There's nothing wrong with you liking a 5th grader. It's natural, you just happens to be attracted to a guy 3 years younger. In comparison, I'm a 12th grader and the girl I'm "seeing" is also an 8th grader. Noone really cares it from what I know. So, I suggest that you can just continue with your feelings toward this boy. Who knows? It can be something unique in the future...

It's not wrong to like him more. If you enjoy hanging out with him and he enjoys being with you then I don't see anything wrong with it. In my highschool seniors go out with freshmen all the time that's a 4 yaer difference as well. Some people have problems with it but most people don't care or they just get over it. If you really like him and he really likes then don't worry about the age difference. After all age is only a number. However if you decide to go for it you should know that some people will probably have a problem with it. But that's their problem you have a right to be with who you want to be with it's you choice not theirs. If you two really like each other then don't worry about what anyone else thinks go for it.

Good luck and I hope I helped

ok, i think that age doesn't matter so much say, when you're older, but right now, that may be too big of an age difference b/c you are probably on two different maturity levels... i guess it just depends how on how mature you think he may be and whether or not you think that is on your level... i guess the ultimate decision is yours

mystical_breeze answered Sunday May 22 2005, 3:59 pm:
My gosh, there isn't a big problem there. Some people think it's so gross, but it's not really. It depends on how mature this kid is, and how mature you will be when you're around him. I'm a fifth grader and REALLY mature for my age. I mean, I'm 5'3 and hang out with fourteen year olds. I suggest you do what is right to you, and if you like him, continue liking him. Eleven can be an immature age, or not. I chose to act mature at my age, and if he would like to act that way, I believe that's fine if you like him. Well, good luck!

please rate and leave feedback.

you might not see it right away; but the age difference will have an affect. you are nearly a teenager & he is still a *kid with a lot of puberty to go through.. i think the best thing for you guys is to remain friends. However.. maybe things might come up in highschool or what not. but i think you should stick to your age group :-D hope i helped.

*rate me please.

Well.. I don't think that having a thRee oR fouR yeaR age diffeRence is a big pRoblem whatsoeveR. HOWEVER... I think foR RIGHT *NOW*... that age diffeRence is too big, because it sets you both at completely diffeRent matuRity levels...

TheTeenGirl answered Sunday May 22 2005, 2:51 am:
I think you need to leave the boy alone. You're about 14 or 15, and hes about 11 or 12. You need to find someone around your age. Hes a boy and you're a young lady, theres a difference that will effect the relationship. Everyone has a crush, so you aren't wrong for crushing on him, crushes can't be controlled, however, dating the crush or not is all in your control. Hes too young for you right now. So, I say its time to move on and find someone closer in your age.

You are older then him even tho its just kind of odd but dont worry about it. Keep crushing on him and its fine. You really dont have to worry about anything! Who cares what people think! &hearts;

HyperactiveMiss answered Saturday May 21 2005, 11:17 pm:
It's definitely not wrong to like him. By all means, go ahead and keep on crushing on him.

There are obstacles you'll have to overcome though.

I'm not trying to bring you down or whatever. I'm only giving you things to think about so you can decide on your own.

He's a fifth grader. He's probably into girls now, but just be aware he might not be very mature. Boys your own age are immature enough already. Imagine how a boy three years younger is!

If you ever ask him out, be ready for the teasing. If you plan to go out with him and hide the fact from everyone else, it's best not to go out with him at all. Why? Because you shouldn't feel ashamed and embarrassed of the person you have strong feeligns for.

If you truely like the guy, go for it. Ignore what anyone else says. If you decide not go to out with him, that's alright. Once you move from "the middle of nowhere" you'll find that there are lots of other charming dudes out there. Dating is about trying things out, finding out what you want, and bonding with someone. If things don't work out, you move on and life life. Good luck!

loomber answered Saturday May 21 2005, 10:57 pm:
theres nothing wrong with liking him but i think you should wait maybe a year or so before you start dating and stuff like that because he would probably feel weird about dating cuz hes only in 5th grade but if u still like him in maybe two years wen hes hit puberty, i say go for it!

I think you sould go for it it's fine! I think if you really care about him you should tell him because you never know he might feel the same way about you or might start feeling the same way about you! Just think about it when your older people go out even get married and there many years apart i don't think a couple of grades would hurt. So go for it and see what happens. GOODLUCK!!!!

Hunni, not at all! don't be ashamed of who you have feelings for. If you care about him, and you think you too could be good for eachother, then the next step is letting him know. Become a little more flirty around him and mabye he feels the same way! think about your parents, are they close in age? a lot of people arent, and especially if you go to a school like that, so go for it! don't be ashamed, its not bad at all , good luck hope i helped
