    You come right out and tell him and break up with him. The age difference between 10 and 15 is a bit much not only in years but experience.

    Do your parents know that you are seeing someone? What would they say?

    How long have you been going out with him?

    You are in primary school! Why on earth do you have a boyfriend!

    You just need to tell him and expect the worst.

    Tell him when you tell him that you can't date him any longer.

    How old is your boyfriend, and how did you meet him- on the internet?

    I presume that he's older than 15, and are you sure that he knows you are only 10?

    There are many kids your age that get lured into inappropriate relationships with older guys/men. You have called him your boyfriend, so, how did that come about- you must have been seeing him, or talking to him for a while?

    PLEASE tell your parents about what has happened. They need to know what you have been up to in order to protect you.

    It is a sad fact of life that a boy/man would attempt to have a relationship with a 10 year old girl, but it happens. You may not have realized what you were getting into, but this could indeed be very dangerous for you.

    Please confide in a trusted adult, and end the relationship immediately.

    Jake, supposedly the boy thinks she's 15. Though I am wondering how a 10 year old passes herself off as a 15 year old for any length of time unless it is on the internet.

    I was wondering the same thing. Even a mature looking 10 year old does not look like a late blooming 15 year old. There's a definite difference.

    Mz pain, you need to tell him your real age, then end the relationship. I'm guessing you lied because he's at least 15 years old. Anyone that old, or older, that's interested in dating a 10 year old is not healthy.

    Well I have seen a 11 year old looking like a 17 year old. Fully developed etc and pretty much mature for her age.

    You have to just be honest with him, and start being a 10 year old instead of pretending to be a 15 year old

    If you don't want to face him, send him a text or tell him on the telephone. Just tell him that you can't date him because you're not as old as he thinks you are.

    Where did you meet him?

    I think I'd tell my parents about him, because he may not be a nice person at all.

    Why did you lie in the first place?

    Hmmm... unless this is an internet relationship I'm going to bust this as a troll. I'm a parent of a 9 1/2 year old girl and the difference between 10 and 15 are astronomical.

    There are police officer specialists who do only this- look for men stalking and preying upon young girls on the internet.

    I think that if they have actually met in person, any reasonable male would run for cover realizing that a child was posing as a teenager.

    That she calls him her boyfriend, and implies that they are a couple, means that there is some history between the two of them, that continues now.

    Her only worry is revealing her real age, which in my opinion, is least of her worries- he is playing her most likely, and already has some idea that she is good pickin's because of her immaturity.

    10 year olds and 15 year olds are polar opposites apart intellectually, and particularly in maturity.

    Not to mention that he could be 37 years old, not 16 or 17.

    I hope that regardless of how they met, our OP is reading this and will put an end to it immediately.

    Jake: Had to spread the rep, but you bring up a good point! So if this isn't a troll and a real 10 year old girl I do hope she comes back and reads your post and puts an end to it, both if its over the internet or if its in person.

    I've heard of people both on AMHD before and in real life who only have had an internet relationship with someone and call them a BF/GF... (I don't mean to be disrespectful to the OP but a 10 yr. might take this even more lightly than an adult would... )
