    Why Not?
    He's your best friend. He knows you better than any other guy (i think...right?) in your school. I'm guessing that you find him cute and you like his personality. Do that math. Why not? He seems pretty perfect to me. You might run into some pebbles on the way (pebbles, not boulders), but you'll probably get through them.

    Girls Usually Date Older for a Reason, but...
    Girls date older guys usually because girls mature faster than guys. If you've found a younger guy who's mature and you like him. Then go for it. Good luck.

    Age Ain't Nuthin' But a Number
    Gurl, I am in love with a guy 5 years older than me. He is one of the best things that has ever happened to me. Age just says you were born before him and if u like him get with him gurl. But for real if you focus on age you might lose a good thing!!

    It's No Big Deal
    It's no big deal it's only 2 years apart. You should go out with him, if you really like someone it doesn't matter how old they are!
