Today, I found out that the guy I've been crushing on for months is actually 15 years old. I'm 22. Not only is it gross, but it's also illegal. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I learned that the guy I've had a crush on for almost 6 months at work is significantly younger than me. So young that I could have been his babysitter growing up. He's 21, I'm 34. FML
Today, I found out that the 19-year-old I've been seeing is really 26, with two kids and a pregnant fiancée. I'm only 17. FML
Today, I found out the 28-year-old I am dating is actually 48. FML
Today, I found out my most attractive co-worker has a crush on me. I'm 53. She's 16.. FML
Today, the boy that I met online six months ago and expressed my love to sent me a picture of himself and confessed how old he really was: thirteen. I'm eighteen years old and holding a steady job. FML
Today, I found out that the girl I've been dating online for over three months is actually a very bored 14-year-old boy. FML
Today, it's been a year since I met a guy online. We clicked almost immediately. Eventually we started dating, after proving who we are through many sources. Turns out he lied about his age after he conspired to make sure I was 100% in love with him before telling me the truth. He's legal but the age gap is uncomfortable. FML
Today, a cute new guy I always run into at work hit on me. Turns out he's only 18. I'm old enough to be his mom. FML
Today, I found out the boyfriend of 2 years is actually 22 years-old instead of the 28 that he told me. I'm turning 39 this year and I'm very pregnant. FML
Today, I found out that the guy I've been dating for the past 7 months, who insisted on keeping us a secret because it was "too soon", is proudly showing off his new 19 year old girlfriend he met a month ago. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Age is just a number and jail is just a room.

I remember being in 8th grade and there were 6ft tall students with full beards. sometimes people bloom early, just move on OP. plenty more dudes out there.

Funny thing is those 7 years between you too is also the number of years between my mom and dad (still together after 24 years :D). If you really like him and he's matures through the years, just wait for him to be legal.

Age of consent is 16 in Australia or not? So it's not like OP has to wait 3 years...the guy's birthday might be even next week.

I love the double standard hear. If the genders were reversed the comments would be totally different. Y'all giving her tips and advice. I'm going to call her a pedophile.

You can also call her a unicorn, doesn't mean that you are right.

You're a pedophile. Before you downvote me ask yourself this: "If the OP was a guy would I be saying the same thing?"

Don't worry op, in Germany the legal age is 14 and France, Spain, and Italy 15. There's nothing to feel guilty about, the US just has more conservative laws.

OP is from Australia. And it's a very slippery slope to use legality as a basis for morality considering how there are many horrible things that are legal in different countries...

thats not so bad, you know now, just don't act on it. who knows, maybe when hes older you might reconnect . i mean i met my partner of 3 years when i was 18, barely interacted till i was 20, then i took the plunge, she is 10 years older than me.

I'm curious to know how you met him to have liked him for months without knowing his age. Not passing judgement...plenty of teenagers look much older nowadays.

I remember I had the same problem once, same ages too. Don't feel too bad. We can't help who we like! Just don't act on it. :)
