What are your thoughts on a highschool senior and freshman being a couple?

There are no rules that say you can not be an item.  If you like each other then go with your feelings. Some relationships last and some will not.  It dosent matter if your the same age or not.  Take things slow and see.  Good Luck!

unless your a minor, why not? i had a bf 15 years my senior and even after we broke up, he became such a good friend, maybe because of his wisdom and emotional stability. but really, i don't think it has anything to do with age. a lot of old men can still be so stupid and immature and there are some younger men who are ahead of their years. bottomline, it would be how much you like him and how much he likes you back and how good you are together and how good you make each other feel.

one of the girls I went to high school with had a very similar relationship--they are still married today, more than 15 years later. Love comes wherever you find it--I wish you luck

I think once you graduate from college a 3 year age difference is irrelevant.  But at the age you are (a freshman in high school) 3 years can be a world of difference.  Not only that, but next year when you are a sophomore in high school, she will be a freshman in college.  Totally different world.  If anything I would only recommend a friendship for now, nothing more.  It will just mean a lot of heart ache down the road.  Especially when your parents are tell you to go to bed at 11:00pm and she is staying out until 1:00am and getting up for class at 10:00am.

nooooo. the student may be living out a high school fantasy by pursuing you, it is doubtful they are mature enough to be in a relationship with someone 10 years older for awhile. It seems a bit unethical to me as well.

well on one hand you do have a point but think about it, if her bf is a junior and she's a freshman dont you think that they should go? because if they stay together for a real long time he will graduate and by the time she's a junior he wont be around to go with her to her ball so let her enjoy it now when she's with him she deserves to have fun too. and your friend will probably ask her to go with him if he's going because its his gf and I'm sure he would like to spend more time with her and he probably thinks that this is a romantic way for them to get closer and deeper in the relationship he's not gonna ask someone else to go with him if he has his gf and I'm sure he likes her enough to take her is he's going.

Possible, I think yes. \nIf you are in middle school, I would wait around, date around in high school, stay friends with the person, and if it is meant to be it will come about when you are much older (like 16 or 17, or even when you go to college, which is when a lot of unusual and good things happen).\n\nI would suggest that if this is a crush type thing, maybe just see what happens. Everyone goes through these ( I remember thinking I really liked a few) and everyone needs them in order to do well in relationships later.\n\nWell good luck, and remember, be patient! If you force it too fast you both might not be ready to stick together for that long.\n\nPeace out, tell me how it goes.

i graduated in 1996, and i don't know one highschool sweetheart couple from my class that are still together. i'm thinking slim chances.  the kind of person you want to spend your life with at 18 is totally different when you're 22, much less 28.

i guess it depends whether they are comfortable with the girl they are with or used to them being around i remember my 9th grade and 8th grade boyfriend wasnt dippy at all because he was comfortable with me being around and thats what helped us last until today lol but he can be goofy at times but i find it pretty funny so i dont think he is a moran for it i think every guy should have a little goof and no how to live a little and not be serious all the time

Heck yeah!!!  All that matters is if the two people are compatable.  Age is just a number.

I'm 15 and I date and so does everyone in my high school.  You can't put an age limit on love and attraction so it shouldn't matter how old you are, as long as you are being safe.  I think that teen dating is great because i sure can't imagine life without it.  It's great that you've found someone that you love and you shouldn't let anyone tell you that you are not old enough to have a serious boyfriend.

Depends on what you mean by "serious." If you mean "exclusive," then that's fine. Our school-age relationships are part of the way we learn how to treat others later in life, and you're both learning about commitment.\n\nIf by "serious" you mean "sexual". . . it's definitely unhealthy, no matter how long you've been seeing each other!

Well cup cake, the sad truth is most people never marry their high school sweetheart.  But there are those rare exceptions.  Good luck.()

I married my high school sweet heart.  I am 33 and met my husband when I was a sophmore in HS.  We were married after graduation when we were 19.  We are however currently seperated and getting divorced.  I still love him very much and he says he still loves me and will be there for me forever but we've got so much history it kind of broke us apart instead of bringing us together.  He also during a time of depression I was going through turned to another woman to talk to - that didn't split us up, but that was a big factor.

I met my partner of four years when  I transferred highschools. Once we completed highschool 2years into our relationship we were used to seeing each other daily (weekdays) and almost everyday we spoke on the phone.\n\nI understand it when you say you don't want to get tired of each other, and that's fair enough - and especially if you're young, you need your own seperate life and independence. \n\nHope it works out, it doesn't matter whether ppl here say whether it'll work or not - it's up to the two of you.

Because senior guys are more experienced and make freshmen girls feel more "comfortable." In addition they have been in the school longer, and have more status, being with a senior makes you cool, and the envy of the other girls. And some freshmen girls are in a rush to loose it, or are naive, or would prefer someone who not only knew what they were doing but did it well...
