My girlfriends parents hate me almost to the point of not letting us see each other anymore They dont even take the chance to get to know me. They barelly know anything about me. Im hated because of my age, we're 4 years apart. I dont know what to do anymore.
what ages are you? Because if it's like 12 and 16, I can't say I blame them. Take the upper road. Give them no reason to be hateful. Treat them with respect and courtesy even if they don't do the same to you.
If she's underage, I can understand how a parent would feel protective of their child. However, it's really sad if you're really serious about this girl, and her parents are shutting you out. I hope as a mother, I don't do that when my children date. I want them to feel free to bring their love interests home, heck, I'd rather them be hanging around at my house and get to know them than have them galavanting all over the place. My husband is four years older than me. We started dating off and on when I was 17 years old, but my parents never really had a problem with it. I guess it depends on the age of your girlfriend... Anyway, I'm sorry you're going through this sweetie. I hope things get better for you and that her parents give you a chance. {{{Hugs}}}
i turned 18 yesterday and shes still 14 i understand its weird that im 18 but not ever wanting to give me a chance getting to know me is frustrating it doesnt even have to do with sex, theres no law against dating
Gotta say that's why they have an issue with it. You might not see anything wrong with the situation, but they will see an older guy trying to take advantage of their little girl. It's natural. Just get her home a little before curfew, be cordial, and show much maturity to them. Kyle
my initial mental reaction: uke: umm... still, treat them with respect, her with the utmost respect, don't make any moves on her for years. I mean, YEARS. The only possible way you can win them over is with the longevity of this relationship. (see, 14 is still a child verging on baby in my head. Hell, in the eyes of the law in Canada, anyone under the age if 18 is classed as an 'infant')
for my friend it is 15 and 18 and causing major problems as said above, be respectful, win thier trust my mom won't let my sister date until she's 16, and I don't blame her and I didn't technically date until 17 (my current age), so I don't see much of a problem with that =P a four year difference isn't too much, but it definently is a lot considering the age of you guys she is still going throguh a lot of maturing, and you are nearing the end of your maturing if you really care about her; hang in there - and if her parents decide to break you guys up - be her friend for a little while, until you can gain their tust and ask her out (after getting their approval) good luck man
why should ya worry about their fucking attitude? just dont mind! Ya are not dating with THEM anyway... The difference is OK... Take it easy.
Why would you want to date a little girl anyway? Your lucky they are not kicking your ass or calling the cops. You are being disrespectful to the family just by carrying on this inappropriate relationship whether you want it to be true or not.
Hmmm, well with her being 14 and you 18, I can understand more why the parents are not at all happy with the two of you dating. I know I wouldn't be too keen on one of my children being involved with an 18 year old at 14. It's funny how, several years down the road, it (your ages) wouldn't be that much of a problem, but right now, it's not a very desirable situation.
It's not that unusual. When I was seventeen I dated a guy that was fifteen for a while. When I was eighteen I dated guys in their late twenties. Also the girl could be getting ready to turn fifteen and he could have just turned 18..... Just a thought....
yeah, a few years difference happens but you're a much more mature person at 18 than you are at 14. That the OP hasn't expressed any understanding of their concern, that it seems like he doesn't understand why they'd be worried about the situation, worries me more than anything else. Even if you don't believe in age boundaries, you need to recognize that most people aren't like that and some caution should be taken, some care and sensitivity along with a boatload of patience.
14 will get you 20--years that is, most states it's a case of statutory rape if you sleep with her! If I were you I'd get someone of legal age of consent and that is 18. It's safer and it's legal and won't involve jail time! Be careful! You're dealing with a minor, and the cops frown on such a thing, you could be considered a sexual predator/offender/pedophile! And you could do jail time if her parents complain to the cops. I would end this relationship and find somebody of legal age of consent! Bustramp
i had a hommie who was with a thirteen year old chick at the age of eighteen. we mocked him about it, but he didnt care. respect. when you two are in your twentees your relationship wont look too strange. you will be 24 and she will be 20. cool? that is not so bad.
14...ummmm...why would you date a 14 year old anyway? she msut be well..underdeveloped no? jsut curious...
