There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. I'm 15 and my boyfriend is 17. My mom was so dead set against me dating him for the longest time, but when I finally convinced her to meet him, she loved him as much as I did. Try begging her to meet him. Ask him over for dinner before you go on a car date. That may ease her worries.

i see absolutley nothing wrong with that.so what hes 2 years older.you know its actually better that hes older than you cuz the older he is the more mature he is and the more hell be able to treat you better

the best way to solve this is to explain to her that it is nothing like a relationship going. on so just explain you are turning 17 you are some what grown and hes only 2 years away hes not trying to hit on you. Its just a friendly freinds out.so I hope that it works out for you.

Parents are so odd. I dont kno how to answer this question because Im in the same situation only he is 19 and im fifteen. the best thing you can do I guess is just try talking to your mom tell her that he is only 2 years older and she can meet him. Maybe have him come over your house to hang out someday so she can feel comfterble with him and then go out to the movies? thats all i kno but
if you want to talk just give me yur IM or email or something and ill try to help more!

The age differences really isnt that much but parents are just overpertective they are just worried about you thats all just ask them to give you a chance and try to explain and show them how responsible you are and that you arnt going to go out and just have sex because they might think hes going to use you. Let them meet him first and maybe they will let you go out to the movies.

The age difference doesn't seem to be a problem but parents are different when it comes to their kids dating. She just doesn't want anything bad to happent to you but you should be able to make some of the decisions for you. Talk to her again and see if she would change her mind. She should meet him though.

Hi, I don't see a problem in the age gap. In fact I don't see a problem at all. You are old enough really to decide who you want to go out with or date and perhaps you could ask your step mother why she thinks it isn't a good idea. There is deffinately no problem in the age gap, and you are both old enough to make these decisions for yourself. Daniel.

Well, I personally see no problem with 2 years age difference. Your stepmom is probably bothered by the fact that's he's legal and you're still underage, and you're still in high school while he's probably in college. She probably thinks that he might be out just to use you since you're a younger girl, and may wonder why he doesn't go for a girl his age. Of course this isn't the case (I hope!), but this is probably how she thinks. All you can really do is explain to her that you've known him quite a long time and he's always been respectful to you. Explain to her that it's only one date and it's not a huge age gap. Show her that you're mature and understand her point of view by saying that you understand that he's no longer in school and you're still underage, but you've been friends a while and have a lot in common and that you don't feel there's much of an age gap between you.
Tell her that she can even drop you off if she likes rather than him driving you. Maybe she'd feel better if you let her do that. Also, you could make it clear that he's offered to meet her and is really keen on meeting her. That'll make him look good. ;)
Be calm about it when talking to her, and don't get mad. I'm sure she'll be impressed by your maturity in the situation. Good luck.

Dear Friend,
I agree with you. A two-year age gap shouldn't be a problem, especially when girls mature faster than boys.
Obviously your stepmom is a little overprotective - maybe you should have a chat to her about that. If you handle the situation in a calm, grown-up way, it'll be a lot harder for her to treat you like anything less.
Tell her a bit about your friend, and introduce them before you two go out.
Love,
Ainsely.
