Well, here goes. As you've probably guessed, I'm new here. I want to say hello, first of all, to all you nice (hopefully) people who gather to talk here on a regular basis.
OK... now, to why this is posted in the homosexuality forum... Well, I'm gay. Just recently, I've innocently attracted an older boyfriend who is in an illegal range, and shouldn't be dating me. (He's only 19, I'm 15) Now, don't track me down, and tell my parents I'm gay, or try to get my boyfriend arrested, or anything. It wouldn't be the right thing to do, and don't please forget that it isn't your place to be judgeing us.
Now, don't think "oh, this older boyfriend is a bad person" because he isn't. I was actually the one to ask him out. (of course, it was legal at the time [there is allowed a 3 year legal variance for underaged teenagers to date older persons, homosexually or heterosexually; and we are only a few weeks off, and the whole thing will be legal again at my upcoming b-day]) Anyways, I want to hear your oppinions on this, and why you think it's wrong, I'd also like to point out reasons as to why we are dating eachother, to help you better understand the conditions.
First off, I am a gamer, and I love to play videogames and watch anime movies. However, I'm not an otaku, necessarily, because I don't obsess over these things. My boyfriend also is a gamer, and likes anime, not to mention we have other things in common.
Second, he was just dumped by his girlfriend, who thout he was too immature (he may be older than me, but he usually acts younger, and that is one of the traits that attracted me to him)
Third, it is getting increasingly hard to find other gay males around here. Oddly enough, the number of gay females in our area has skyrocketed in the last couple years. The school hallways are filled with them.
Now, we both have realized the age problem, so we've been trying to work around it. We know that sex is an issue, and we understand that we won't be able to avoid forever, but we're trying our hardest to keep from having it. We're starting to feel uncomfortable, and I know breaking up with him would be a lot harder on him, so I've decided to stay with him, let whatever happens happen, and hope for the best.
Now, I would really like to get your opinions and advice on this. I've been a little uncomfortable on the subject, and getting tips to keep my boyfriend in check would be very much appreciated.
