Theres nothing to worry about this dear, age differnce in the real world does'nt pay much importance but yea that does'nt mean you have to go in wid this dude. you guys are still young keep yourselves in a relationship where you'll get to hang out and spend more time get to know each other your likes dislikes everything.... Im not saying to leave him but yea don't push on with things toofast. As for people don't give an F** about what they think cause this is your life and you gota live it. So take a chill pill for now and continue dating da dude to know him better if in a couple of say 8 years or what ever you'll find appropriate you guys are still going strong and your sure about him then go for him. Understanding is the most important aspect in a relationship.

Cheers!!

YouWish agony auntYou're 16-17, which means your guy is 12-13??

How would you like a big fat STATUTORY RAPE felony on your criminal record? That's what would happen if you're dating him when you're 18.

Have about 5 years of patience for this guy, and if you still like him in 2015, and you're not married by then, then think about it. But NO WAY now.

I think at your age it is too much. The last thing you want is for something to go too far, and you end up in prison. Just now, let this guy go.

chigirl agony aunt4 years at your age is too much. People will talk and his parents might possibly deny you seeing him. You wont be allowed to have sex with him for years as well...

As long as everyone is okay with it (and by that I mean his parents, himself and you, and possibly your closest friends) there shouldn't be much of an issue. But the most likely is that this relationship will be looked down upon, and you might have to make some sacrifices.
