Well...... Sorry to break the truth but..... 5 years is a gigantic difference since we are teenagers and the liking thing is probably more of her being like "Oh he's cute" and stuff but I don't think she would want to have a physical relationship with you.... Just what I think. I might be wrong.

It depends, is she still in your school, if so that may cause slagging for both of you, however Im guessing she might be at college or something.

It really depends, lots of people may be like omg thats odd etc etc however if you both feel 100% truly in love dont let age stop you.

First I am home schooled. And I went to my moms church it is a kind of you don't have to agree hippie dippie thing and the preacher used to be a atheist so I was welcome.

And I went with the other teens and 4 out of 5 of them where stupid immature idiots. And I really don't want to blow my one horn but I am not like other teens I almost never get along with my one kind my few friends are all over 25. And I am 13 she is 16 or 17 WAIT WHAT AM I SAYING 13 + 3 = 16. And there was quite a bit of small talk.

Ok well I feel a bit stupid now.



So what do you think?



Also it would not look odd because I am vary tall and look 16. I am a vary vary fast developer.

'hippie dippie thing with an aethiest preacher', huh? Suddenly, after following your story, it all makes some sense now. LOL!

I agree that 5 years is a fairly huge difference right now. A friend, sure. A date, no way. You're too different, your needs are too different, your expectations are too different, and you're in different stages of emotional develpment, it's too complicated.

Be a friend, there's no age restrictions on that.

She is in her Highschool years, and you are in your junior high years, there is too much of a difference. She probably wants a bf that can drive and do other things, sorry dude

5 years may to be too great of a difference.
Have you thought of the complications? At 16-18, she'll be driving, she's in high school, she wants sex [probably], she wants to go out, she wants to have fun, she wants to have unrestricted time with her boyfriend, she wants to be 16-18. At 13, you most likely do not have those abilities or freedoms, and you can't satisfy all of her needs.

Not only that, but would your parents even allow it? Would teachers see you as kind of awkward? Dating someone 5 years older is not exactly the common thing, and quite frankly a lot of adults may find it unsafe for you.

Depending on certain laws, it may be illegal. Your parents can give permission, though, I think think.

I personally see no problem with it. I have very strong morals, but age restrictions is not one of them. I have the mindset of someone in their forties. I turned sixteen a little more than a week ago.

You do NOT mature according to your age. You sound very confident that she likes you. If she does, go for it. If she doesn't, it's her mindset that's restricting her.

Everyone is different. Good luck :)
