I am 20 years old and I am working six days per week, part time in McDonald's?

until September when I will be working full time, I work in the kitchen.

My girlfriend is 14 years old but will be 15 in January, she is in high school and I have been with her ever since I were in high school, we have a good relationship together and we are very close to each other, I DON'T have a "single" problem with her, she doesn't have a problem with me either and we love each other.

Now comes my question:

I would just like to know why when I am out with my girlfriend people give me dirty looks constantly?

This type of action really offends me,

Please explain as to why this could be and HONEST answers only

Thank you.

Update:

@ James, what is your problem?! I am NOT retarded.

Thank you for your answers and yes we are good together and I will definitely not be engaging in any kind of intimate activity such as having sex with her until she is at least 16, and I don't mind waiting a year ah=nd a half until she does turn 16 as I really love this girl.

Update 2:

Thank you "Nelson K" for your answer

I wish I could change the public mainstream judgments based on not knowing the person but still judging them e.g. PREjudice.

    5 or 6 years doesn't seem like its far apart until you start talking about teens. Then it's a world of difference. I agree with everyone in thinking that you a bit old for her at the moment. Most people raise their eyebrows at relationships that look wrong because often times there is some form of wrongdoing involved. If your parents are okay with each other, then that's your business. Work it out however, but you need to be careful. Don't act so much like a couple when you're out. One of those stares might lead anonymous police phone call.

    people look down on that because of the fact that you are an adult and she is still technically a child. They don't know about the relationship you have with her and most people judge others only by what they see in front of them. You're not at fault. If her parents are okay with it and you two have strong feelings for each other then it doesn't matter what other people think. There's nothing you can do unless you could change the judgement based mainstream of today's society

    nicely, enable's see. If the youngster did an hour or hour and a nil.5 of chores daily throughout the time of the week, which includes helping sparkling the kitchen, backyard, etc..., then they might deliver mutually 7 a million/2 hours throughout the time of the 5 day week. Now, if the father calls for them to help around the dwelling house 2 to 2 a million/2 hours on Saturday and Sunday with the backyard or dwelling house, that makes 6 hours. finished may well be around thirteen hours of chores a week. i think of that sounds existence like. I do have faith your estimation of sixteen to twenty-5 hours a week is overexaggerated. I see which you notice them having to artwork, which you're actually not required to do, and it sort of feels as though it somewhat is all they do.

    People don't know your background together and will often judge on first sights. What they see is a twenty year old man and a young girl, you can see how they jump to conclusions.

    However, what they think shouldn't matter to you. All that should matter is how you and your girlfriend feel about each other, how your families feel, and what future you hold together. Don't worry about the dirty looks, just be glad you're happy in a secure relationship.

    AS everybody else has pointed out - the age difference is the problem. And why wouldn't it be. I am astonished that her parents even allow her to go out with you. When you are 36 and she is 30 it will be ok but it is NOT ok now.

    This is because you are to old(you are a man, she is a child). IF you are having sex, you are risking going to jail, and lifelong sex registry for the sex.

    Obvious answer would be, because shes 14.

    Buttttt you know that, you are just trolling, or retarded.
