Question - (22 March 2009) 5 Answers - (Newest, 17 April 2009)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

ok...i have been having a huge issue lately. i am 17 and i have been texting this guy who is 27 for 10 months now. We text almost every minute and he sounds like a great guy. he has sent me pics but i havent sent him any. the problem is is that i told him that i am 25 and i live in a different state than him. He always texts me cute things like "Hey baby" or "hunny i love you". Everything i text him is how i really feel about him. I know i should tell him who i really am but i have a feeling that when i do he wont talk to me ever again because he has made it clear he doesnt want a relationship with someone under 18. i love texting him but i hate leading him on like this. please help me out with some advice!

It isn't fair of you to tell him lies. Tell him the truth and move on.

ArmyMedic agony auntYou have to tell him the truth! Then it is up to him what he does next, I don't know what the legal age of consent is in your State. But it's not fair that he doesn't know the truth.

Helplessgirl agony auntI think you need to come out with the truth, as hard as it may seem it is so much better then leading someone on, and you will feel better.

If he really loves you then he will accept you for your real age and if he tells you otherwise, such as your a liar and I don't want anything to do with you anymore or in resemblance to that, he isn't worth your time.

If you end up spending your life with him, he needs to know the real you and the woman he is spending his life with.

sweetest_sin agony auntWell, I'm sure telling him the truth is better than leading him on. Honey, we don't know if he will all of sudden drop out because you're 10 years younger, yes that's a huge age difference right there but if you tell him the truth and if he took the time to get to know the real you inside, it would be better that way. Honesty is one of the most important things to consider for a relationship (if you want one with that person of course)

Don't lead him on, making him think that you're older than who you are, we'll never know unless we try right?

If he does take it the wrong way, please don't lose hope, there are plenty of other guys out there who are just waiting to meet you :)

Best of luck to you xo
