Today, I found out that the guy I've been crushing on for months is actually 15 years old. I'm 22. Not only is it gross, but it's also illegal. FML

Age is just a number and jail is just a room.

I remember being in 8th grade and there were 6ft tall students with full beards. sometimes people bloom early, just move on OP. plenty more dudes out there.

As long as you did nothing sexual, no rules are broken, right? No worries!

Go get em! as long as youre femqle he will be stoked

You are legally allowed to date, but no sex, hand holding or kissing.

It won't be gross, or illegal, in 5-10 years

you can be together, it's only illegal if you're having sex. just wait 3 years and then he'll be of legal age.

At least you found out before you took the plunge.

Where exactly did you meet each other?

That's not that bad. I was 16 with a 24 year old. Just keep it secret. Keep it safe.

Yeah, it is that bad. A 15 year old and a 22 year old are not on the same mental level. I myself dated a 24 year old when I was 17 and even though I was pretty mature and aware for my age, the power structure was definitely in his favor because of how much older he was than me. It was not equal as it should be and it really can never be with a young teenager and an adult. Not to mention it's really creepy to encourage people to date underage teens and keep it secret...

This isn't the ring of power...it's about not doing anything to get arrested.
