    I'm a 19 year old girl and my boyfriend is 16 and we live in GA. Is this legal?
    We only recently started dating. What is the lowest age a 19 year old can date in Georgia? Im Mormon so I'm extremely religious and in still a virgin and not interested in sex at all.

    LOL, of course you are interested in sex, 16 year olds, 19 year olds are all interested, just some religious groups because of beliefs, control those emotions and interest. The other issue is if the 16 year old boy is a Mormon and what is his sexual interest, since he can help pressure the partner into sex.

    There are no dating laws at all within the US as to age. The parents of the 16 year old will have to be aware of the dating and give permission.

    The age of consent in Georgia is 16 and there is no close-in-age exception, though the offenses are a misdemeanor rather than a felony in cases where the perpetrator is less than 19 years of age and is no more than 4 years older than the victim

    Ages of consent in North America - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Thank you so much :) I feel better now I know I'm not breaking any laws. His parents are OK with it. Mine are skeptical. They think he would try something lol. I know what's right and what's wrong though and I'm saving myself for marriage. Thanks again and god bless

    Of course he is most likely going to "try" something at some point and time, most boys do. (ok not all) and he will also try and convince you that it is even your idea.

    Just remember what you want, and that no means NO,
