Need advice on dating

[throwaway74836]

I've been talking to this girl on snapchat and we really hit it off and I think we really like each other. The only thing is, I'm almost 17 and she's almost 15. I already told her that I think the age difference might be a bit too much considering we're teens but I don't know if that was the right thing to do. She told me we could have dated and now I feel like an idiot. Did I make the right decision or is the age difference okay?

I think it was really responsible and considerate of you to consider the age difference. I personally don't think 15 and 17 is much of an age difference though.

Ya dude, it was worth taking it a bit further before shutting it down. Hopefully there's still a chance left to get to know each other a little better. If there is, I'd ask her if her parents would be ok with it and take it from there.

I very much agree with mick01. You can still talk to her and tell her that you would like to date her also if things are okay with her parents. If you were 18 and she 15 then I think maybe that the age split would be too much. Give it a chance if both of you want to and see how it goes.

I don't really think age should matter. If you really love her you can make it work no matter what. It is your personal opinion that matters of course. But it's not that big difference, only 2 year apart. As long you both are happy with it then do it!

The words used were almost bro?

OP;
Almost? By how much? So what happens when you ARE 18, and she’ll be how old? Think you’re asking yourself good questions. And I think the tools you may need to find the answers are her parents (see how they feel) cause if they don’t then they can make all kinds of trouble for you, and a colander. Seems like you may run a risk of being with her when your 18and she’s 15. I’d also take a look at the laws in your area, see what they are. An I’d doing this is illegal, take a look at what the consequences are. Then I’d take another look at how her parents feel, then another look at the consequences, then another look at the calander, then ask yourself is all of the working out?

If not, is it worth it?

The age difference is as big of an issue as you make it. One of my friends from high school is in his first yr of university and hid gf is in Gr 11. They've made it work.
