i dn't see a problem here, the gap may sound large but when you say it as two years, it doesn't reli sound all that huge. when ur 24 and 22 for example it haarldly makes any difference

A relationship with him would not be wrong - as long as it is not a sexual one as he is too young for consent. He will not be old enough to give legal consent for sex until he is 16.

I don't see why two years would make much of a difference as long as you both enjoy the same type of things. There are six years between my husband and myself and that has never caused a problem for us.

I wish you both happiness.

kenny agony aunt2 years is no age gap atal, like hello1 say's if you would have said 13 or 14 i would have said no. At the end of the day age is only a number, how a couple feels about one another far supersedes age. The age gap in this case only stands out a little because he is still 15, but then you are only 17. In a few years like when you are 22 and he is 20 it won't even be noticable.

All the best & good luck x

hello1 agony aunt2 years is not a lot. If you said he was 14, I would say he was off limits. You know what this guy is like, if you hope to have an sexual relationship that be a no no as your be the one to get into trouble. Teenager age gaps are huge but if he's mature for his age, I see no problem.
