why is everyone so concerned about age when its on a romantic level? i mean, age is just a way of separating legal from illegal, but who is the government to decide when we are ready for life...huh?age is lame, its just a security form. if you like some one for who they are and wanna take what you have to the next level, you should be able to

Agree to disagree...

You're debating about two different things. Your feelings to not hold up in th court of law. 'But I love her' isn't going to make a judge swing that gavel in your favor. The fact is taht on the books if you are under 18 and have been chaste then you are minor when it comes to sexual relations. If you are 16 or older and have been unchaste then by law, in Massachusetts, you're legal. The facts are the facts. Jail time is not something to 'Go For'. If you are takling about just loving someone then yes, love them by all means. But do not try and tell me that a 60 year old and a 12 year old should be condoned under the law as it once was in the past. That is just wrong in my opinion. ;)

im not exactly talking about a 60 year old and a 12 year old...thats wierd. but i think htat its ok for up to 5 or 6 years apart. and, i understand if law keeps anything from happening, but people whould at least admit how they feel, and law often keeps people from admitting that as well.....who is this by the way? :)

When I was 14, I had a relationship with a guy who was 21. Later, I felt bad about some of the stuff that happened, partly because it wasn't a relationship of equals really. I'm now dating someone with whom I have a larger age difference than that, so I'm totally not saying that it's impossible -- just that I think that's one thing people worry about, particularly when the pressure of expectation has to do with sex.

well, thats exactly it, you shouldnt go into something if you know some one is only in it for sex and such. you should go into it becaus eyou care about the, and know that they wont force you to do anything. and , if they do, you should be willing to either do something about it, or know that you made the decision, and that it was a possible consequence. but how are you? i havetn talked to you in forever!

Well, it was someone who I loved and who loved me -- or at least, it certainly felt that way at the time :) And I didn't feel coerced at the time. But years later, I looked back at it and realized that I had said yes to things I didn't necessarily want, mostly because I was having a rough time and was so glad that *someone* loved me that I was willing to do a lot of things to keep that.

I'm busy, but good. New job, new apartment -- lots of changes! And you? :)
