up... If you really like the guy then go for it. It will only be weird for everyone else at first. Then they'll be used to it.
Thing number 2: OK, forget about grades. How long has it been sine your break up? You may need more time to heal. Maybe the only reason you like this other boy is... well what if he's just your reboud. Im not saying he is, I just want you to think about it. If you rush into a relationsip or get in one for the wrong reasons things will turn out bad. Make sure you don't like that guy for the wrong reasons. I mean... yeah he's cool and nice and flirting with him is fun... if it would had been another cool/fun/nice guy, would you had fallen for him too? Just... think about it.
Well I hope it all turns out in your favor. Take care! ~Blessed Be...

Well it shouldn't really matter whether or not this guy Steven is popular or not. And if you think that you like this guy maybe you should give him a chance. Who cares what the people think its your choice. And if you like this guy and you think that he likes you to maybe you should just ask him out. Hope I helped a bit :P

If you like him, then what other peopl ethink shouldn't be a problem, if your so worried about what other people will think your gonna miss out on alot of good things that will come your way, such as, steven maybe, and if everyone talks about you, they're shallow and need to saty out of your "love" life. And I don't see why they would think bad of you if you wnet out with a 7th grader, what do they have cooties or something? I mean come on...if you like him, which it sounds like you do, go for it, and let other people think what they want.

Rate maybe?
Hope I helped-

So what? That shouldn't matter at all. Anyway, when you get into high school there will be juniors with sophomores and seniors dating freshmen, it doesn't really matter. Don't worry about what they think.

Aah yes, anoterh idiot "popularity" contest question. Why do you tards post these stupid questions anyways? Well, popularity isnt everything. Someone to make fun of you for going out with someone a grade lower is an idiot. Also a side note, you're an idiot to think popularity is a big factor in life. I bet you feel happy bout your rep though. Enjoy, when you get older and ahve a job tell your boss "i was popular in high school, can i get a promotion"? And see what he says. Chances are it wont matter. Your dumb.

Omg i think you should TOTALLY go out with him..So what if people think its stupid if you two are going out..Thats pritty imature on there part...Theres nuthing wrong with going out with a 7th grader if your an 8th grader...My friend went out with her boyfriend for 1 year or longer and she was in 8th grade and he was in 7th...Love should come before peoples opinions. If you really like/love someone it shouldnt matter what others think! So i think you should go for it!!

You shouldn't care what other people think of you. If you like him, then you like him. End of story. If your reputation is that big of a deal to you, then you are shallow and shouldn't waste his time. Go out with him if you like him. Your real friends won't care how old he is as long as you like him.

If you want to date him, go for it! Anyone who puts you down is just jealous because he sounds like a really great guy. You're only a year apart. The age difference isn't a big deal at all. Don't let other people keep you from going out with him! If they give you a hard time, ignore them and they'll stop. Usually people get bored annoying others when it doesn't look like they care. I really hope you make the right choice here. Good luck with him =)
