Do you think a 23 year old guy would date a 17 year old girl?

Wait until your eighteen. This actually might be perfect. Get to know this guy, spend more time with him, and learn who he really is.

And then maybe, when you are eighteen, you both can mutually decide if their is chemistry--physical, emotional, etc., between the two of you. I met my current boyfriend a while ago and he is twenty eight while I am YEARS younger than him. At first there was a huge physical atttraction/chemistry but how is someone who is twenty eight who has been married with three kids going to connect with someone who is years younger than him?

Plus, we were long distance. So we talked on the phone for a month trying to get to know each other without jumping into something that wasn't going to work, especially if it was just physical. So we talked about deeper, more meaningful things.

We began to know each other's character and moral values and that is going to make a relationship stronger. And the next time I saw him was a month after I met him, and I knew he was the one. So through that whole thing------my advice to you is to wait and just to get to know him.

I know it's hard--trust me I do, but what else can you do? Wouldn't you rather wait and try to get to know him as a friend and to build something stronger than it be all or nothing? Good luck and best wishes :-).

He just might just be scared of the legal aspects of it, and hopefully from what you said he's just not looking for a one night stand and just leading you on. If he has feelings developed other than just physical wants, then you should ask him to look past the whole age thing. I'm 20 and I'm dating someone who's 17, we were freaked out about the age thing but soon forgot about it.

As long as your happy, go for it.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
