I still liked him and stuff but we were just having fun. Yeah! You can date each other. I know a girl whose boyfriend is 15 and she's almost 17 so its not strange or anything. it's different because usually the guy is older because girls like me!!! like older guys because their more mature and serious about you. So, dont freak out its really no big. People might tease you about it but its not the freakest thing ever. I really liked the guy im talking about but he had other girls in mind. That doesnt mean your boyfriend has other girls in mind. haha. [ munchie007's advice column | Ask munchie007 A Question ]

WittyUsernameHere answered Sunday August 26 2007, 6:10 pm: By and large the trend is that guys are attracted to younger girls and girls are attracted to older guys.
Something about it in the extreme subconcious.
So, is it weird? In the sense of attraction like yours doesnt happen often it isnt ordinary.
AlyssaBT4T answered Sunday August 26 2007, 6:04 pm: I don't think so. As long as you like each other then you're fine. I had a friend who was in the 10th grade dating a 7th grader.
LOL_x0x answered Sunday August 26 2007, 4:49 pm: I completely agree with Jack (CuxMiBeckNow7)...
Age is just a number.
If you really care about the person, who cares how old they are? As long as they make you happy, and you want to be together, go for it!
And if people make fun of you/say something rude, just brush it off. Tell them to mind their own business or get lost.
But 2 years isn't really all that big of a difference, at least, not in my opninion. =]
It just might be hard because you're gonig in to high school, and he's still in junior high.
CollegeGirl answered Sunday August 26 2007, 4:23 pm: It may seem strange now due to the fact you are still in school. The age difference doesnt matter outside of school. Of course there will be critics but if you like him...Stay with him. You dont have to be like everyone else... [ CollegeGirl's advice column | Ask CollegeGirl A Question ]
Cux answered Sunday August 26 2007, 4:21 pm: Sorry if this sounds a little angered- this question is on here a lot. In fact, I'm adding it to my FAQ after this. Thank you for giving me the idea =D.
Anyway- age is just a number. Think about it. What are your parents ages? Chances are that they are about 2 or 3 years different. My mom is 45 and my dad is 46- they're close- but lets pretend my dad is a 9th grader- well my mom would be an 8th grader. Is it weird that they're married? No. So does the situation change because they're younger? No. And if someone or anyone thinks that- they are just a bubbling idiot and they deserve to be smacked across the face. Only kidding. =D. But seriously, it isn't weird. If both of you are fine with it- then who CARES what the heck other people think? I certainly don't care that you're dating a 7th grader- age is just a number, again, and its only odd if you're a 9th grader dating a 45 year old man. =D.
baachan answered Sunday August 26 2007, 4:20 pm: I know some people will think it's SO weird but to me it's not a big age difference. Most people pay attention to that he's in middle school and not in highschool and not the actual age but I know a couple ninth graders that were going out with 7th graders at one point, so if you like him then stay with him. It's not weird. [ baachan's advice column | Ask baachan A Question ]
