Is it ok for a 17 and a 25 year old to date?

Question

I am 17 and I met this amazing guy, not knowing he was 25. We both really like each other and we have an effortless connection. I feel like it’s wrong for us to date though and it makes me sad. A lot of adults who are married have some significant age differences though so idk. Comment what you think but try not to hate please. These are real feelings.

Answer

I’m 25 right now and I can’t imagine what a 25 year old would want with a 17 year old. Completely different stages in your lives. You’re going to want to be young and wild and enjoy your youth and he’s going to want to start setting down. Also I think it’s creepy for him to be 25 and looking at someone under 18.

Answer

Depends. Honestly i was 17 and met my husband. He was 24 . on May 14th we hit 9 years and just had our second child she is now five months old and our oldest is 8. We going thru ups and downs but. It is worth it to us. Just depends on the person you are and the person he is. And what you actually want. We have what we have because we did it together . we are a team. Just depends on the type of person you guys are or willing to be for one another.

Answer

When I was 17 I was with my first boyfriend who was 23 at the time. Honestly in my opinion it just doesn’t work out. Looking back idk what he was thinking being with me when I was so young. He would lie to his friends about my age like he was embarrassed, he would talk to other girls his age behind my back. If you two are meant to be maybe you’ll find eachother when you are older, but for now I’d probably just leave it be

Answer

I started dating my now husband when I was 18 and he was 26. A lot of people said we couldn’t possibly have anything in common and our different life stages would cause problems. His family told him when I went off to college I’d completely change and want to party all the time. My family said he was a perv just looking for a young, dumb girl. Here we are 9 years later, married, with our first baby on the way and our families couldn’t be happier for us. We may be the exception to the rule but your scenario can work. The only issue I have is that you’re still underaged. It may seem silly to wait a year but if he is your perfect guy then he won’t mind waiting.

Answer

He has no business being with a 17yr old in high school. That man is a predator.

Answer

It’s ok to date a 30 year old when you’re 25 . Both adults and in the same stage of life so every thing works out. A 17 year old has not even been out of highschool yet and a 25 year old has a job , probably his own place and a life .  I’ve had older boyfriends when i was younger but looking back i can’t even imagine what they were thinking going out with me
