The girl i like said no because im younger, help?

The girl i like likes me back. I've wanted to date her for 2 years. She had a boyfriend during that period. Now shes single so i asked her but she said no bc shes going to a different school next year & im gonna still be here. We only live 11 mins apart. She also said no bc after she leaves we're barely gonna see eachother. Shes only 11 months older than me & she wants someone her age. Bc they bullied her for dating someone a year younger than her. She likes me & says she would say yes but those issues. Theres this guy whos basically my competition. Hes her age & likes her. She likes him but she said she wouldnt go out w. Him bc she doesnt want to hurt my feelings. I just dont know what to do. I easily get jealous when she talks to guys especially my competition. Idk if i should keep trying, or just let her go. She says that in the future she'll marry me & all that. I need help. So help me please? I would like a girls P.O.V &. A guys P.O.V

Don't waste your time on this girl. Looks like she's a fickle minded girl and that can be heart-breaking for you. It is best for you to leave her now than later.
Find a girl who will love you ( and only you! ) for who you are and not treat you as an option.

It sounds to me like she's seeing how long she can keep you hooked. She's playing you and that other guy, and God knows who else. Here's an idea, find a pretty girl and ask her to do you a huge favor. Have her flirt with you on Facebook, hang out with you and post pictures later where this girl can see. If she gets jealous and acts possessive then you know she just wants to control and to remain the girl you worship, if she doesn't say anything then she's either 1. Testing you or 2. Genuinely does not care. The only way that would make sense for her to respond if she really cares about you and ”planned to marry you” is for her to ask you about it and then make an effort to get you back for the right reasons. But it is a judgment call and you will have to form your own opinions about it. No one can help you with that here. Good luck sweetie
