Who has dated some one older?

OK…I am 13 and I dont date anyone younger than me, I mite when im older but at the moment no…I mostly like highschoolers(14-17) I am currently crushing on a 17 yr old…hes really nice, and sweet and funny, and we have a lot in common…but everyone thinks hes too old for me…he has told me he llikes me and we talk all the time…he calls me names such as: baby doll, sweetie, beautiful, ect. he is graduating this year and that also scares me because what if we date but when he moves he’ll dump just like that..? I believe in the saying ‘age is but a number’ because when you get older it not a huge deal..now it seems like it is but its not. he has told not to do anything I dont want to and that I shouldnt ever feel pressured by him. I really like him and im attracted by him…he kind dorky but I think that just makes him more cute, he doesnt judge me and he makes me feel happy when I tlk to him or when im around…so do you think it would be a good relationship and what are your views on dating som1 older?? please dont tell me im too young to think abt boys, I’ve have that conversation thousands of times…

oh also…lol I have another thing to add… I have a sorta friend who likes him but he stopped talking to her and a lot of ther girls because they acted like b*hes to him and started a lot of drama with each other and him…the girl doesnt want me to tlk to him and says how much of an a he is but I think she is just mad that he started talking to me. well I lied and told her that me and him don’t tlk at all anymore because ‘im too young’(thats what he told her because he didnt want to call her any names) so she is okay with me now…but she says he has STDs and told my friend not to tell me but she did because she wanted to make sure I was safe and checked it out and he told me that he has nevr had a STD and that he doesnt sleep around, and I believe him because he told me abt his exes and other stuff but I don’t want the girl to mess this up and end up starting stuff and ruining this…so any advice on it?? thanks, oxoxo Fallenheart
