Ultimately, it's your decision alone. My only concern would be, should the date
develop into a relationship which then goes sour, she may (I don't know her
obviously, but there's always a possibility) go claiming that you took advantage
of her, whether or not you really did. Then, your reputation gets dragged
through the mud and you have to deal with a whole lot of hassle, simply because
she was 17- one year younger than being a legal adult according to law.
If I may ask, how much longer until she turns 18? Because if it's not too long,
it really may be worth it to just wait.
Go for it if you ask me. As for as I known you were a good person and if you
both love each other I believe it will work out. So do it and find out. Oh yeah
if you can tell me if it works out or not. Don't know why but I most know the
endings for most things. Oh yeah don't forget to consider your and her's
feelings. I hope everything works out and good luck.
Lol, I really don't think its wrong to date younger, unless she's underage. If
she has no problem with it and its all legal and parents don't have a problem
with it, why would you?
Right now I'm dating a guy who is 18 years older than I am (I'm 19, he's 37).
He's met my parents who actually like him, I've met his family who never had a
problem with it in the first place, and we've been together for over a year now
with no regrets.
Sometimes the problem in age rifts are that one person is too mature or the
other is too immature. If you've talked to her and could really relate to her
before you found out her age, I think that a really good thing. I think that in
this case, even though age matters, asking her out would be a good choice.
You should become her friend first to gain her trust before you consider a
serious relationship. But, it's okay for you to date younger girl as long as you
like her so much.
age doesnt matter when it comes to love...though my mom always says that girls
should go out with someone older not younger since they're "mature".
I'd still say goooo for it!
Just 5 years? Go and date her. But be aware, you're the one who's going to act
as an adult, the one who's going to be responsible and yes. confront her parents
age shouldnt matter in lov right? you liked her befor you found out hao old she
wz... but in the long runn... fiv years wont seem like a bigg thing nao will it?
^^ it jus seems like a bigg gap nao... but no worries =) go ask her
m.i.a. ^^
There is a 7 years difference between my dad's and mother's age so i dont see
the problem with 5 years .....unless you like 10 and she is 5 ....that would
just by wrong
i use to date guys who were older then me and then i married someone who is
younger then me. I am 21 and my husband is 20. with my ex when we use to go out,
i was 19 and he was 24. age shouldn't matter as long as love can keep you
together.

well you could become close friends without really going further, till she becomes 18 anyway then you can take it further

If you love her it doesn't matter how old she is or you either.

I agree with everyone else, though this topic's kinda old.
So're you going out with her yet?
