I'm in love with a 16-year-old. He's not some wackjob like everyone thinks he is, he goes to my church and would never try to sexually harass me or anything like that. I've known him since I was 4, and he's totally sweet. My parents like him, but they think its weird that he likes me in that way. My friends are cool with it, and so is his family, but everyone else is freaking out. Any thoughts?
I think that if it is really as good as it seems then he is worth waiting for, and so are you.
It really surprises me though that you are only 11, considering your grammar and spelling is better than most 18 year olds.
Anyway, there are just so many things that change throughout your life, its dangerous to put so much unto a relationship right now.
Do you even know where you firmly stand in areas such as religion, politics, finances, future child bearing and raising, etc.?
Those things are very real and have a huge impact on the relationship you will have with a person.
And I know some people say that dating while you are young is just for fun, but I dont believe that.
I believe it is meant to be used for looking for the one you will marry, and any other use of it is willingly participating in something that will hurt you, another, or both.
1. yupp us kids today have good grammer.
2. its pretty cool, and if your family's alright with it then it's alright.
3. you might want to wait a while to date him, or anything.
since your only 11. (:
but yeah, go you! lolll.
okay..a few things you need to consider
1# is it love? i know its a hard thing to ask you to ask yourself, but i thought i was in love once, but no i realise it was just a stronger feeling than i was used to.
2#your 11, hes 16, you will need to wait many years before you can date him.
3# but lighten up! if it is love (which will take you time to fully understand your feelings for him and whether it is love) then you are very lucky.
good luck! hope it goes well.
It sounds like a good relationship, that he's a nice guy, but I think you should wait a bit. You're 11 years old!! Go out an play have fun... believe it or not guys take up alot of your time. I've been told by my friends that I spend to much time with my boyfriends. Like I said you're 11 years old you should go out and have fun not have a time consuming bf :P. Just wait a bit... maybe a year or two.... wait that wouldn't work >.< he'd be 18 then wouldn't he? Yikes! Okay just wait a bit if you get what I"m saying... plus it would really be worth a try if he waited for you to get older cause I'm sure he likes you.
I really dont think a 11yr old just be testing these waters just yet. As for the 16 not trying anything...............rrrrrrrrrrright, people hes a guy, not a saint.
give him an inch he'll take a mile.
sarrahbanna, just give it some time, the way you feel for him is the same way youll feel many many times for other guys, its just the way it is.
I can completely understand everyone freaking out. First, you are too young to be thinking in terms of dating. Second, the age difference is too great (AT THIS TIME). In 2 years he will have graduated high school and maybe be going on to college. You will just becoming a teenager. You both will be in different worlds and your interest will be widely divergent.
Be his friend and when you turn 18 and he is still interested in you, then you can explore a relationship.

MOWERMAN! dude, it's her life. and if her family knows him, it'll be fine. give him a chance.

Dudette, Its NOT her life yet. At 11 she is still the responsibility of her parents and under their protection. At 11 she is neither experienced enough nor emotionally mature enough to make this type of judgement. And what if she does give him a chance and he takes advantage of her and she becomes pregnant? How much of a chance will she have at life then? And how much of a chance will he have if he is convicted of stautory rape?
Yes, its remotely possible that this boy is a gentleman who would never think of taking advantage of a girl. And its possible I will hit the lottery this week.
