You end it with him! If there has been any kissing, sex etc been going on between you then you are breaking the law and can be in some serious trouble.

Quite frankly I don't know any people that date without some kind of intimate activity such as kssing going on. That's just my own personal perspective though.

It shouldn't matter what anyone else thinks, its your opinion, and if you want to date someone younger, than you can. But if you don't love him, I would break up with him, you are older than him. His isn't as mature as you, and you don't want to lead him on by staying with him

adviceishere (Jun 18, 2011 01:28 PM): if she wants to date someone younger she can? no she cant! not in the eyes of the law when she is a grown woman and he is a minor.   Source:

Sarah, it does matter what other people think, her opinion doesn't matter at all. She's an adult, the person she's dating is a child. If there's any sort of sexual activity going on she can go to jail, be labelled a sex offender for the rest of her life. Be on a sex offender list for the rest of her life. The judge won't care what her opinion is.

Your advice is the worst advice anyone can offer. You're telling her it's okay to break the law.

I will agree with Alty and Addy.

It is not ok to be dishonest or break the law.

With your attitude I wonder who is the most mature in your "relationship" .

Be honest with him and find someone closer to your age and they may lend you some maturity.

Well first off everyone is right with the legal stuff. If there is any sexual connection or action betweeen you guys you can be in serious trouble. And the fact that you don't love him should be enough for you to break up with him. Your taking all the risk and its not even for a good reason. Your gma and friends probably feel the same way. But at the end of the day it your decision.

How is it her decision?

If someone came to this site and said they wanted to murder someone, would you say "Well, it's against the law, but, at the end of the day it's your decision"?

That's horrible advice!

Against the law is against the law! There is no decision, no option, no room for opinion! If the parents of this child decided to go after her, she won't be making any decisions for a very long time.
