Yesterday, I went to this street festival where their was live music in Chicago. I was dancing and talking to this cute guy who looked 16-17. Later on we started grinding and just having fun. When I had to leave I kissed him and he gave me his number. We were texting and I decided to ask him his age. Turns out he's 21! So I lied and said I was 17 (I've been told I could pass for 17). He says he wants to see me again but I don't think that will happen since I was just in the city for the weekend. It was all in good fun but I feel kind of weird now.. I know we won't be like a thing and probably won't ever see each other again.
I know it's illegal since I'm a minor but what would you do if you were in my situation. I honestly though he was 16 or 17 but found out too late he was 21.

In a couple of months you will have forgotten about him. i would suggest deleting him from your contacts just to make sure, since you are a minor. and if he starts stalking you make sure you tell someone (not saying it will but if it does). :)

Anyways, delete his number & don't contact him again. You don't live there anyways, and you won't see him again so it shouldn't be a big deal.
MissYMelisS answered Monday June 7 2010, 6:20 pm: Dont worry about it. You dont live there. Just tell him that you wont be able to see him, that you dont live anywhere near there. Its not that big of a deal. I think the real question is why were you kissing random boys? haha, just next time be a little more careful when you are in a situation like that. Ask there age first?

Guys are stupid. We hear a girl say 17, we don't doubt it, we just accept it, because we want it to be true.
Tell him how old you really are, and that you're sorry you lied. That'll back him off, as he needs to. You could literally ruin his life without anything untoward even happening. The mere appearance is often enough to screw someone's life up completely.
OhMyLucyDarling answered Monday June 7 2010, 12:19 pm: If you just kissed him and didn't know his real age, Then don't worry about it.
However, If he wants to see you again....IGNORE HIM. For a 21 year old guy to be involved with a 14 year old is not only asking for some serious jail time but stop and think about it for a minute. What in gods right mind is he thinking? HE IS 7 YEARS OLDER. If you two were to get together again god only knows what it could lead too. Ignore him, This guy is weird and it is not normal for an adult to be trying to get with someone your age. It's WRONG [ OhMyLucyDarling's advice column | Ask OhMyLucyDarling A Question ]
rainbowcherrie answered Monday June 7 2010, 11:06 am: I wouldn't worry about it, especially if you don't think you're going to see him again. If he contacts you again, either ignore him or tell him you're not interested. That way you don't have to admit you lied and he won't feel bad about kissing a minor.
We all do stupid things and as you didn't know how old he was, it was an honest mistake. As far as I know, just kissing someone isn't illegal and it's highly unlikely either of you would get into trouble. Obviously if anything more had happened it'd be another story.
