He's 17 and I'm 14. Should I ask him out?

Question - (8 December 2009) 4 Answers - (Newest, 10 December 2009)
A female United States age 26-29, anonymous writes:

This is kinda kiddish but I'm a freshmen in highschool and im 14. there is this guy in my health class who I really like and he is a junior and 17.. All year I never made an effort to talk to him but he always talked to me. He flirts a lot and I do back but he has never asked me out, it gets really confusing too because one day he acts like he likes me and the next it's completly different. Do you think the age difference would be something that would get in the way? If not should i just take the lead or wait for him too?

Its only three years.

My sister was going out with an 18 year old when she was 14. It didn't last longer than a year of course, but the break0up was not bad. They remain friends until this very day. And she has not mental issues stemming from it.

You just need to be mature enough to know that the odds against this being true love are very slim at this point. So I say enjoy it while it's here, but don't let it destroy you when it goes, as it surely will.

You're 14- he's 17- he should be smart enough to know that he's in seriously dangerous territory for a statutory rape charge. No one except a 14 year old should date a 14 year old... no way- no how... there are far too many stories of sexually adventurous young people brought up on charges- do him a favor, leave him alone...
