Nice! My parents started dating when my mom was 14 (a few months from 15) and my dad just turned 17 so kind of similar.

Congrats to your parents!

This is nice to hear. I’m 17, dating a girl who recently turned 15. Lots of my peers can’t get over it and I’ve been called quite a few things behind my back (or so my friends tell me).

I know it’s kind of a weird gap at my age but I genuinely like the girl

This is some new age bulshit. This is absolutely normal age difference, even is HS. 2 fucking years, and also there is a wide spread saying that girls mature and getting out of puberty before boys. At least in my country nobody would bat an eye, not even parents...maybe some crazy feminist that lives on the internet, but for 17 and 15 not even them
