jecht Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 i met this girl i like but shes in gr 7 i'm in gr 9 is this an ok age difference Link to comment
caramellabacix Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 So she's about 12 or 13, and you're 14 or 15, correct? It doesn't seem like it's such a big deal, I've seen bigger age gaps work, even in highschool. If, however, you feel uneasy about the age difference, than maybe you should consider staying friends with her for a little while. But in my opinion, if you can make it work with her, than the age difference is no big deal. Link to comment
sweetpea4670 Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 Usually, tyour age difference is nothing since its just a few years, but I would be careful only because the maturity level (typically) of person in middle school is far different from that of someone in high school (even jsut from 7th grade to 9th grade). That might not be the case in your situation, but I'd just be aware of the social differences. A person changes SO drastically between 7th grade to 9th grade. Think of yourself back when you were 12 or 13. The age difference between (for example) a 26 and a 28 year old may not make such a difference, but in the teenage years, people seem to grow exponentially in maturity. Good luck, though, I hope it works out!(-: Link to comment
Ontario Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 you're somewhat not alone. I also date a seventh grader. Difference? I'm a junior. Link to comment
boredguy Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 sweetpea4670 brings up a really good point. in the teenage years the maturity of a person changes drastically. people change, this time in their lives, they want to learn about who they are and what they can be. but if u feel that through all this u can make it work, then by all means go for it. its jus something to ponder.

TrueHeart Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 Its really not that big of a deal, depending on how serious you get. The pre-teen and teenage years ARE a difficult time to gauge HOW things will pan out. There is an aweful lot of maturing that happens in those years than the ones in high-school, college and later persay. Just take your time with this one, don't move too fast.. Link to comment
