    Enjoy the relationship and let it take place naturally. She is doing her Leaving, so that should be her focus this year. But that doesn't mean that you can't go out together etc.

    My only concern is that you are 22 and working - and as you're a man, sex is on your brain. Please don't let that be a driving factor in the relationship.

    Just think of how many couples you know where the man is, say 35 and the woman is 30. That's the same age gap as you and this girl. People's predjudice comes from the fact that some 17 year old girls can be quite easily swayed by attention from, and taken advantage of by, older men. If you respect this girl and are willing to wait for her to be ready before getting physically intimate then there shouldn't be a problem.

    You are pretty much in the same stage of life :) Nothing wrong with a 22yo guy dating a 17yo girl.
    Only advice one has to say is be abit careful. You are 22, you are obviously more mature than when you were 17. But more importantly from the sounds of what you described you are not with her that long... and yet you both already love each other.

    Mate, im 25 and I can tell you right now that when a 17yo girl says she "loves someone" - ... i'd still be a little careful :)
    but i wish you all the best :) just as I say... dont let what seems to be a whirlwind of emotions cloud your judgement :) She still is only 17 ;)
