I know he likes me too but I don't know whether to act on it or not. Help!! And be nice. Reply to this Question Share |

Our relationship started with him pursuing me, that let me know that I didn't have anything to worry about legally.
Good Luck!

I agree with the poster below, but I had the same situation and so me being a shy senior, I just forgot about him completely and didn't for legal reasons and the fact that he didn't really like me was the reason I backed away. I also prayed for things to be good and also that I wouldn't like a minor like that no more, and you know? I worked. Come the futre who knows down the road, if it was meant to be, it will. Fate will met us again.

Firstly i guess you need to consider that at the age of 15 your feelings can change in intensity and vary dramatically in no time at all, for you i suggest that this would indicate a need for caution before taking any further action (particularly if theres a risk of real physical intimacy). If you two get into something and it goes wrong then there could be many tears and worse, legal repercussions.
Is there any opportunity to spend time as friends? This will give you time to figure out if he is really the one you want, it may dispell some of the obsession, it will also give time for him to become legal, so at least if you do get into something you should know its for real. You will also be legal! good luck
