#Help #Crush #AgeDifference #Teenagers #Relationships
Hey there! So you’ve found out that your crush is actually 13 years old while you’re 16, and you’re feeling confused and unsure about what to do next. Don’t worry, I’ve got some advice for you on how to navigate this situation.
### Assessing the Age Difference
First off, let’s talk about the age gap between you and your crush. It’s completely normal to feel a bit shocked and even embarrassed when you realize that the person you have feelings for is significantly younger than you. In your case, the three-year age difference may seem like a big deal right now, especially considering that you’re both teenagers at different stages of development.
### Understanding Maturity Levels
One thing to keep in mind when it comes to relationships, especially at a young age, is the importance of maturity. While physical attraction can play a role in initial feelings, emotional and mental maturity are crucial for a healthy and balanced relationship. At 16, you may find that you are in a different place emotionally and mentally compared to a 13-year-old.
### Considering Social Norms
It’s also worth considering societal norms and expectations when it comes to age differences in relationships. While age gaps are common in many relationships, especially as people get older, there can be different viewpoints when it comes to teenagers. It’s important to be mindful of how others may perceive your relationship and to consider how your families may react to the age difference.
### Communication is Key
In any relationship, communication is key. If you still have feelings for your crush and want to explore a potential relationship, it’s important to have an open and honest conversation with them. Discuss your concerns about the age difference, talk about your feelings, and see how they feel about the situation. Remember, communication is a two-way street, so be prepared to listen to their perspective as well.
### Seeking Advice and Support
If you’re feeling overwhelmed or unsure about what to do next, don’t hesitate to seek advice and support from trusted friends, family members, or even a counselor. Talking to someone you trust can help you gain perspective on the situation and make a decision that feels right for you.
### Final Thoughts
Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to pursue a relationship with your crush is up to you. Take the time to reflect on your feelings, consider the implications of the age difference, and communicate openly with your crush. Remember, it’s important to prioritize your own well-being and happiness in any romantic situation.
I hope this advice helps you navigate this challenging situation. Good luck! 🌟
it is fate
🚔🚔
We are the same age, I’m also an 07 line kid
Well, it’s not your fault, don’t feel bad, nowadays teenagers between 13 and 14 years old either look like babies or they look middle-aged.
13 and 16 at this stage of life is a huge difference, I don’t recommend dating
G-d’s sake it’s a 3 year difference, it could be much worse
nonce lol
Yikes…..
pedophile alert 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨
Bruh I turned 14 last Friday, and I’m 186 cm, deep voice huge hands and hella hairy.
There are many bigfoots in here..
Game is game 💪
Def awkward. Obviously you can’t get involved with him but that doesn’t mean you can’t be friends or do whatever you have to do together. I’m sure there are lots more boys your age who would love to be in his place. Good luck! Your feeling for him will fade. I’d Love to know what happens!
annndd another reason for my transition, lol
Damn I need some of what he’s on to be like that a 13 😭. Guys a year younger than me in my school fit that description and I’d think they’re year 11s otherwise lol
dude 2010 kids are rizzing now😭 where’d all the mf time go
Reminds me of how I (M16) recently learned that someone in MY theatre group whom I have a slight crush on (mostly because of her talent but still) was 13 lol. Funny coincidence
Gotta preorder him ig 💀💀
You could always pre order and wait until he turns 17/18 , you will on your 20/21
Are we the same person?
I am stage managing a show right now and the guy playing the lead i always thought was kinda hot. i talk to him one day and ask how old he is and he said he’s 13 (im 16) and i was baffled. i dont wanna be a sophomore dating an 8th grader.
us theatre kids have barely anything to work with 😭
i was also born in december 2007 lol
Methinks you haven’t seen many 19 yos
Hold on. You thought you two could have worked if he was 19. That’s a three year age difference. He’s 13….. that’s still a three year age difference sweetie
That’s about really all you can do.
I know ther are some really hot or cute younger boys in my school too and I think to myself….damn too bad. He’s gonna be a hottie lol
Oh well
Exactly. Well I didn’t mean to take up your time. I’m new on this app and was just looking for a little advice on an awesome but funny situation. I tried the advice rooms but nobody answered. Guess I’ll keep looking
and?
This reminds me of when I had a crush on a girl who i thought was my age. (I’m 17) she was 9 but she looked so cute and game is game. It’s tough because I see her at family reunions all the time.
Nah for real bruh, these kids be looking OLD these days. I’m lucky my little brother (10) still looks his age but nah at my school all these kids be looking older than me 😭🙏
You said he seemed mature and the only moment where he didn’t was literally in your presumptions on age AFTER you found out he was 13 so far it just seems like any maturity issue might be on your side but as for what to do: well it is still legal for you two to date (assuming the US) so I guess you could date as long as you don’t do anything physical and outside of that any real issue would probably be typical relationship stuff
I knew a 14 year old guy who dated a 17 year old girl, no one thought it was disgusting. A lot of the guys were jealous and some of the girls thought it was cute always saying “Oh look there goes (insert male name here) and (insert female name here), oh ma gosh look at em they are so cuuuttee!!” really mushy stuff. If you like him you should just try and say it to him, you never know the response you’ll get.
3 years ain’t a big deal when your like 20 and 17… just be cool and stay friends…maybe in a few years it will work out
Damn that’s awkward.
Well my great great grandmother was 18 years younger than my great great grandfather so it’s all good.
Meh, I can see that happening
nothing wrong with liking people younger than you, if they are physically attractive. Although I would be more concerned if he found out you had a crush on him. that would creep me out at that age personally.
Do you have a minecraft YouTube channel by any chance?
I don’t get these dumb ahh posts, find someone else to like dawg, she to young end of story
It happens. It’s always important to get someone’s age before you get to know them. It helps you gauge what you and them can want out of the relationship.
It happened recently that a 16 yr old girl was flirting with me and I asked how old she was, said she was 16. I then had to persuade her that it was not okay for me to date her. Luckily only really happened once.
Though I’ve been told by my 13 yr old sister that her friends have crushes on me. Haven’t experienced anything more awkward than being someone’s middle school crush while being 6 or more years older than them.
3 years and difference is not that bad
Bruh I’m 18 and the boys I go to school with look like young adults at like 15-17 but fucking 13????? Puberty hit that boy way too early jesus
I swear bro I can’t tell what age anybody is, 13 year olds are looking 20 and 18 year olds are looking 12 WHO KNOWS ANYMORE
Girlypop as a guy who just turned 20, if you thought he couldve been 19 you have no idea what 19 looks like lol
Yall look like babies to us its pretty jarring
🚔🚨🚔🫵
Are you perhaps a Minecraft YouTuber?
Don’t date unless you wanna be called the groomer 😭
Play the long game if he’s the one 🤷♀️
You are cooked
Wild 😭
