Well, it depends what for doesn't it?

Sharing a birthday cake - probably.

Dating - no.

What a strange question, this seems.

I would say that no, just over a year up to two years difference, is not a big age gap.

2 years is nothing....
But if its a 17 and 15 year old then they gotta be careful....

Well there is a school year in between them, so one would be taking GCSEs when the other would be taking A levels.

Linking your two threads, is this an almost 17yo going out with a 15yo?

Myliferocks · 27/06/2013 21:49

Depends when exactly the person is born.
September 1997 would only be a 13 month gap whereas August 1998 would be a two year gap.
Also sept 1997 would mean nearly 16 whereas August 1998 would be nearly 15. Big difference.
