No.

It is highly illegal and you should consider his intentions for being with you. He probably makes you feel like your the only one he likes, but he could be taking advantage of you so that he can have sex with you, which is illegal. Men that age simply would not date a 15 year old unless they only wanted sex from you. Don't let him convince you he loves you, because chances are you are going to end up being hurt. Walk away from it now, before it gets too serious.

inneedofattention agony auntwell im not from america, im from the uk, in the uk its not illegal for you to date him, but its very illegal for you to have sex with him as your under 16. I would recommend you keep away from this guy, the only reason i can think of a 25 year old man getting together with a 15 year old girl is for 1 thing, the thrill of having illegal sex, without it being rape. please keep away from him for your own safety.

your friend, in need of a little attention.

hi

just read your question

and yes it is illgeal to be with some one 10 years older then you

espcially if your under the age of consent

and if you do get into a relationship with this man/boy who u like then it will cause major problems.

One of my friends have just been something similar to this and it was a living nightmare for her!

she is now 16 nearly 17 preganant and a single mum and i just hope that this will not happen to you , if you take the right advice.

the decision is up to you.

i really do hope you make the right one.

i hope my advice has really helped you

xoxo

xJoanneyx agony aunthey hunni, i wouldnt recomend that you have sex with this man, and yeah it is against the law. you seem like a mature 15 year old with her head screwed on as you asked for advice, in the end you have to make up your own mind and ask yourself why is a 25year old man wanting relations with a 15year old girl? all i can say hunni is if you do have sex with him be safe use a condom and i wish you all the luck in the world be safe! xx

It is illegal sweeetheart.

It wouldn't really be right in my opinion. Not for a few years anyway.

If he likes you too he won't mind waiting.

Good Luck X

A female reader, Star_07 United States +, writes (29 May 2008):

Star_07 agony auntIt it not only illeagal for you to be with someone 18 and older but it is wrong of him to be dating someone your age. And if you two are having sex, he could be charged with statutory rape.

You are 15, just starting to date and learning about relationships as well as sex. He is in his 20's, already learned about those things and is hopefully thinking about a career and more serious relationships. 10 years is not a big difference but it depends on the age. There is a big difference between 15 and 25. A lot of things go on between these ages so its most definately not a healthy situation. But, for example if you were 25 and he was 35, then the difference in experience would not be as great and it could work (plus this is considered two legal adults).

You have a lot to learn and experience right now and a 25 year old man has no business with someone your age! Look at this way, would you date someone 10 years old? Even though its only 5 years, there is a huge difference between 15 and 10.

I hope this helps!

A female reader, HonningKanin Norway +, writes (29 May 2008):

HonningKanin agony auntThats not a boy thats a man and yes its very illegal to have a sexual relationship with him. He can go to jail in America for rape.

To have a non-sexual relationship it is not illegal, but you will have alot of bad attention from people around you. If you two love eachother then it wont matter. If he loves you he will wait till you are 18 for anything sexual.
