im 16 my girlfriend is almost 17 so not much of an age gap but in the end i believe it to come down to personal opinion an if you two are in love or what ever you want to say then it's not wrong at all plus you are both of legal age so there is nothin anyone can say or do nothin wron what so ever

lexilou agony auntMy friend started dating her boyfriend when he was 16 and she was 19. They used to get the same bus everyday and she thought he was gorgeous. She thought he was her age but by then found he was younger, she didnt care even though she got a lot of stick for it. They are 24 and 21 now, still going strong and saving up for their own place. My husband is also 3 years younger than me. Its not just about age, if he is the right one then ask your parents to respect your decision x

birdynumnums agony auntIf you are within a year and a half of each other at your age, then NO, you are not out of the appropriate age groups, in most people's eyes - I'm quite sure of that. The more important question, that should matter to you, is why do you like him? Hopefully, the reasons are more than superficial and you have common interests!

you are100% in the right.

if you and your boyfriend love each other, then no matter what any one else thinks you should stick together.

just because your parents think your wrongfor it, you are not their puppet whose life can be control because they disprovel.

answer the question with how it works out.

saltwater agony auntCourse you're not in the wrong.

It's all legal.

Maybe if you show your parents how happy you both are together then they may begin to accept your choice. You say you both like each other so that should be easy to do.

when i was 18 i was with a 19 year old.

when i was 20 i was a 28 year old!!!!

as long as you like him thats all that matters. enjoy yourself but dont do it just because you dont want to admit your wrong.
