Well. My first love happened when I was 15. He was 19 and we met at church camp, my first kiss, and he asked if he could kiss me...ahhhhhh, first love! But we lived 3 hours apart, and after 4 months of letters and phone calls and one visit, it just kinda stopped, on his part of course... How do I know it was love, because running into him again at 20, I still loved him. Even to this day, I still think of Matt and he still holds a very dear place in my heart....NOW that being said....
TAKE IT SLOW> Be friends, good friends. Realize and understand and accept that she is VERY young, and you still have a long way to go yourself. I'm 29, and am finally just feeling like I know who I am...Pray together, go to church together, rely fully on God, for every decision you make(concerning ALL things) and you will be ok. Remember, the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak...don't put yourself in situations that will be hard to control.
Do your parents, hers and yours, know about the relationship, and are they supportive of it?
Goodluck and Godbless you. Be wise and careful!
