Is it okay to date this girl?
I’m 15 and I’ve been talking to this girl who’s 14, and she seems really interested in me. I’m a sophomore, while she’s in 8th grade. Some of my friends are calling me a “p3d0,” but she’ll be turning 15 next month. Is this unusual?

Make sure to communicate openly with her and ensure that both of you are comfortable with where things are heading.

Ultimately, mutual respect and understanding should guide your decisions. If your friends are being negative, it might help to talk with them about how you feel. Just make sure to be respectful and considerate of her feelings too!
