Heya!..i am in exactly the same position. Im also 15 and im dating a 19 year old guy.

Firstly, your family are just worried that you being with sum1 4 years older will mean you will try to act older and do things like drinkin, drugs, sex etc. They might be more approving if you explain 2 them that ur not gunna do those things?

If this is the real deal then eventually your friends and family will come around when they realise how much you and this guy care 4 each other.

You also need 2 be very careful cos older guys can be soooo manipulative and will be super good at cheating/lying to get what they want- but if you're sure bout his feelings then i say go 4 it !

but be careful huni

pancakes rule agony auntit's understandable why adults don't like it, they don't like the idea of you having sex or that he could be influencing you with things like alcohol, even though many 15 year olds drink and have sex with their bf/gf.

I'm not going to lie, there is quite a bit of maturing between 15 and 19, but a relationship with that age difference can still work.

It's impossible to say what the right thing to do is because older guys can just want you for one thing and will do anything to get it, including pretending to love you.

As long as your sure he loves you like you love him and that he'll respect you, there is no real reason to break up with him.

But do be careful.

good luck
