uhh, hi... so i've been going to highschool for a week now, and i've already developed a crush. just like i told myself not to. the thing is that i'm 14, and he's 16 (a.k.a. i'm a freshman and he's a junior). i've been talking to him off and on the entire weekend. on monday i only saw him for a short amount of time, since he has off campus classes in the mornings and i have off campus classes at 4th. i was hoping to see him again on tuesday, but aparently the universe is against me and our school canceled on tuesday, and possibly for the rest of the week. i'm attempting to convince my parents to let me hang out with him, but since the age difference it freaks them out a bit. he is really sweet and he wouldnt do a single thing to hurt me, i dont see what they're problem is with him... even though they havent met him. but, i am planning to meet up with him and some of my friends, so they can be less paranoid. i just dont know... is it alright for me to like him? since we have an age difference. not to mention i havent ever dated before, let alone kissed a guy.

advice?

Heyy :) I'm 18 years old and when I was your age I went through these type of problems all the time. Don't be silly! Theres NOTHING wrong with you liking him! it's perfectly normal :) so don't worry about that. If I'm honest with you I wouldn't know what his intentions may be, but from what you've described him as he seems really nice. I would just say to you that you need to be careful that he doesn't take advantage of you (emotionally) and that you're not left feeling completely crushed by him. Also you need to make sure that his intentions are the same as yours, maybe you might think that he's giving you signals that he likes you, when really he may not.

About your parents; I would say that if you two were to start dating that you should introduce him to your parents as soon as you feel comfortable so that they understand that he isn't any harm to you and so they will not worry too much :)

Hope it helps
