Age difference

---

does age matter that much.Im 17, shes 14, liked her for a while, havnt asked her out because of the age difference.Any opinions?

Nah, its all cool.

Generally girls are considered to mature faster and be about a year ahead of boys, so effectively there's a two-year gap.In your twenties, the gap will be nothing. At this stage, however, the gap will be more serious - you'll be at very different levels with school, and perhaps also maturity of interests. There may also be legal issues if sex is involved. These things should be considered carefully.

If you really like her, I wouldn't let the age difference stop you. Though, I would seriously consider the possible legal ramifications that could take place in this situation. It also somewhat goes against the social norm, and you may get some flak from people for dating a girl "that much younger". Though, if you were 21 and she were 18 it probably wouldn't be an issue.

yes i do know the family quite well actually.

Depending on the state, she's sexually off limits now.

I'm 16, going out with a 13 year old, but my birthdays just been, and she's nearly 14.How many school years age gap is there?

user13 is asking about a relationship, and it is possible to go out together without having sex.
