When I was 17 my gf was 14. She lied and said she was 15. I only found out when we got caught and her mom called my mom to complain. I had another 14 year old too, later that year, knowing. I was horny and they were willing. I wouldn't call it a mistake, but I would call much of my youth life very cringe. I'm an editor/animator, not a performer. With do-overs I'm quite sure I could do much better.
