2 to 3 years of difference isn't that much, but 8 years could be pushing it- it's not that it can't be done- it's that you still have some maturing to do. I know that because you tell us that you haven't told your parents. You need to drop this guy and put a hold on dating until you are ready to get married, and have a SERIOUS relationship.
If the relationship has to be a secret, then you shouldn't be in it.
A 17 year old teenage girl has no business dating a 25 year old man. It is not okay. The age gap is the same as a lightyear apart.
A 25 year old man, secretely seeing a 17 year old teenage girl, is a HUGE issue in my opinion.
If you were my daughter, the brakes would be put on this one without question.
< I only have one thing to say if the age gap is like a lightyear so that would mean a 21 year old dating a 29 year old is like a lightyear. I may be seventeen but that doesn't mean i am the normal 17 yr old for one ive dealt with things that most adults can;t even imagine
. So before you judge him and call him a RAPIST which isnt quite all true he may be four years older but im still old enough to consent so no RAPING has ever happened. I cant stand the fact that everyone ridicules him about me but im the victim i guess. If i didnt want to be with him i wouldnt i could have at least three other guys but none of them treat me as good as he does and i dont get the butterflys i get with him with anyone else he's the only one that can bring out the smile from my heart. He has bettered me in every way. I love him and dont tell me i dont know what it is, love isnt supposed to be Arguing about everything and calling each other every night thats not love! I have found a deeper love than most people ever even dream about. When i see his face my stress melts away and his kiss can stop the biggest downpour of tears. Thank you for your help advice and Judgement.
No one can stop you from dating him. Everyone is just laying out the law and their opinions. It's your choice whether you want to follow the law or follow their opinions.
There is a reason why laws are made. It's to protect a certain age group. Even if you think that you've experienced a lot at 17, it doesn't make you older. Don't confused your age with experience. Experience doesn't make you older, it just makes you more experienced.
Im 17 and i live in indiana my boyfriend is 25 can he be arrested for dating me and is it legal for us to have sex im so confused please help me!!
Aside from all the legal garbage, the real problem is this guy is a loser. A 25-year-old should be working full-time, saving up to buy a house among other things, getting his life organized and not wasting his time dating someone who's not even close to being on the same page as him; dating a teenager is really weird. You can't drink for another three years, and can you even get into a rated-R movie?

Right, 'cause ya know how poorly everyone on this planet deals with their issues. You're obviously dating this kid to prove a point (to yourself).

Oh Jeez, the 'I'm not a normal teen" gambit. Do you have any idea how many times we have heard that? Except very few teens, even at 17, have the experience to really judge how mature they are. And thinking that you know a deeper love than most people can dream of when you are only 17 just shows how little you can trust your emotions. But even if we take you at your word and you are special and the two of you are truly in love, that doesn't change the fact that he IS a rapist. Its not a judgement or an opinion, its a fact of law. The law states that if someone is under 18 it is ILLEGAL and considered statutory rape, to have sex with someone over 21 and more than 4 years older.
According tou he helped you through some "tough break". There is a string likelihood that what you think is love is just gratitude. But even if its not, this guy took advantage of you. If he was the saint you portray him as, then he would have backed off at having sex with you untill you were 18. I will repeat that any 25 yr old have sex with a 17 yr old has serious issues.
yeah, i thought the same thing when i was your age. that i was so mature for 17. i'm 20 now. and even though that's only a few years later, i can look back now and i have to laugh. i had a lot of growing up to do. heck, i still have a lot of growing up to do. and it's STATUTORY rape. and that is illegal. regardless of whether you agreed to it or not. you asked if it was legal. it's not. it's illegal and morally wrong.
Thanks i wish that sticky was more helpful on the situation than everyone else did!! Im going to try those things instead of sex
