Question - (15 June 2010) 5 Answers - (Newest, 16 June 2010)
A female United States age 26-29, anonymous writes:

Well it all started when i saw this guy in the cafeteria. I didn't know anything about him, and my friend had told me his name and few details about him. My friend was friends with one of his friends, and began to talk about how i liked him. They later on gave him my number and we began txting non stop from that moment on. after that i found out he was 18 and im 15.

While getting to know each other we found we had common interests and dislikes. So one time he walked me to my class as usual and he kissed me on the lips, we smiled and departed. I walked away so happily, but was thinking, so what does this really mean? The next day we ended up staying after school and decided to go sit out at the bleachers at the football field. There he told me liked me a lot and wanted to be a couple. I of course said yes and we hung out and while we were there, it felt as tho the rest of the world didn't matter.

Things are great between us 3 and 1/2 months later, our communication is so well we once ended up talking for 7 hours, and when it comes to the kissing and hugging, we don't seem to get enough. Hes told me that he loves me and that he is willing to wait till im 17 to be able to actually date with my parents not saying anything. He also says that he can picture me as his wife and that he only wants to make me happy. He does make me really happy and besides the fact that hes 18, we don't care what people say about the age, we personally don't think its that bad. The thing is tho:

1.I'm not allowed to be dating anyone until im 17

2.My mom found a txt message from him that showed the sexual side of him.

3.My mom disagrees with me having him as a boyfriend(like later on) because she says hes like an adult already and im still a child and i understand her opinion

Hes told me that he loves me and that he is willing to wait till im 17 to be able to actually date with my parents not saying anything. He also says that he can picture me as his wife and that he only wants to make me happy. He does make me really happy and besides the fact that hes 18, we don't care what people say about the age, we personally don't think its that bad. hes really sweet and caring and accepts my decisions.

Could this relationship really go on, the way we want it to? I feel really bad having to sneak around with him, but i just can't help it. I just want your opinion and or suggestions)

FYI: My parents aren't the type of parents who would eventually accept me being with some one at this age.

Hi there :)

i can totally understand the situation you are in as I have been in a very simiar one myself. The first thing I would suggest is tghat you talk to your parents. I know you said they are not the type to finally accept it so I would say that you should dit down with your parents and ask them to explain why they do not want you to have a bf and listen to their reasons, then they will hopefully let you say why you feel that you should be allowed to date.

If you think about it there is only a 3 year age differnece between you which may seem alot to some people at your age but noone would have a problem with a 18 year old and a 21 year old goin out or a 33 year old and a 36 year old so really Its not that big a deal. :)

Hope this helps, if you need any more advcie or someone to talk to Id be happy to help x
