No. She is a minor and the kind just wants sex and use her. That's it. It has 0 to do with just an age gap. She is way too young. There is a high leap between a 14-year-old, 15-year-old, 16-year-old, and 17 years old. 13 and down is a kid. 14 is transitioning. If anything she is probably dating him to get sex and that's it. So naturally, she is not going to listen to you because that is what she wants. So unless you are going to tell her parents and risk your friendship, you may need to find a new friend. Don't get involved too much. It is wrong. That young man is basically almost a legal adult. And you are a great friend for looking out for her. She's too young, but you can bet this is just about sex and more and likely her wanting to lose her virginity. She must know it won't last more and likely.
By law it’s illegal, especially when he turns 18 that will be a no no to most individual, and by most people he will be automatically a pedo a year later and for those who have daughters will also say no, the only persons who might say no are those who are in the same age group or close to that age group, but I’m tired of hearing what age should date who, because dating someone below 16 is automatically illegal and anyone who is over 18 who dates someone under 18 is illegal, but as long as your over 18 it doesn’t matter the age difference, and a guy is 80 and dating a 20 year old he is automatically classified as a sugar daddy and she as a gold. Digger cause no girl truly wants a man after certain age and that’s a lie, love don’t hold age, but I get to understand from personal experience that age is very important cause it’s the most ask questions
It's only three years. I get it that once he hits 18 and she's 15 he'll be an adult dating a minor but it sounds a lot worse than it is the gap is still 3 years I knew a girl in a similar situation back in school and now that she's 23 and he's 26 they are engaged and still going strong.
Don't make a big deal out of it, unless of course there are other reasons why you don't want them dating
It would be okay if she was older than 14. 14 is just a young age to date, and the person who is 17 is going to be 18 soon, then it would be really weird. If she was 18 or something, it'd be okay because then she'd be an adult too. I think it's best to date people within your age range if your a teen, 1 year is okay, I guess, cause that's what my older sister did. 2 years can also be fine, but it depends, same with 3 years. 14 and 17 just sounds really sketchy, but maybe she's really fine with it, I don't really know.

Even if its just 3 years, their maturity is different. he's at the age where he thinks about college and his future, she's at the age where she's thinking about things 14 year old girls think about. She should date someone closer to her age. 15 is fine. Why would i 17 year old guy want a girl 3 years younger than him anyway? Might want to take advantage of her innocence and naiveness, look out for your friend
The age gap is fine, but she should avoid doing anything sexual because she will likely regret it. And since they are both young it is very unlikely to work out. They may develop different long term interests, go to different colleges, and get jobs in totally different locations. And if somehow she ends up pregnant he won't be able to help with it and would most likely leave because he is too young for that kind of responsibility.
They're probably about the same age maturity wise, if she's got a good head on her shoulders? However, 14 is a bit young to be "seriously" dating. The best you can do as her friend is help keep her grounded, and tell her not to have sex with him. It doesn't matter if it's consensual, because in most states, it's still considered statutory rape. If her parents were to find out, they might be very unkind to the boy.
The age gap is not large, but the maturity gap between those ages are. You are talking about an early teen vs. someone who can hold a job, drive and join the military. Also, the body physically matures vastly in those three years.
We have seen lots of people age gap in dating from 10-20 years... but it was successful when they have... kinda build their relationship... and was actually in love wid each other.
I don't think it's a huge problem. But if he goes to college the next year, he might meet girls around 19 and change his mind. They should take things slow for a number of years so she can focus on school.
I'm undecided. But I will admit that when I was that age I thought it was weird. (One of my friends was dating a freshman.)
You have done your part as her friend.
If anything sprouts from their dating. It will be up to them and their families. to deal with.
I mean it happens a lot in school so what is the big deal?
You've told her how you feel, its up to her parents to allow it or not.
It's no big deal for me. They are very close in age.
14 is too young to date.
I don't know I'm not sure
