Relationship Advice Needed

Hey I need help because my parents won’t let me date this guy and they said it’s because of the age gap, I’m 13 and he’s 16. But, he has never done anything sexual with me more than kissing and hugging. He’s very respectful but my parents banned me from talking to him or seeing him. I just wanna talk some sense into my parents I don’t know how though because I have betrayed their trust multiple times and they caught me this morning walking with him. I just need help.

Focus on your education you have a lot ahead of you that you need to obtain, such as your educational qualifications like your GCSES and A-Levels and he most certainly ain’t going to give it and it’s not the time to date. And the age gap in itself seems awkward the guy is going to be leaving secondary school he’ll eventually turn 17 your 13 yeah that ain’t right at all. Just forget about it completely. Focus on your preparations towards your exams you ain’t ready for a relationship neither should be thinking about it in the first place.

Girl I say this from the bottom of my heart as another girl, who has made the same mistakes. You are 13 and he is 16. That is not normal. Just because he has only hugged and kissed you is not what's important - he should not be with you, a 13 year old, at his age, and he probably knows that. He may seem nice but the chances are he isn't if he is dating someone as young as you !

I'm with the parents; 13 is too young to be dating a boy of any age, even another 13yo. A 16yo hugging and kissing you isn't being respectful; that would be him not doing anything with you. What do you think this 'dating' is going to involve if it's already getting physical and intimate?

I’m sure that the comments here have explained it very well.

One thing to keep in mind is to try to understand this from a parent’s perspective - I believe that they may just want the best for you, for there are always reasons behind each action. So try to figure out the reason why they think this way and talk to your parents about it!

He should find someone his own age, this is not normal behaviour from him.

Don’t think the comments above were want u wanted to hear and we both know in the end of the day you will still want to see him.

I don’t think ur parents main concern is the age gap rather the age you both currently are, you jst turned a teenager and he will be starting college soon (closer to 18)

If he really loves/likes you then tell him to wait till ur at least older. (As you said his respectful) If his struggling to then yk its not worth going against ur parents but realistically without a first hand experience u wont really understand ur parents perspective.
