READ MY STORY FIRST PLEASSS!~
So I am gay and I met a guy online and I am 20 ABOUT TO JUST TURN 21. Anyway I was looking for relationships near me I live in Montana. I found one guy about 2 months ago that really liked me and I like him he told me he was 18 and it showed 18 on his profile. HE LIVES 2 hours from me in a town called Kalispel and I have NEVER MET HIM YET. He khem! showed me a picture of him naked he kinda said he wanted sex quite plainly……anyway I told him I am looking for something long term and he told me that’s cool so was he actually and that he thought he thought I was really amazing–he seems like a sweetheart by the way. Anyway…….about 2 days ago he says hey I have to tell you something….and I “please don’t leave me or not talk to me just for this but, I am actually 17 I had to lie to get onto that dating web site” then he says I turn 18 in December (I don’t think he is lieing this time and some of his pics are TAKEN IN KALISPEL I KNOW THIS BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN THERE many times)………Well I didn’t know what to say or do I didn’t want to hurt his feelings and be like **** off you lied or something. In his pictures on myspace it’s hard to TELL exactly how old he is I would guess NO LESS than 17 he looks more like 18 to 19 but it’s hard to tell these days. He also has friends which have commented his pics on myspace and I have asked them if they have met him and they say YES. Anyway I don’t know what to do here….I don’t feel like I am a pedophile or something just because he is 17 and I am soon to be 21. That’s only years difference or actually 3.8 or something but it happens all the time. Is there something wrong with me? I don’t feel like I am doing anything wrong but am I being abnormal here? Anyway we don’t necessarily have to have sex anyway, but you never know how or when the government these days will start getting involved in your life. How do I know it’s not a government sting to try and get me in prison since he is 9 months from being 18? Better question yet I have tried to find the age of consent for Montana and it’s about impossible. Some sites say 16 is the age of consent, some say 18, and some say 16 for straight relations and 18 for gay ones. I looked up an actual consent law which is on the Montana governemnt web site and it’s written exactly copied in the link bellow. It basically says 16 is legal and anything bellow that there can only be 4 years ago difference. I also heard some place though that that bill only applies to straight relationships not gay ones and that gay ones both partners had to be 18……..I am so sad and confused about what to do here I fell for this guy who I thought I was 18..I feel like I am being tricked. He says he wants too meet me and that he would talk to me on the phone. He also gets upset when I talk to his friends…he tolds me he wants to keep this in the closet which I didn’t know but I told him I thought that was cool. Anyway what should I do I am crying and very sad scared and confused about the whole situation…should I meet him I mean what the hell do I do here???????????
