I have a crush on someone 3 years younger than me?

[Anonymous]

I have a crush on my little brothers friend that's on his baseball team, he's in 7th grade and I'm a sophomore. My brothers baseball team went to myrtle beach for a tournament and we went to the beach and pool a lot, the kid I like was new to the team so i didn't know him at first. We were in the pool and he started talking to me. He pushed me around and messed with me. Like we were in the lazy river one time and he took my legs and put them on his shoulders so I was laying back in front of him and he got on my back all the time and I carried him around the pool and we squeezed eachothers cheeks and stared at each other. We played chicken with other kids, and I got on his shoulders all the time ( he's really strong) I tried really hard not to like him b/c I hate when people date people younger than them. He has a little brother that's like 9 and I kissed him on the cheek one night at dinner and the next day at the pool the 9 year old told me that his brother didn't believe I kissed him so I think they were talking about me maybe. On the last day the boy I like was being mean to me and I was really surprised and hurt. Everyone was saying I liked him so I was avoiding him and we all went home. Today my brother had another game and his ex girlfriend was there that was awkward but he still avoided me! My brother said that the boy said he hated me and that I was ugly but he said all his teammates said that and that they were joking, but I don't know what to do or think.

How old r u both? Anyway i believe he made a request by accident as u said, but still i believe he went mad coz u kissed his bro? Kinda hard 2 believe though coz... he's only 9, so there's no point feelin jelly

he's 12, but I'm pretty sure he's almost 13 and I'm 15

[Klaatu51]

dunno... but i doubt sth will happen between u at least for now, since he's wid his parents... if u r 15, maybe his parents might consider u, old for him

he's dated a girl older than him before and his mom is super cool and she knows me pretty well now, I can't remember if I mentioned his ex in my explanation up there, but she was at one of the games this week and she still likes him so that was pretty awkward lol.

Normally, I'd say this is ok, but honestly, it's a little strange. I mean, you like who you like. But there's laws involved here. By all means, be yourself, but be careful. You don't need a record over it.

thanks, but do you think he likes me?

No no no. That's too much of an age difference at your age. He's too young!

[Asker]

Only one way to really know is to find out for yourself
