It's ok, you can go out with her :P
It's just that a 17 year old thinks quite differently from a 14 year old. I know it's only 3 years but those years in general - quite crucial, like a lot of stuff goes on. Some guy once asked me out, think I was 13, he was 17. He wanted to kiss and cuddle, I wanted to run around and watch TV. See the difference?

It's perfectly normal and acceptable. I dated a 14 year old girl when I was 17. To me you're both not adults yet, but also both minors and kids, and as long as you stay safe and respect each other you'll have fun.
Now if you were 30 years old and going out with a 14 year old girl, I would probably voice some concern.

Those three years in particular are very formative when it comes to relationships, as nananana batman said. It could get really difficult, and she's only thirteen. She won't want what you want- a long term, sexually fulfilling (unless she's a slut, in which case you shouldn't be dating her anyway :P ), mature relationship.
Having said that, when you get older, there is nothing wrong with age-gaps.

at that age its certainly MORE of an issue but its up to the individuals - whether they feel matched in terms of maturity since age is just a guide to how mature you are, not the definitive answer.
my bf is nearly 2 years younger than me, but at 22/20 its less of an issue (in fact its not an issue at all) and anyway we're only one academic year apart.

I agree with the post above ^^
It's only three years, and when you're 33 and she's 30 it really wouldn't make a difference at all. But I think at 17 you've got different goals and such, and probably a higher maturity than a 14 year old.
Saying that, I don't think its "weird", I just think its best to be careful when it seems like you might want different things out of the relationship. But if it works for you, then go for it!

Problem with 13 and 14, they are not going to be sure what they really want.

I'm 18 and my bf is 23 and we get along perfectly well. We share the same interests and want the same things from the relationship. When I was 14/15 I also had a bf who was 18 then and that worked as well. I think it strongly depends on the maturity of a 14-year-old girl, some are maybe quite childish, some are like all teenagers, some are very mature. I think age doesn't make a difference if you want the same things.

It's dodgy because it's illegal. Generally 17 is on a different maturity level from a 14 year old anyway. I wouldn't go there.

Personally, I think age should never be an issue. It should always be to do with what the individuals are like as people. If we were to limit ourselves to a narrow band of people because of age, surely we could be missing out on some of the greatest people out there? So for me, personality counts, age doesn't.

Not a big deal. There are more useful ways of comparing how much you have in common than age. Some people might be judgemental, but they're generally *****.
It gets a bit dodgy with younger girls though, as there comes a point where they are barely older than children. I'd question the motives of a 17 year old guy dating a 14 year old girl, as the difference in maturity would probably be quite large.

im 17 - would i consider going out with a 14 year old? no is the answer. why? because between the ages of 13 - 18 people seem to have a maturity jump. a typical conversation between 14 year olds is very different to a typical 17 year old chat...also theres the whole issue of them being under the age of consent - never a good idea to get involved
then again if there's grass on the wicket, its time to play cricket...
