._. That's creepy. What does an 18 year old see in a 13 year old? He might as well be baby sitting.

ONLY if you have sex. it is legal to date someone 18+ if you are a minor as long as your are not having sex. HE will go to jail even if they both agreed. my boyfrend is almost 18 and i checked into it.

NO. At 13 you should not date an 18 year old. It is not legal and will cause alot of problems for everyone around them.

No, that's like babysitting. And it's illegal. He's a legal adult while the 13 year old is only in its first year of being a teen.

i do agree age is just a number but sometimes in relationships you have to do a reality check meaning yah age is just a number but what about if you get married one day he will be old enough but he has to wait for you to get old enough same thing with kids, driving, jobs. And i dont know how often you see him or anything but that might almost impact if you go to school and he will be out of school

I didn't know it was illegal...
If you love him (and you won't get in trouble with the law), then who am I or anyone else to tell you that you can't? You control yourself. Other people can't tell you who not to love/date...

If you are 13 and he is 18, he can literally go to jail for going out with you. The reason this is a law is because at 18, he's an adult, and adults are really good at manipulating younger teenagers and messing with their heads and taking advantage of them. I'm sure you like this person a lot to even be considering it, but it's easy to have feelings for someone that much older, and it's not fair to either of you to be in a relationship with each other because of the age difference. If it is meant to be you can wait five years.

Wait wait I just turned 18 and I'm asking my crush out who is 17, I'm an adult she's a minor so how is that not illegal?? But yes that age difference is not only creepy but a felony. Both have to be adults for age differences not to matter like 20 and 25.

I am a freshman (14) and my boyfriend is a senior (17 turning 18 in 2 months) and yes it is perfectly legal if you are not having sex. even if you allow him to do ANYTHING it is considered statutory rape. It is weird and creepy yes. In my situation we are both in Marching Band so its all happy. but depending on your sitation that could be really creepy. When my boyfriend asked me out he made it clear that he did not want sex. ALSO your parents need to be okay with it. No relationship should be kept from your parents. so basically...
1. if your parents are okay
2. if he is immature
3. if he promises he isnt going to have sex with you

IT IS NOT ILLEGAL TO DATE SOMEONE 18+ IF YOU ARE A MINOR! but sex IS a felony and even if you both agree to it... he will still go to jail. (4 years apart is the limit)

Its not illegal, depending on where u live, but I think that usually when a 13 yo is dating a 18 yo it usually doesn't end up we'll. I'm just saying if u really like that person then go for it. But if u have the slightest doubts, then my advice is dont do it

If the 18 year old is a guy he's just using you. That's also a major age difference, and if you live in the U.S. don't do anything ... questionable. If you guys have any sexual intercourse or anything against the law that can result in jail time. It sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.

Look i realize that you may like him, I've been there before. Older guys just seem cooler, but I think that at your age difference it's safer if you don't date. I mean you can't do anything and have it be legal anyways. When I was your age I dated a 21 year old, but truth be told he just wanted one thing and I ended up hurt. I don't want you to go through what i did.
