I'm 17, he's 19. Is this age gap too much?

That is almost bordering on paedophillia...almost


Paedophila is being attracted to children. The person in question is attracted to somebody who isn't a child in legal terms.

So nah it's not at all really.

when I was 20 going on 21 I was with a girl who was only just 17 - I didn't find it weird - we had a lot in common. we were at the same work too. and yeah, we did have sex

I mentioned the word 'almost' twice yet you will still blind to the point I was making. ALMOST, not DEFINITE

(We are both guys, not that it makes a difference)

I've just turned 17, and he turned 19 a bit before me. I'm mature for 17 if I may say so myself.
He's in first year of uni, in a city about 35mins train journey away and I'm in sixth form.

We were texting for over a week, and he came to my city to meet me. We went on a date and it went really well. He gave me butterflies and stuff, and he told me I gave him them too.
As he left to go home, he asked for another date and gave me a hug which gave me super butterflies and it felt like I was walking on air.

I can'f get him off my mind. I even get excited if I see he's messaged haha.

I'm planning on going to his city in a week or so to see him.

Are all these feelings normal?
Any advice?


No if you weren't born on the exact same day it ain't right. Think you should take a good hard look at yourself and think about what you've done.
i think this is normal?
it's only two years and you're over 16 therefore there isnt actually anything wrong in this situation, go for it!!!:smile:
The ages are a little bit dodgy, as soon he'll be 20 and dating a 17 year old is a tad creepy. The worst bit is that he's in uni and you're still at school. Remember that even if you feel mature, in comparison to his friends you're a child, and you can't join him and his friends clubbing etc, so you may find the differences in what you can do together vs what he can do without you a strain

Sounds fine to me!
It's completely fine. 2 years is nothing as long as you're both legal, which you are. Go for it
