The law is that no one under teh age of sixteen is allowed to engage in sexual acts and were you to do this now, this guy would go to jail if people were to find out.

Although, since your living in America, it varies from state to state, check out this link and check the chart on it:

And just a little tip (although I'm sure you'll do this anyway) : Don't let anyone know sweetie. You'll get so much flack for it

I can't talk much about age. No, I have never had quite that large of a gap, but I'm sixteen and my boyfriend is 20. I'm turning 17 next month and he was the first guy I ever dated (two years ago) but a lot changed in our relationship.

When we began dating two years ago I was innocent and really only wanted a hot boyfriend to flaunt around. But we started dating and I completely fell in love. He took my virginity and changed me so much. After only three months he deemed me too young to date and left. I didn't see him for a year and a half after that. I was left angry and confused and absolutely heart broken.

Even though I still dated afterwords, it was never the same. I dated safe guys that would never break my heart and wanted complete control in the relationship. As you can imagine, that never really worked out.

Only a couple of months ago we started talking again and now we're dating again. It took so much to trust him again, and I know that if he ever leaves me again I'll be even worse off than before.

I guess what I'm trying to say is: I know you love him, but I'd feel it out for a bit, see where its going and how you two will work together. It seems like everything will be fantastic now, but later everything changes. Yes, I got my love back, but most people dont. He changed me so much and sometimes I wonder where I'd be if we'd never dated. Just think about it.

By the way, the law changes in every state, what state are you in? I know in New Hampshire the legal age of consent is 16 (but only if ur bf is 20 or younger). And California is 18. It changes from state to state. Just let me know the state and I'll tell you.
