OK time for a reality check. You will do what you want of course but you really need to know this.
If you were older, the age difference would mean nothing. Since you are young though, it matters a lot legally.
Once he turns 18, if he does anything sexual
at all with you, he is looking at the possibility
of being jailed for statutory rape. That is having
sex with someone who is not of age. You can
even be willing, but if parents find out..it means
big trouble.
The lowest age is 16. That would mean you are asking an 18 year old to wait at least 3 years
for sex. Is it possible to do that? Yes it is.
but with the mind set of todays youth, not real
likely.
So my advice would have to be...think about it
and discuss it with him and maybe even your
parents before you get involved.
Your heart will be broken big time if parents suddenly decide they don't want you dating an 18 year old. If something should happen and he got
thrown in jail, you would be heartbroken.
Here is the link to the age of consent chart.
It will tell you how old you have to be to have
a relationship without the guy doing jail time.

its not really a big difference but if ur uncomfortable with the age difference just tell him

That's not that big of a difference. My parents are actually 4 years apart. As long as you know he's being honest with you when he's confessing his love. Talk to him and make sure (I know this is terrible, I'm just trying to keep you safe) he isn't using you or anything. Also, run it by your parents. I know you might not want to, but it would be the best thing to do. But like I said, make sure he wants an actual relatioship and not a hook up. Make sure you have feelings for him, too. Follow your heart, and you'll be just fine =]
Good Luck!

Me and my boyfriend have an age difference. He is 17 about to be 18 in two months and I am still 14 but my birthday is in 7 days so basically I'm 15. I will tell you this from experience, it can be difficult at times because the older one tends to have more experience with relationships then the younger one. You'll have to prepare yourself for him knowing much more about relationships. I also have to bring up the point that he'll probably be more experienced with sexual things. Although if you two really do like each other it can be worked out, it will just need some time and I think it's best if you two talk. I know he says he doesn't care but what a 17 year considers a relationship and a 13 year considers a relationship are usually totally different points of views.

That is a big age difference and a weird age difference, but if you're okay with it and you like him then that's all that should matter. I wouldn't suggest a 13 year old going out with a 17 year old because you're both on different maturity levels and at different places in your life, but it's honestly up to you. If you do decide to go out with him just don't let him pressure you into doing anything you're not ready for.
