Yes. It is pretty strange to see a 12 year old hanging around with a 16 year old. Try inviting more people along? :confused:

depends if your going as friends or not imo.

well if it's just a friend, there's not harm in that. You shouldn't be embarassed by them.

No there's nothing weird about that. :smile:
Me and my sister have a 3 year age gap and we always hang together.
I doubt people will notice or care anyway. :smile:

I think its great you're friends with a 12 year old, i don't why there's a whole 'stick to friends your own age thing' ive been friends with a girl for 8 years and there's a 4 year age gap between us like you, 12 and 16 but we're completely on the same level, she's more mature than me though :p: I really don't see why in any way a 12 and 16 year old hanging out should be weird at all :confused: x

I have a friend who's 13 years older than me-I first met her through her boyfriend who was one of my best friends' older brothers (he (my friend) was 21 at the time-so I suppose theres a trend here....) when I was 16 and she was 29, I really dont see anything wierd about being friends with someone older/younger than you.

You best be feeling guilty now that you know why.

Theres nothing weird with it, although inviting more people along would make it seem more normal if thats what your worried about

I know there are different kind of deafness. Some deaf people can hear more than others and don't even need subtitles however, they're probably useful.

TO OP: Who cares what anyone thinks, enjoy yourself! Release your inner child.:biggrin:
