A guy 5 years younger?

I feel embarassed that I am starting to like a guy thats five years younger then me, he's 17 also 18. We started talking randomly and found out we went to the same high school, obv @ different times, and from there we;ve started to talk a lot etc. I haven't done anything with him, (I know he likes me, but I am starting to like him (but I havent let on) and that wrong, right? I find it kinda weird... help, what should I do?

Hmm. Just think, if this was a guy and a 5 years younger girl. Consider the response you'd get in that situation and just start from there. Then again 18 years old, the gap only widens as younger/older couples seem to get more common.

Try spending more time with people of your own age group and hopefully you'll soon realize it's not just younger guys you're in to!

Dare to be different!
Who cares about what everyone else thinks?
And if you start to like him, it's only proof that all these myths about "age gap relationships" are none but social paradigms destined to end within time.
And if you like him, also your friends might like him :smile:

You don't need to tell everyone his true age :P

I don't think a guy 5 years younger is that bad. Well it looks a bit weird if you're both teens though. But once you get older it doesn't matter.

I have been out with guys older than me, the same age as me and a tiny bit younger that me. My last bf was the same age as me (22) and was a bit crap really. I also find guy my age n older just wanna try n have sex with me and try it on, but this younger guy has been a complete gentleman.

If this guy is nearly 18 that must make you 23ish which to me would not be a problem. If you like him i'd say go for it, he is old enough to make his own decisions.

Demi Moore came on here with a thread like this a few years ago. We advised her accordingly, even though her case was more extreme.

If he's 12 and you're 17, there's problems, but say 18 and 23, that's fine.

Go for it
You're both above the age of consent, you have had experience of other people, he's willing to not be worried about your age.
Just be careful, uni and whatnot could get in the way, take it slow

good luck :smile:
