Yeah all relationships have bad times you come out the other end and will be all the stronger for it unless you do what i did (come out the other end, get drunk and cheat). Don't try it.

Yeah, the few problems my boyfriend and I have encountered have only made our relationship 10 times stronger and made us appreciate each other more!

I totally agree. Also even if you weren't in a relationship I'm not sure that it would be a good idea, he's three years older than you and at this stage in life that's a significant age gap. If he's about to go on to post 16 then it's unlikely he'd be right for you.

My advice would be to focus your attention on problems within your current relationship, have you tried asking why your boyfriends mum doesn't like you? Perhaps you can work things out with her?

good luck xxx
how old are you? 3 years isnt that much older when ur say 17/18 or older. well i dont think so anyway
if ur meeting up with him get to know him properly first before u say or do something. see if hes worth messing up ur relationship with ur boyfriend.

age does not matter.. but hey, u have to discuss matters with ure bf if u want to tell the other guy about what you feel.. or things could get messy

the age difference means nothin hunny :smile: i was going out wiht a fella for a while who was a 1st year in university and i was only in my GCSE year, its hard but it could work.... but is it worth leaving your boyfriend over him for?

first impressions would be sayin 'hi' when you walk past or if you see him out say 'hiya hows u' or something like that, it builds confidence.... :smile: but good luck xoxo
