Is a 7 year age difference really okay...?

We've been talking and flirting for about 3 months now...

I just turned 21, and she just turned 14...

I told her I loved her on valentines day, and she said it back... (I could tell we both wanted to say it earlier though*) The only thing that really aggravates me is that my parents kinda know we got a little thing going on, but she on the other hand keeps me a secret from even her bestest of friends.

I don't know what to call us... we're more than friends, but we're not bf/gf either.

I know it's technically illegal, but we haven't had sex yet, nor will we ever anytime soon.

I mean, we haven't even kissed yet... but... we talk everyday, say ILY all the time, and give plenty of virtual hugs... but even being in love with her makes me feel like a total pedobear sometimes... :S

I know I should follow my heart, but... I also want second opinions... tell me your thoughts, and don't be afraid to hit me with a painful slap of reality and hurt my feelings. I'm used to it*

    well in my opinion i think age doesn't really matter to be honest. all that matters is that you love each other. ignore the people that say mean things. they are probably jealous. you just have to be more confident. just get on with your life, just ask her out! you love each other that's the main thing. age shouldn't matter. good luck! hope i helped! :)

    I know someone who is twelve and is dating an eighteen-year-old openly. They've been together for a year or so now, and everyone seems to think the six year age difference is alright.

    It may seem like a large age gap now, but in a few years time, she'll be 20 and you'll be 27 and the difference will seem much more normal.

    If it makes you feel like a pedobear, then maybe you should put off dating until she is 16 - 16 and 23 seems slightly more acceptable, right? (=

    It's not okay. Don't do this to her. Tell her that you are an adult and she is just a teenager. How can that work. It's going to cause tons of problems. Think about the future with this girl. When you take her to your parents and they ask her age.. come on this is common sense. Tell her that you are to young and that she is beautiful and leave her.

    joshy i think it is ur 1st relationship and so is of the girl( not technically upto now)..... well it looks like u r confused wat to do. and she is also not giving recognition to the relationship( which girls generally do if they love u) nor telling to his friends( another red signal). so i think she just want to experience the thrill of being in a relationship( which she is getting from u). seriously i think it wont last..... give the girl what she wants from this relationship and u take ur share and u both move separate ways
