Dear mcflymad101

I think that you might risk your friendship on this one! I don't want to seem harsh, as I know this is a sensitive subject for you, and you're experiencing some strong emotional feelings. You are only 14 and what you are feeling is a teenage crush. We have all been there! I'm sure if you tell him, he will be completely flattered by your feelings, however it might make him uncomfortable in the long run, and he may not want to hang around you as much. He would be breaking the law as you are considered "jailbait." If this love affair were to blossom between the two of you, you would suffer the repercussions with your parents. I'm certain they would not agree to letting their daughter be with an 18 yr. old. It's best you think about everything from all angles, before making a decsion. Its best to keep him as your friend hun!

If you are considering a BF..then I think its best that you find someone your own age.

Take care :)

Dark_Storm11 agony aunthey there sweety

You have to consider that he is 18, and most probably having sex, although this shouldnt matter i have to stress to you that DONT LET ANYONE PRESSURE YOU INTO SOMETHING YOU DONT WANT TO DO.

Forget all that crap about you have to be 16, girls mature quickly and you should know when it is the right time FOR YOU. i made that decesion when i was 13 and i dont regret it because im mature.(i was born 21! or so my mum thinks!)

You also have to remember the little word "Rebound". Lads often do go on rebounds and wind up hurting innocent people.(me experiancing this) So you will need to wait a while before jumping into anything.

I believe you should arrange to meet him, tell him you heard about the breakup and offer to go out somewhere, like the park or anywhere you see fit. Get to know him a bit better and make sure he is asking questions about you. He needs to know you too. Offer advice on his break up to, which shows you care about him.

Now you can flirt girl! Keep meeting him/texting him/phoning him until you think you are at a stage where you are ready to confess that you like him.

Ask him what he sees in you,(dont kill yourself if he says just mates, lads are not very confident when it comes to this!)and if he asks you back tell him the truth, if he doenst ask you just tell him. make sure you are somewhere quiet and away from preying eyes. this way he can come out of his shell.

BELIEVE ME lads cant resist it when a girl makes the first move.

If the answer is yes, then see how it goes (age shouldnt matter, i was seeing a 16 year old when i was 13, and we were together years.) and if he says no then ask him you could both stay friends,i dont think he would kick you iif you were down if he is that sweet.

You sound mature enough, and if he is mates with you, i dont see why you cant become more.

I hope this helped hun, take care xx
