Is age an issue?
I have a boyfriend who I have been with for about a month and a half. He's only a year younger than me but since my birthday is at the start of the month (JAN 06) and his is at the end (NOV 24)it sounds like a bigger age gap (I'm 17 and he's still 15) I really love him and I know he cares about me. But theres this voice in the back of my head telling me its all wrong. Please help me I don't know what to do.
PS I rate really high <3

Dear Issue,
Don't let the age barrier hit you where it counts. And I know the voice echo telling your that its wrong but that is actually society talking. I have always had a thing for women older than me (my whole life) and when I started to date in my teen years my girlfriend got a lot of grief from her peers and guys her age, which im pretty sure you are already feeling from those around you. And never let people get in the way of your feelings you will lead yourself astray as well as your boyfriend, it hurts to be dumped because your love was not stronger that the voice of a persons friends. Follow your feelings and your instincts not just your what your friends say.

Hey i have the same thing going on with age with my boyfriend..Not that big of a gap i guess..
I`m 17 [As of Feb] My boyfriend 15 [16 in april]
Alot of people say i go with a little boy and stuff..
I`ve never let it bother me because i do love him && what people say isn`t going to interfer with our relationship..
Ignore what people say && ignore what the back of your mid says because there is nothinr wrong with it..AGe is just a number && if you really like/Love him then keep the relationship strong..
I`ve kept mine strong for almost 2 years..♥Dez

Age is just a number. You dont need to hear anybody opinions on the age gap. Its all about, the relationship (and everything that comes in a good relationship, like trust) and how mature you are. So dont worry, and i honestly dont think it makes a difference.

Dont worry about it. I'm 15 and my boyfreind is 17 my birthday is in August...so it's going to be a while for me. It really doesnt matter. If you love him enough you wont let a silly little thing like age get in the way. And also...just think well he has a later birthday than you...so what? he will be 16 by the end of the year and then it wont sound so bad.
but until then i think it would be a good idea to just not let age get in the way and have fun!

I wouldn't really worry about it- right now, it might seem like a bigger gap, but in the future (say, when you are both out of your parents houses, living your own lives) it won't seem like such a big difference. People get married to someone who is 10 years older than them sometimes! It really depends on how you look at it. If you're in high school and he's a year and a half younger than you, he's probably ine or two grades behind you, but say, when you're living your own lives, you won't have those sorts of barriers to make it uncomfortable. I hope I'm makeing sense, there.

Don't worry about it. You aren't doing anything wrong. Nobody really needs to know how old he is anyway. He is a year younger most of the time, and even if he weren't...who really cares about such things.
Do what makes you happy. :)
