Is it okay to date someone 2 years older than you?

Answer 1

Actually, it depends on the ages and what state you live in. Check out the family laws of your state. Generally if one is under 18 and one is over 18, then possibly no! But many states differ here. Play it safe and check family law in your state first before you develop feelings for each other.

Answer 2

Depends on your age. If you are 13 that is too young to date at all let alone someone 15. Your interests don't match and the younger you are the more this is true. In reverse as you get older the 2 year difference makes little difference. With maturity and experience you learn how to date, get to know someone, and when to have sex or not. Believe it or not even as an older adult with all the age and experience in life dating an older person still has it's problems. There is 12 years difference between my husband and I and I still run into things that are different between his generation and mine. I tease him about it, but that could really affect a relationship when I was younger. There is so much involved in world view as well as little things like music and movies.
