17/F senior.
Okay so I'm a little worried bout the age diference between me and this guy I like who I'm going with to prom too. Here's the thing: he's a freshman and I'm a senior. We have the same birthday week so when he finally turns 15 I'll be 18. In other words right now he is 14 while I'm 17. Although he is extremely mature for his age like already has a job ad everything. He definately does not act like a freshman. I'm bout to graduate and he's only gonne be a sophmore. So if we dated this summer I would be a freshman in college dating a sophmore in high school. Another thing is if we date I know it will be endless crap from my guy friends for dating such a young guy even if it's only 2 years because the whole college to high school thing makes it sound bad. Basically I'm wondering your oppinions on this. Is he too young? Or should I ignore what everyone will say and go for it anyways? Thanks!!

In this age in time, age, sex, status, and sometimes religion does not matter at all.. People have become open to facts instead of traditions. Go on a date with him and maybe.. he'll turn out to be the guy ur looking for.. If everybody like you, thought of age differences then this world would not been believers of real love.. my parents have a 7-year gap and they've been married for 50 years.. So give the fellow a chance.. :) [ yssa412's advice column | Ask yssa412 A Question ]

But honestly, I don't see anything wrong with having a little summer fling with him before college. As for when you get to college, you probably won't want a boyfriend back home holding you back. Especially depending on how far away from home youll go to college, it would be difficult to do, no matter the age difference. Most of my friends who were dating people younger than them have broken up already (I'm a freshman in college now). Your priorities change when you get to college. You aren't going to want to constantly make trips home. Plus you'll be meeting all kinds of new people, including new boys! College boys!
