so over the summer, i went to this camp.
and i left liking this guy.
i'm 17, and the guy i like is 6 years older than me (23). He was a counselor at the camp, and he and I talked and stuff.
I dont know if i should tell him that I like him. Cause I cant stop thinking about him.
I dont know if it would be a good idea, cause i am planning on going back to the camp next year, and he will be a counselor there again.
So should I tell him now? Or wait a year, tell him, and when camp ends never see him again. or should i just not tell him???

Would it be frowned upon? 23 and 17 year olds together?

Agreed... I wonder if her parents are ever gonna find out. All these parents have lost their bond with their children, if they didn't we wouldn't be having little kids acting like adults.

And this guy is risking "alot", people most likely think they're father and daughter just from the huge age/maturity/physical development difference.

Actually, sometimes the maturity level is pretty close despite the age gap. And the "physical development difference" isn't really that much at times.. it all depends on the people. You can't group all relationships like that.

Me and my boyfriend also have a huge age difference, but my parents have met him and they like him :) Don't assume things..

SWEEBISH, I agree... It's not always right, but sometimes it doesn't matter... just like any relationship no matter what the age difference is. Although, I don't think you should worry about it if he won't see you for a striaght year... another thing, if he's 24 years old, and you make it sound like he doesn't have a car to come see you or visit you.

I don't know, but that's not a very good sign... >.> If I was a girl, I wouldn't want to be in a relationship with someone who wouldn't be able to take care of me if things did work out... if he doesn't drive or have a car by the time he's 24 chances are that he's either got a good reason, or he's just a hobo... >.>

Ages Sex and Rape in the US:

If you are 16 years of age or younger: You or your parents have the ability to decide whether you are raped or not. The guy (If 18 or older) pretty much has no say in what happens if charges are pressed and it is found that he is guilty of have any unwanted sexual intercourse with you.

If you are 17 years of age: You have the ability to decide whether you are being raped or not. Your parents don't have a say anymore, and you are considered to have the ability to know (by law). The guy (If 18 or older) still has no real say if charges are pressed and it is found that he is guilty of have any unwanted sexual intercourse with you.

If you are 18 years of age: You have the ability to decide, but the guy has the ability to really fight you in court if you are making "false accusations". He is now innocent until proven guilty even if he has had sexual contact with you.

Is that directed to me? o.O Because it doesn't make any sense if it is.
