You did not say how old you both are, so I can only assume you are both old enough to get married. If true love is what you have then God bless the both of you.

It really depends. first lets look at this from a legal point of view. It might be against the law in your state for a 16 and 22 year old to be together...as in sexually...as in statutory rape... as in 3 to 9 years jail time. But from another view. It really depends on the people in the relationship. A strain can develop from you two being on different levels, intellectually, mentally, physically, emotionally, experience wise, etc. you don't want to be talking about what happened at lunch at school while he is talking about the latest college parties or work whatever. There may also be a problem if your parents/guardians don't want you dating somebody who is that much older than you. I won't say that 22 is too old for a 16 year old but it may be more work than you should have to commit to as a 16 year old. PS older boys are in to older things(things you may not be ready for.)  what ever you choose BEST WISHES!

my husband is 10 years older than myself, we have a beautful 2 yr old baby boy, so age isn't a factor unless of course you aren't legal!!! love can happen to anyone

Yes\n\n\n\nby the way it is illegal for an 18 year old to "be with" a 15 year old in a relationship....you really should find someone your own age.

I totally agree. I think 22 should be the youngest. And 27 a good older age, but you can get married at any age older than 22. Don't get married before 21 because then you can't legally have champagne at your wedding!

The answer is now 15 years of age.\n\nyesterday, they passed a bill unamiously to prevent anyone under the age of 15 to get married.\n\nStrangely they will let minors 15, 16 and 17 to get married.\n\nEDIT: Added a source to read more about it.

In North Carolina the age of consent is 16, so if the boy was 16 at the time of conception it was not statutory rape.  However, if he is 16 now but was not yet 16 seven months ago it would be statutory rape (i.e. if he was still 15 when he got her pregnant but is 16 now).  The pregancy is beyond the legal limit for abortion, so the only applicable laws deal with parental rights and child support.  Also, North Carolina actually still has an adultery statute, so assuming they were not a married couple, both the girl and the boy could be charged with misdemeanor adultery (although this statute is not generally enforced).\n\nIN NORTH CAROLINA, SEX WITH A 16-YEAR-OLD IS NOT STATUTORY RAPE!  All those previous answers are wrong.\n\nBut I'm curious: how can you be seven months pregnant and not notice?

Even if you don't go to jail now... you'll still be able to be prosecuted down the line, whether she turns sixteen or not! \n\nGet out of her life... wait intil she's older... if it's love, you'll wait and respect her... and the law... my late dad did exactly this, back in 1933 when he met my late mum. He fell in love on sight, but knew she was too young at fourteen, he was 21... he left her well alone and waited, because he saw her in her working life often, and sure enough, they met again, he made it happen,  when she eighteen, and they married the next year. Married till he died, her photo, taken age nineteen, still inside his wallet.

No, she's still underage and even with her consent, it's still considered statutory rape. Just remember that 16 will get you 20 (years in jail).

Generally you must be 35 and have been married for 8 years, if memory serves me.  Contact your priest.  Your spouse has to consent to this permanent drain on your time.

In the US, if you are underage--even if you "want it"--it is considered rape if an older person makes love to you.  For example, let's say you are 15.  If your partner is 18 or over 18 and he/she makes love to you--even if you both wanted to do it--he/she could go be charged with statutory rape because you are a minor and he (or she) is not.\n\nA friend of mine in Texas was 18 or 19 when he got a 15-year-old pregnant.  They were dating when she got pregnant.  And her parents loved him...up until the time she got pregnant.  They took him to court; to make a long story short, the judge ruled in this manner:  He gave my friend a choice:  either go to prison for the statutory rape, or marry the girl.  My friend decided to marry the girl, but the marriage didn't last long.  They couldn't get along; he wasn't happy living with the girl's parents; the parents didn't like him anymore; he couldn't get a good job to support the girl or the baby...etc., etc., so they wound up separating.  I lost contact with him, so I don't know what happened to the baby.  I'm sure the girl and/or her parents decided to raise it.\n\nThis is a perfectly legitimate question, so whoever said this is a stupid question, try to be more open.  Obviously if you are a minor, there are many things you want to know before you do them; we should try to help rather than blow these questions off.  It could be your child asking you this question some day.\n\nSo the bottom line is, if you are underage and you are thinking of having sex with your adult partner, don't do it.  Wait until you are at least 18.  Even if you and your partner are both 14 or 15 or 16 or 17, or any age below 18--wait until you guys are at least 18.  You don't want to wind up being 15 with a baby living with your parents.

I got married when I was 18 to a man that was 36 and it's 11 years later and it is still going strong!! To the people who think he is a pedophile: maybe she was 18 when they started the relationship! I met, dated and married my husband when I was 18! Age does not make any difference if you love each other!!

If you are legally married, then no, you are not committing a crime.\nMarriage is the ONLY consistant legal defense for statutory rape.\nYou should should probably be ashamed of yourself unless you're also underage, but while it's crazy and usually wrong to be married to a fourteen year old, the marriage license makes it legal.

There is a state or two that no matter what the age of the people if the bride is pregnant or has a child they can get married without parents knowing about it.

It's perfectly legal for the 2 of you to date.\nBut...if you 2 have sex before you're 18, he technically could get charged with having sex with a minor, if someone decided to press charges.\n In Nebraska you have to be 19 before you can get married without parental consent...which is different to most of the rest of the US.
