I see no problem with it. As long as both are legal, i think it's fine. Afterall, age is just a number.

Legally you can go for it. Emotionally you should wait. Do you like the same guys you did at 15? By the time you fully develope (Newsweek ran an article in '06 how the teenagers brain is not fully developed till they are in their mid twenties) your tastes and understanding changes. There are those rare few who really know that they know that this is the person for them but when you have to ask, then it is better to wait till you are 21 till you get really serious. Sure enjoy each others company (don't fornificate) and if it is really L O V E it will wait. It just like a business deal. If some one offers you something and tells you the offer is only good today, you must make a decision right away. Doesnt give you time to think or pray you can be sorry the rest of your days. The more you communicate, interact with learn about the other person the more you learn what to expect from them. This is not Walmart where you try before you buy!

Sure you can.. in the USA anyway.. 18 is the age of majority. You can get married even if you want. As for age difference.. thats up to you... there are no guarantees.. even people the same age have no guarantees with that stuff... thats only a 7 year gap.. pretty insignificant if you ask me..

the focuses are diverse, a 15 yearold lady continues to be a newborn even inspite of the shown fact that she would be able to enable you be attentive to she isnt. think of a 12 or 13 yearold in a grown up physique, she would be able to get you into hardship and doesnt understand how severe a number of the tense circumstances an 18 yearold faces particularly whilst it is composed of independence. In Maryland the regulation says that the age distinction may well be no extra advantageous than 4 years in the event that they seem to be a minor, yet age of consent in MD is sixteen. Im uncertain what this is on your state besides the undeniable fact that this is unlawful

The gap in years isn't too big, but 7 years is a lot when it comes to things being in common. It is likely his taste in everything is different than yours..... you can't just survive on attraction. Once the novelty is over...what you have left is the person inside.... so make sure there is enough in common.

Age is no barrier. In many cultures younger women prefer older men because they are generally more stable, probably have more experience and may offer a much more secure and honest relationship.

That's not to much of a gap.
Men are usually more immature that women anyway.
