13 year old girl dating an 18 year old guy?

So I"m 13 and I'm dating this guy, he's 18. We see eachother as bf-gf but its not official yet cuz he lives on the other side of the country); He is like super patient and kind. He would never make me do something I'm not ready to do. He treats me like a princess and he's always there for me. My dad commited suicide couple of weeks ago and my guy was there for me the whole time and made me happy again cuz I was in shock and seeing doctors and taking medicines all the time. So he really is perfect for me. What do you think about this relationship 13-18? Btw my mother doesn't know about him. If I tell her she is gonna make me stop seeing him.

    The age gap itself isn't huge, and there are many adults in very happy relationships with a 5 year age gap, however, would wait a while until you are older before getting too involved. Its unusual at this age, 13 and 18 to have much in common because you're on different sides of puberty. Your interests and maturity are likely to be more different than a 30 year old and a 35 year old. If he is a genuinely good person and always there, I would ask him to remain a close friend until you are say, 16, when you will be more mature. You also have many important things to go through, at school etc. You don't want to be too distracted.

    It seems a bit awkward to me but as long as he treats you like you describe. Just know that there is a law that if parents do not agree for their child (under18) to date an older person the boyfriend can go to jail and it would stay in his record. Also I'm not trying to get ideas into your head, but be aware that 18 year olds have more privileges than a younger person such as partying in a club. They can possibly meet someone there or do something without letting you know. Never let him force you into doing things you don't want. And about your mom, put her to a fake test. Tell her that you have a "friend" around your age who is dating an 18 year old. Your "friend" is happy with her boyfriend as he is with her.Bit she is afraid to tell her parents and what advice she recommends for you tell your "friend".You get to know her thoughts. Just don't let anything else slip up otherwise she will begin questioning herself.

    The fact that you know your mother would not approve, tells me that you know it's wrong!

    A 13 AND 18 YEAR OLD IS STATUTORY RAPE!!!! YOU'RE JUST A CHILD, AND HE IS TAKING FULL ADVANTAGE.
