writes: I'm 16 years old, I've been meeting up with someone who I like very much for about a year now, and it's just been meeting and hanging out a bit in the past but now it's starting to be more like it could really go somewhere despite obstacles. which leads me to my problem: He has just turned 19 and is at university, and upon first meeting him i lied about my age - at the time i was 15, and said i was 16.. I didn't think we would ever meet up or anything at the time I said it, and I don't know why I did it, at the time being 15 was a big gap and I suppose I just wanted us to keep talking. but here I am a year later and he thinks I'm 17, and is wondering whether i'll be going to uni at the end of the year etc. I really want to tell him and i feel truly terrible, he cares a lot about being able to trust people and I'm scared if it's going to be a dealbreaker, but at the same time sooner or later he's going to find out through someone else, or at least wonder why i cant go out for a drink with him when I'm supposed to be 18 etc. Any thoughts on what I should do?

You know WHAT to do. You have to tell him. As for the how, the only way I know how is to sit him down and talk to him about what you did and the lack of reason behind why you did it. You are only a year older than you truly are to him so it should not be that much of a big deal. Good Luck.
I hope that helps.
