Hey....I am currently 15, I will be 16 in 6 days. I have been seeing this guy who is 23 for the past 3 weeks and we have slept together. We are nervous about people finding out because we are unsure if it is legal. I was wondering if it is ok for him and I to date without us breaking the law. Is it?

scared16 agony auntwell i think it is illegal as it is classed as statutory rape. u r under the age of consent. but once u r 16 it doesn't matter how old he is coz u will b over the age of consent. so if ur 16 soon i wudn really worry. well this is the law in the uk neway x

Choongalicious agony auntDarling, it is illegal as he is 23 and your under the legal age to have sex. He should of known that since he is the adult in this relationship. You guys need to slow down it has been 3 weeks, I hope that you know what your doing though. Good luck

I think it's probably illegal. Don't take this the wrong way either but I question the judgement of a man who wants to date a young lady your age. Especially if he knows he's doing something wrong. His interests shold be in older women.

vina_101 agony auntIf you're in England then no it's not legal. The legal age is 16. But you're gonna be 16 in a couple of days so...I guess it's ok. Not ideal, but ok. If you're in America then the lagal age is 18. And again, no it wouldn't be legal and you've got a couple years to go before you can legally get it on.

Of course you can date him. That's legal...As far as I know anyway. Don't quote me on that. lol.

beautifulxxbrunette08 agony aunti live in florida. different laws apply to different states. i would have to know which state you live in to give you a perfect explainable answer. i know that it is completely illegal where i am to have sex with an adult at you age. i know that the law here is this...if you are 16 and have consent from your legal guardians to be with a person over the age of 18 then it is legal, but it is illegal once you have sex with someone up to the age of 24 if you are still by law a minor. darling, i am sad to say that this is not a good choice. Breaking the law is something I personally take seriously. the thing is that if you both get caught, he could go to jail for a long time and his whole life will be ruined. but maybe you should google your states' statutory rape law. it might answer a few questions of yours.

good luck.
