A year ago, I liked a 16-year-old boy. I didn’t date him nor say I liked him for obvious reasons (I was freshly 19.)
I’ve been looking for girls to experiment with to explore my bisexuality and get over my attraction to men, and there’s this one friend I have online. Not going to lie, she’s hot. But… she’s 17 and a junior in high school. I’ll be 20 in April.
Do I risk ruining the friendship and possibly have something more if she says yes (and finally see if I like women) or get over it?
Our years of birth would be 2005 for me and 2007-08 for her.
I’ve heard 17 and 19 is alright though, and that’s the age I am now! Besides, it may not be anything serious.
Just a reminder that breaking the law isn’t ideal here. The laws that are there are there for a reason. My high school was full of instances where individuals who were seniors were with freshmans. And then the seniors turned 18, as time tends to do with people. They had to wait things out with some of the “pillars” (if you could call them that) of the kind of thing they were looking for. Where I live, there is no equivalent to the “Romeo and Juliet law”, the kind of law that might calibrate (perhaps overly so, or not in a good way) this kind of thing. Which some will say or point out is for the best. Whatever you do, I’d encourage you look up your laws to get an idea on this and how they map out the specifics. Can you settle for something that doesn’t clash with these? Yes? Good, settle for that. Some things can wait, my friend.
