3 years is not an age gap.

No, he is not embarrased by YOU, he is just nervous about what dating a girl 3 years younger than him will do to his image. Guys often feel this way when it comes to what his friends will think. But t be honest, he does have a point, you are three years younger than him. in a couple of years he will want to be having the sort of relationship that you wont be ready for, i would move on.

if he loves you the age gap shouldnt matter

ask him his reasoning on why its such a big deal maybe its because your at different places in your lives right now

Spiffeh.. agony auntI have the same age gap with my boyfriend and we kept our relationship a secret for as long as we could because of it.. As you get older the age gap wont seem as bad so if the age gap bothers him that much maybe wait untill you are about 13? But he isnt embarrassed by you just afraid that people will taunt him my boyfriend has been called a peadophile and taunted about taking advantage of me (which he hasnt) but it all gets old soon and dies down quickly, tell him that =] x

Sounds like he has a good head on his shoulders.

He knows that it would be wrong to date you right now even if he has feelings for you. At this time, 3 years is a huge difference in maturity level.

He's not embarrassed by you, I think its just his morals.

Maybe in a few years if you two still like each other you pursue something, but not yet. You are too young still.

Tii3RN3Ybbs. agony auntHi There,

Have u ever thought to think that maybe hes scared of what hes mum and hes friends might think of this?

and i recomend you go for someone your own age , yeah it might upset you both and him [if he does really like you] but he will soon be wanting things you are yet not to give?

have a little think or talk to somebody xx

Emaz help agony auntIt might not because he's embaressed

but you're not even a teenager yet while he's nearly at the legal age of sex!

Please be with someone your own age as you're less likely to get hurt or do things you might regret

It is quite a big age gap as you're both so young, if you were both older then it wouldn't matter as much
