A male United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Hi I have known a girl since I was around 10 years old and have always been attracted to her and thought she was really cool. Today she told me that she has always felt the same way about me. She is turning 17 in July, and I am 19 right now but will be 20 in November. Is it weird (or wrong) for us to be together? I don't mean in a physical way, because I don't think sex should occur until she is 18 next year, but is it normal and/or OK to have her as my girlfriend at this age?

That's less than three years age difference. It may seem like a big deal to you because you two are at such a young age but really.. less than three years isn't bad at all. I was 17 actually at one point and dating a 10 year old.. he was even 20 while i was 17 for a couple of months. It's not a big deal. Just respect her and stick to your no sex yet thing. i think that's awesome and i respect your values.

As long as she is over 16 and her parents dont mind I think you are fine to date her. You sound like a nice guy who cares about her alot, I say go for it. It's nice to see that you dont think sex should happen right away ! Good luck to you!
