Im 21,she's 15. No sex,long dist rel,both mature. Have strong feelings 4each other,same life goals,what 2 do?

I'm 21, she's 15. We met in a chat room and hit it off instantly and been talking almost 1 year and we have really gotten to know each other. We share much in common; sports, life goals, demeanor, etc... We just sit and chat at night, often spending 5 or more hours together talking about anything. We both know we're still growing, but really want to remain together, or close (i.e. close friends/casual dating, and no sex cuz of laws). We're willing to wait and see. Personally, I cant describe the feeling i get when im around her. No,it isnt down there, its in my heart, in my chest. Whenever I am around her, it's a rush, an exhiliration over listening to her, talking to her, etc... She says she feels the same. I want her to be happy, yet she says she is with me, but I know that she's just 15, a teenager. I remember what it was like at that age. What do we do? What do I do?

All I can say is that if you really care about her, and if you really care about your freedom keep it at friends until she's 18. No girl is worth doing time. My best friend was 21 and dated a 15 yr old and he landed himself in prison for 4 yrs but he got lucky he could have gotten 15-life. Yes it can be that serious. Girls change from 15 to 18. When I was 15 I met a guy in a chat room, we talked until I was 18 I finally flew out and met him and we were together and I thought we hit it off, but after i got home I never heard from him again. Keep something else in mind, you don't actually have to sleep with her to get in trouble for it. All someone has to do is insinuate that you did and you can still go down for it. so it's best to avoid ever putting yourself in the situation that someone could assume anything. If you hang out with her make sure there are always other people there. And if her parents forbid it respect their wishes they are capable of bringing you down if there is any I mean ANY thing against you at all. Even just emails that they don't consider appropriate. Treat the situation with care. And I only say this because my friend let his emotions and his "love" get in the way of his brain and he lost 4 yrs of his life and even more because now he has to register as a sex offender. I don't like to see that happen to people. The law is ridiculous but it's the law and I hate to see anyone go through what my friend is going through. I don't think that statutory laws should be the same as child molesters but it is and it sucks so don't get yourself sucked into it. Good luck!

One more thing. Keep in mind that even if her parents seem cool still don't go there. It doesn't have to be a parent to press charges anyone can do it. Including the state if for some reason it came up at school with her friends and a teacher over heard, you can get busted by anyone. And not just for anything done in person but also emails and phone calls. Just watch your back!! If you really care about her and it's not about sex then you should have no problem keeping things innocent and NEVER put yourself into a situation where anyone can assume you did something even if you didn't.

You should just wait. You need to tell her this too. Tell her that to prove that this love is real if you wait it wouldnt make a difference.

If the government caught up on whats going on you wont end up being together. You'll end up in jail/prison and she'll end up with no one.

Dude forget about it and move on. You are on the edge here of getting into some deep s h i t

well if you really love each other you must wait until she turn 18 s0 that you'll have no problems....

Wait and see. Take each day as it comes!

Just be there for her and do your best in being yourself.

I don't know your exact situation. I started dating my bf when I was 15 and he was 20. Now im 19 and hes 24 and we're still together. People have always given us **** tho, but it seems like the older we get the less they care because the difference ratio is less. Waiting is hard when it comes to laws. But its really not THAT long. 16 is the age of consent right? I wish you guys the best of luck.

Age is not a problem when she's over 18, but since she's still 15...well, probably it is better for you guys to keep in touch and wait at least 3 more years before trying to get any serious relationship. I date a girl that is 7 years younger then me and its great!

i think you can get better than a 15 year old.

As long as you keep it platonic until she turns 18 and your not manipulating her because your older I see no problem. However if I was her father there is no way in hell or earth youd be talking to her online or anywhere else. If I was your father Id be telling you youre asking for trouble. Society frowns on what youre doing for a reason.
Keep any kind of romance or sex talk out of the conversation and do not ask her to do anything that would cause a problem between her and her family. Always remember she is a minor.

leave her alone until she's 18. if you both still feel the same then resume the relationship. my husband is 6 years older than me, but i can't imagine dating him when i was 15. we met in college. high school life and interests are too different from a 21 year old.
