I'm 14 almost 15 and every makes a big deal about me dating him because he's a junior but he's 16 n he will b 17 in September do you think its OK. :(

It doesn't matter what we think. What matters is whether your parents approve.

[Ilovehimmalott]

Is it OK?

[Ilovehimmalott]

My parents do approve but people say that since were 2 years apart that is something to do with the law is that true?

There is issues in law, if you decide to have sex with him ( and that will depend on where you live)
But you can date him, if your parents and his parents are OK with it

[J_9]

As Chuck says, if your parents are okay with it, then it should be okay unless sex becomes involved. It doesn't matter that you are almost 15 or that he will be 17 in almost a year. What matters is that you are 14 now and he is 16 now.

There are no laws governing dating. However, you are probably under the age of consent, so any sexual activity could get him in trouble.

But a 2 year gap is not too great and the most important thing is parental approval.

[Ilovehimmalott]

Im from Maine and my friends make a big deal about it but my parents and his parents are OK with us dating but then there was a rumor that was going around that I was pregnant and I wasn't n I just hope he doesn't get in trouble because people are saying that.

[ScottGem]

Anyone who makes a big deal is not being a good friend. Rumors of pregnancy will be quickly disproven if untrue.

But you need to keep away from any sexual activity

[Ilovehimmalott]

Ik but the thing is we didn't even think about that only planned on us doing that later one

[ScottGem]

Don't even think about it or plan it until you are 18

[Ilovehimmalott]

I was only planning on it when I turn 18 anyway but everyone keeps spreading this ****rn rumor around and the thing is its not true

[ScottGem]

Don't worry about rumors. In a couple months when you aren't showing the rumors will stop. Or talk to a counselor at school to help stop them.

[Ilovehimmalott]

Yah it will show them

[talaniman]

Don't worry about the haters, and game players, they are just jealous or evil so forget 'em.
