You may disagree with me, but I think that 13, 14 or 15 is too young for a "boy-girl date". Doing activities with the opposite sex is fine, and I recommend that in non-romantic group settings. But at your age you aren't going to enjoy the "date" thing as much now as you will if you start when you're older. You are perfectly free to think that I'm just an old dinosaur who doesn't know a thing about you and your life -- and on a personal level that is certainly true enough, and I agree with you. However, I do have 40-odd years of experience that you don't have, and I've raised two kids (now in their 20s) who would also agree with me, having been where you are now. What I'm saying, in case it's not clear, is: do be friends with her, by all means. Do things with her -- and with others at the same time -- and have a good time. But don't put the pressure on yourselves of calling this a "date" and all that wondering and awkwardness of "do I kiss her on the first date?" and all that goes with that. You'll grow up soon enough -- you'll have to trust me on this. Don't rush it.

You are too young to be dating. Since you asked a question I will answer. I am 26 and my boyfriend is 33. I think if you are going to date someone then they should be around that age.
