What should I do?

Question

I am a senior guy in highschool and there is this freshmen girl that seems to like me.We have been talking and stuff but the only thing stopping me from maybe getting serious is the 3-year age difference...Her mother and younger siblings seem to see nothing strange in us hanging out, haven't met the father though haha.So what should I do?Should I just be friends with her and not go out with her since I am going 2 1/2 hours away to college in the fall?

Answer 1

just enjoy her company and dont think too hard about what others will say or even what you say, well since you are going away i suggest to not take it any deeper, althought it would not hurt for her and you to become really close friends and let nature decide.

Answer 2

I can tell you from experience that long distance relationships are very hard on both people.
I can also tell you that the age difference doesn't matter if you both like each other. I am married to a man that is 4 years younger than I am and the age difference isn't a problem for us. As long as both of you get along, then you shouldn't worry about the numbers. Trust me, they may seem like a big deal now, but in a few years you won't even worry about ages.

Answer 3

Just be friends.
Right now a 3 year difference is a big deal, but once you're both in your 20's that won't be a big deal.
ALSO... long distance romances do NOT work.
You in college and her in highschool is a major discrepancy at this point in her life, and it's way too young to try to develop a serious relationship. If you're meant to be together, it will last and you can have that later on, so just go for the friendship now.

The best serious relationships are those which started first as just good friendships.

Answer 4

I hate to say this, but the 3-year age difference might have legal consequences if your idea of "serious" has a sexual side. Look up your state's definition of statutory rape.

Answer 5

Age doesn't decide love. Its all up to you and what you feel.
