at least in the UK and Ireland 2 years is perfectly acceptable.

i would argue that as long as you don't have sex with her when she's underage then it's not only ok, but also normal. when i was 17 i briefly dated a (very mature) 14 year old girl. don't judge me!

there's nothing wrong in your case.

Illithid agony auntI realize that the acceptible age difference is much smaller when you're younger. While 10 years is no big deal if you're 45 and 55, it would be a huge difference at 15 and 25. But even while in high school, 2 years isn't that large of a gap. As long as your maturity is similar, and your parents can trust the two of you, it should be fine. I've know seniors taking freshman to the prom without a problem.

Go for it.

DoubleM agony auntOf course not, even 20 years is not too big an age gap. Of course, I may be a bit opinionated at my age. LOL But really, two years is nothing as long as both are of legal age.
