Hey so I made a thread about a couple of weeks ago asking what I should do, I Took advice and Now The girl that liked me and I are in a relationship, We are 3 years apart but I told her age doesn't matter, Im Going to see her at the end of the year. The thing is She thinks its not going to work because of our age difference (3 years), Im 18 she's 15, I told her everything about me, She told me she was pregnant but lost the baby, I told her I don't care I love her, Anyway, Am I doing anything wrong?, I Know it's hard for her, Her friends are jealous Cause she has me and they don't have anyone, But I Love her and Don't want to lose her and she said she loves me more then anything

It sounds like you've got a good thing going on. Just be careful of the age difference since she is not of age to consent to sex (it's 16 in the US at least...).

I agree with Mike when he says you have a good thing going on here, but I want to bring up a couple of things. The first thing I want to bring up is reinforcing Mike's point of the age of consent. You--being 18--need to be incredibly careful because, after doing a little research, regardless of where you live in Australia the age of consent is AT MINIMUM 16, it could be as high as 18 depending on what region you live in. That means that if anything happens and she does end up pregnant, until she turns 16 it is a criminal offence by law in Australia. I'm not condemning you or chiding you, I'm just informing you to be extremely careful until she reaches the legal age of consent. The other point I want to bring up is when you said "She thinks it is not going to work because of our age difference..." Do NOT, in any way, force someone to continue a relationship they are uncomfortable in. I'm not saying she is or isn't comfortable, but just be cautious. I hope it works out for you guys, but if she ends up being uncomfortable with the age difference, don't force her to stay in the relationship. That wouldn't be fair to her. It wouldn't be a bad idea to ask her how she feels about everything either. I know you say you love her, I just warn you to be cautious again. I wish you two the best of luck, and we're always here to support you and help you if you need it.

Stick with it, I'm 18 and mine is 15 too :) Anything can happen, anything is possible. Just talk to her every day, make sure she knows you care.

Thanks for the tips, It's working at the moment and she wants to stay together forever. Only bad thing is her ex is harassing her.
