Age Gap:17-29
(Age: 17)
I am dating a guy who is much older than me...he's 29.
I really do love him but I can't get the same feelings
from him. Sometimes I think he loves me because he will
talk about us being together forever but then he won't
call or talk to me for long periods of time. Is he using
me or is he just trying to play it safe until I turn 18?
ADVISOR REPLIES:
Well, although there's an age difference of 12 years, some couple have a
longer age gaps so he might be the one for you...I think he is trying to
play it safe until you are 18, and I think that it is great that he is.
But you said that he doesn't talk to you for a long period of time?
Communication is the key to a relationship you know...It sounds as if
he's using you to 'get some' when you're 18, but he saids he loves you,
and you guyz are going to be a 'forever'...maybe he's just saying that to
keep you until you're legal...or maybe not. Maybe he really loves you,
and his words are for real. I say to give it a shot! All the best!-Stephanie
First of all, you really need to be careful because in your state, what
you are doing is most likely illegal. He might be playing it safe but
then he might be having an affair. Have you ever thought about why he
would want to go out with a 17 year old when he can get plenty of girls
his age? Think about because he might be cheating on you. I hope it
works out though.-

This sounds like this dude is using you. This age gap will break you two up if you don't break the relationship first. I say this because you both are leading different lifestyles. For instance, you are probably in high school or college and he is probably involved with a job and is more settled. If I were you, I would dump this guy in a flash.
