Well sorry but today's society views this to be wrong. I do not know what the laws are in England but you can be arrested here in the US for statutory rape. Find a girl your own age, when the time comes for you both when she is her 20s and you both are available, then go ahead and try but right now, its wrong.
For a man at the age of 20 to be attracted to a young girl, well, you need some growing up as well it seems.

I just don't see the point of putting a title on it.
Your giving the impression you are trying to talk yourself into it. Making me think it is at least a bit against your morals. But at 20, you are going to seem desperate, you have to think about how it might effect her in the long run, and still think you aren't gaining anything by making something official out of it other than maybe being afraid she will fall for someone else.
No offense intended but at 20 I think most of us still had more to learn.
I stand firm on saying give it two years or so.
But I don't think this thread is gonna effect the outcome.
Bestof luck,
Chris

Well, 'Wrong' is pretty arbitrary. 'Illegal' is more accurate.
Anyway, the going rule is, the youngest person you should date is (Your Age / 2) + 7. So at 20, divide that by two (You get 10) then add 7 for 17. While I won't say whether it's wrong or not because there are no hard and fast rules, you may find that dating someone that much younger will have problems other than appearances. You're at a totally different stage of life than her - it's gonna be hard to relate to each other.

...This is an odd topic to see on a corn snake forum...
I think that's all I have to say, since the answer has been clearly said.

Thats coming from a 15 year old...

In the UK the term statutory rape is applied when a girl under 13 gets 'carried away' with a lad - even if she consented.
To the best of my knowledge there is no law that will stop a 15 and a 20 year old holding hands and going to the pictures together. As long as they don't get 'carried away' (wish I could think of a better phrase...) they aren't breaking the law.

Hey, don't dis the 15 year old! 87.6% of all 15 year olds agree that it is perfectly acceptable to engage in sexual behavior, drink alcohol, experiment with drugs and drive without a license. The other 12.4% didn't understand the question(s). :sidestep:

Actually, I am going to have to disagree with you on this.
You can give your opinion because I would find it interesting since you are close to that age group, be it a few years from now.
I personally do not think its right, but some one your age might think well it might be acceptable or creepy. Where do you fall in?
But you are correct, it is an odd topic.

No, not really. We all went through it. The numbers aren't real, they're in jest . . . basically saying that any 15 year old is going to say they're """mature""" enough for adult decisions. What it really states is that a 15 year old is NOT """mature""" enough to engage in an intimate relationship with a 20 year old. Sex or no-sex, the relationship the OP asked about is meant to be intimate. Sad really that 20 year old can't find, or cultivate, a mature relationship with someone their own age . . . why not swing the other way . . . 25?!

Ok, here's my opinion:
The law (in the UK) says it's ok, but today's society doesn't think so, and I agree with the society. I would never think it's alright for a teenager to "go out" with a man in his 20's. I kind of would expect a guy to know that you, if you like someone that is younger, to wait until that person is old enough. Who know what could go on... to say the least.
Thanks for being nice, btw.
In my opinion, age is a number, after you turn 18. I was 19 when I hooked up with my now husband, at the time he was 34. We now he 2 wonderful kids. But here's the thing if you really do care for her wait to be anything more to her then a friend until she is at least 18. If you REALLY respect her, your friend and her parents, you will do that for her. I'm with a man that is 15 years older then me. But he was willing to wait for me to be old enough to be with. He knew that if it was ment to be it would happen.

Im glad this subject was brought up. Im turning 22 on May 19 2008. My woman is turning 26 on July 19 2008. Honestly, we get weirded out when ppl ask our ages but as long as I continue being mature, she's fine with the whole situation. Age doesn't define what's acceptable, but the level of maturity does. Understanding that the other person has more or less experience in life and being able to find a median to that. My situation is difficult because my woman is already looking forward for a family at her age and I'm still not capable of providing salary for a family until I finish college. I just got to get my behind to work a little bit harder I guess. In a 15 year old with a 20 year old case, I honestly don't see it working. I believe that it will be a struggle trying to keep that relationship going. Someone might just walk away with a broken heart.

No snakes in ROI eh?
im still a young lad in my head n most of the girls i hang with are 18/19 and are "mature" but ive seen them enter into some immature situations...if they do it now a fifteen yr old is none the wiser. You said nothing was going to happen till she was legal so whats the difference in just being friends till she is older nothings goin to happen anyway like you said so its no different.my gf was fifteen wen we started goin out n i was 17 ...im 19 now n shes 18 in 3 months..she was mature then but shes a lot more wiser now that shes older those 2 years really do make a difference in a persons personality and maturity. just my 2 cents mate i wouldnt hold it against u mate if you wer to date ....just behave
I couldn't agree more.

Ok, I was not going to tell this story but I guess I might as well.
A friend and I were really close, I was 14 he was 19. My mom and dad loved him, his parents loved me. We got along perfectly and thought that we were ment to be together. We tossed around the idea of hooking up but in the end we decided to wait. We told each other that if we were both single when I turned 18 we would try it out. 4 years did not seem to be that long, just all of my high school years. We stayed really close friends and when I turned 16 he decided that he was going to join the Air Force. On my 18th birthday he called me, I felt so many feelings over well me in just a few short moments but I was taken. I had found someone that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. Sometimes you just know but if you have doubts and think that you should wait it's not right. She is not the one. He ended up having a girl friend as well and was very happy with her. We talked for about an hour and we both decided that we were just ment to be the best of friends and thats what we are. He is NJ enjoying himself and I'm in VA living my life. I know that if we had tied ourselves down when we first wanted to he would not have joined the Air Force and it's something he now loves. I can't be happier with my life and I sill have a great friend.
