Well first off, stop posting you're every thought and fear on facebook. Not to be rude, but when people post things like that it's aboslutely SILLY and uncalled for.

Second of all, when you two are both older and out of high school (Or you're twenty one, and she's a senior) it won't really matter. Age stops mattering to a point after a few years but at the moment, it's immoral. You should make this clear to her, and tell her that you appreciate her liking you and all, but you think it would be best if you waited a few years until the two of you are much older and able to reconsider the whole thing.

Lexi has a point about Facebook, posting literally everything you think is dodgy enough. I have no idea how old she is, UK not US, so I can't really make a decent point but I'd just say that wait until you're both older and gradually the age difference will seem less significant.

tbh, similar to what these guys said, posting very personal insights like that on facebook says quite a bit about your self-esteem and wanting some attention. And i think it's better if you talk to someone personally about this matter instead of making the world see it on a social network... (No offense intended...)

As for the girl who likes you, maybe you should talk to her about you not being comfortable with the age gap. She should be able to understand how you feel about this.
