Barely legal!

Its not illegal to just be friends. for 2 years...

Break it off. If he didn't have the respect to tell you to begin with . . . What else is he hiding?

do you like your freedom if so I would say DON'T TOUCH him just be friends he will become legal sooner or later.

i think you should talk to him about it.

there are no legal or moral quams here if you both understand the situation at hand. my concern is that I really don't see how it will possibly work out. there is no way a 16 year old boy (notice how I said 'boy') can be enough for a 23 year old woman like yourself. I am 27 and have dated much younger girls, 19 and 20 year olds (when I was 24 I dated a 17 year old), and although the sex is fantastic awesome, the age difference begins to show itself all the time. they just aren't mature enough at that age. and I don't just mean they are childish, there are many things that come with maturity and sometimes you don't see them till a while down the road. trust me, you will definately have big time problems with him. also, there will be many awkward social hurdles to overcome, not that you con't do it, but that will get annoying too. I know he is likely so fun and caring, but you will soon realize you need more. I mean no offense, but what do you even talk to this guy about? You are like the age of someone graduated from uni and he is half way through high school. I don't see how that could be interesting.

Where are the following people, who had this to say about a 23 yo guy with a 16 yo girl?

Alwaysclassy--Sick
Obscene--Troll
Samanthafave--cradlerobber
Amielou717--little girl scammer
Sammy-w--child molester
bitesizedonut--creeper
Poofs517--sick
Rareity--creepy
Bobair--superficial

And others, my fingers are getting tired...

I suggest you literally do not touch him with a ten foot pole until he's legal.

"Barely Legal" = He's legal though. What's the problem?

He IS legal, so I would recommend going for him. You don't find many sweet, hot, and thoughtful guys. Plus he isn't tainted by many failed relationships.

Hopefully it works out, always remember he is young and eventually he will want to experience his youth again.

this is why I don't tell girls my age because they freak out... who the f*** cares... he's 16 OH NO! lol if he's nice and caring and looks 19... then shush about it and give it a shot...

Well, he MAY be legal, it depends on the laws of the country/state and depending on where you live and such. However, all sex junk aside, 4yrs isn't that bad as for having a relation but if the legal bit is the issue, look up the state laws on it so you can know if its safe or not to actually engage with him.

Lucky guy!

\\\"Barely legal\\\" is like barely pregnant--it is a silly term! Either you are legal or you are not, just like either you are pregnant or you are not..
So--he\\\'s legal. Follow your heart.
BTW, this has nothing to do with you, but watch everyone be fine with this, when they would hang you if the genders were reversed. God, I hate sexual double standards!

Just ignore his age. That's not a factor. If you love each other, and want to spend the rest of your lives together, go for it! If you don't love someone, don't have real sex with him, no matter what his age is.

You already know what you should do. He's a child. Yes, he may *seem* like a man, but his parents are still responsible for him, and if you ever got caught, you'd officially become a registered sex offender. That doesn't sound like something future prospects would like.

Tell him the truth, that you like him, etc... but you've got to wait until he's legal. That's a no-brainer! Cut off contact to avoid temptation, and stand your ground. Go out and find a MAN that has a job, responsibilities, has finished high school, and doesn't have to lie about his age. That in itself was a sign that the kid wasn't mature enough for a relationship.

Best of luck

What I would worry about is it legal in the state some states its ok in others its not. Besides the age he's not being honest with you he said he was 19 but he's 16 is that what you want someone that's not honest.? When I was 19 almost 20 I use to like this 17 year old in high school. Well all his friends that he was the man and he was bragging about it o he got a 19 year old in college but around me he was the sweetest thing telling me when he's done school he wants to live wit me and all this stuff. Make sure this guy isn't just talking s***. Because at 16 there mind isn't there and they brag about everything wit there friends. Don't be a trouphy. Sorry bout spelling I'm from puerto rico
