So, I met this guy, I'm 17, he's 23.
17 in my country is legal, before you go throwig that around  
Anyway, I've just started college, and he's in his last year at uni, studying law, so it's a longer course anyway.
Sooo .. is it really that much of a big deal, I mean, I think he's really funny, and sweet, and hell, he's just helped me plan out my french essay.
But then he's 6 years older than me, we're going to want completely different things.Meh, I could give it a go, unless everyone here thinks I'd be out of my mind to do that...

Nothing wrong with it, I'm 20 and my boyfriend is 27.  Do what your heart desires, its your life :)

Don't listen when people say it rarely works because what if its the real rarity that it does work?

xPicturesOfYou3 Posted at 11:48 am on Jan. 12, 2009
Well I suppose its okay. Many people have had bigger gaps in age before..

Its worth a try, it just may be hard now just for you two being at different stages in life but if you do not try you will never know.
