Couldn't tell cos he was so tall and seemed matured. Now I feel so down, cos I don't know what to do. I have tried hard not to like him, but it just can't be done. What do I do?

One or two years is hardly an age difference. It's not a big deal. You probably have pressure from your friends about it but if the guy is someone who will make your days more enjoyable then who cares if your friends think he's too young? You should be with someone because of who he is and how he makes you feel, not because of what year he is born, at least with a difference as insignificant as one or two years. My husband is 19, I'm 20. WHen we first got together at 17 and 18, my friend gave me crap for it, but he's worth her snotty remarks.
Think of when you're 38.. would you care if you husband was 37? 36? 35 even? Not likely.
Take care.

If you're 16 and he's 15 or 14, that age difference really isn't that big of a deal. I dated a few guys younger than me when I was in high school. The only thing to be worried about is that they may not be as mature as you! But, if he seems mature and you think that he'd make a good boyfriend, don't worry if he's a little bit younger than you. It's not that big of a deal! Good luck, sweetness!!
