What is the name of your state?
Michigan

I am 16 years old and I have been seeing this guy for a while. Right now we are just close friends, but we'd like to be more. However, he is 23. I have read many other threads posted by Confused2006, and know how most of you feel about the age difference. However age is just a number to me. I am well aware that there are laws against sex with a legal adult, but are there laws against dating a legal adult (w/ no sexual attachments)
Also, my dad does not like my friend, and he lets me be friends w/ him but says no way will I date him. My mom does not have a problem with it though. However I live with my dad. My question is, if when the time comes to date him, and my dad says no, If i move in w/ my mom, can my dad still have a say in my relationship (like calling the police) if my mom doesn't have aproblem w/ it?
Thank you...

Yes, daddy can still do something about it.

Thank you for your information, however, I have no intention of "engaging in sexual intercourse" with this guy until I am ready. I am not.
So can my dad still do something if there isn't sex involved?
Thanks again.

**Also I am 16. And that info said Under the age of 16. So does this exclude me or do I have to be 17?

Sorry, I corrected it now. It does not exclude you. You are a minor until age 18.

Dad can do a lot. You would not be doing this guy any favors by getting involved with him. Sounds like dad is trying to protect you. If he does not want you two together, he can take legal action (even if you are not planning on having sex).

And while I don't expect you to believe me, there is something SERIOUSLY wrong with a 23 year old who is interested in dating a 16 year old.

There's a reason most of us have a problem with the age difference. It's not just because we're mean and nasty and don't want you to have any fun.

And the guy who is with you faces prison as well. And of course he accepts you - he can control you.

But, what do I know ... I've only been investigating juvenile sex crimes for 14 years.

I had replied a long post to confused. Then I realized this is not her thread.

Confused, you will only get more confused if you persist on posting randomly all over the board.

Do you lose your thread?

Either you hijacked this thread, or else you and 16&23 are the same person.

Stop playing games.

Coincidence? Confused's posts make no sense... how could you glean any useful info from them?
:rolleyes:

I noticed that when one is on the other is not. So I asked 16&23 if she had a split personality.

Seems strange 'confused2006' was compelled to respond to this thread as if we were talking to her.

Yes. When i was 15 i was engaged to a 22 yr. old. Even if yall don't engage in sexual intercourse, he could still get statutory rape charges. My ex almost did. I don't know your dad but, i would say that if he sees you moved in with your mom so you could see this guy, he will press charges against him. He is still your dad and still has legal rights to you.
BE really careful whatever you decide, if you really like this guy, you don't want to get him in trouble.
