If you’re not a minor YES, do the words stagatory rape mean anything to you?
Actually even if you're still a minor, it's still against the law. Weird, no?


Not really.

19/16 isn't much different than 17/15. In fact, the percent difference between the two is only ((15 / 17) - (16 / 19)) / (15 / 17) = 4.56140351% So, I think that's still within the normal range.

I'd say when you start getting into 5 year differences if you're under 23, then it gets to be a bit weird. Even 10 year differences in your 30s is a little off to me.


I dunno. Someone who is 16 is either a sophomore or junior in high school, and at 19 you're either a freshman or sophomore in college [or not in college], which, to me at least, seems like you'd be in very different stages in life, and, in general, I'd think that would lead to different levels of maturity. You 2 would be an exception because you're both very immature. My excuse anyway.

But maybe that's because at the moment the idea of college is most likely very exaggerated in my mind. I have a deathly fear of it.
We are both a little immature.

If I was dating someone else in college, honestly I'd get so bored of it. It's sort of counter-intuitive probably, but I get enough of college without needing it in my romantic life. If I was dating someone my own age, it'd just be sex and bitching about classes in between. No thanks :/

And maybe I am a little bit of a *****? I dated a freshman when I was a senior and got arrested for it once already, you'd think I would have learned my lesson by now. But nope. Maybe I have the mind of a seven year old, maybe it's something about pseudo-innocence. Or maybe I'm just unlucky, finding people I really connect with and who I'm really attracted to, consistently three years younger than me. Idiocy or immaturity, either way you look at it I'm probably not making the best decisions. But what's life without error?


I wouldn't call it a ***** at all. My only reason for thinking it might not be a particularly healthy age difference for such a relationship is a generalization that two people below erm... 20? ... would have some difficulties really understanding each other in some way, such as trivializing each other's problems or something, because at the moment they cannot fully appreciate it because it is not something that is currently relevant to them.

++I forgot to comment on how you were deluding yourself by saying you're only a little immature. emo
+++And yes, it was that necessary to include that.

That's true, and it's true for everyone. It's one of the problems that we have seemed to overcome. As unlikely as it may sound for a couple whose ages are 19 and 16, I think this one will last. And I'm sure you'll disagree, and I'll disagree with your disagreeing, but can we just skip that part and agree to disagree? :O
Wanna know how immature I am?

See the picture in my sig? My best friend at my old university took it. I was throwing a hissyfit beacuse I hate cheese, and BurgerKing put cheese on my hamburger. I believe that was captured in the middle of me saying "I ******** hate cheese."

emo Story time over.

That depends of the age difference. But if it was 17/15 or 18/15 or 19/16 then It wouldnt be so bad

I still think that's weird.

why? My boyfriend is 17 and i am 15. And we have NO problem with that.

I wouldn't disagree.
For the general couple with that age difference? I would.
For the general couple that young at all? I would.

I'd be really ignorant if I said that all such relationships didn't last.

All things considered, I don't know either of you well enough to truly disagree or agree, though from what can observed through the LD, I wouldn't disagree.

I'm "dating" someone who is over the age of 18, he's 19; I'm only 16. I say that in quotations because we're not offical yet, as if it has to be offical. (: Anyway, he's technically an adult and I'm technically still a child. It's not illegal in our state because he's under the age of 24 and I'm over the age of 15. The legality varies. (:
Half your age plus seven rule. wink

..........................uhhhhhhhhh?
I'm 16 and my boyfriend is 18. We have discuss the risks for dating each other.
It's just sketch. Don't ******** em', you might get busted by the 5-0.
It's not illegal to date a minor if you guys don't do anything sexual.
But it is a bit weird to most people. Depending on the age gap that is. User Image
It depends on the age difference. 15/18 is normal but 15/27 is very questionable.

In my state though, once a person hit 16 they are free game.

My first boyfriend back when I was 14 was a little over 5 years older than me and somehow that lasted over 2 years. When I think about it now, I don't see why he wanted to be with me. A good part of me really doubts he saw me as a "woman" especially since I had the body of a 13 year old even until the end of the relationship, and that I was naive and pretty damn ignorant.
