Question Posted Wednesday February 1 2006, 3:38 am
Hi, I am 15 and I will be 16 in March. My ex boyfriend broke up with me cause his parents were afraid he would get introuble with the law cause he is 19. We weren't doing anything sexual, is it still illegal to even date? I live in Michigan and I know the age for sex here is 16, but what about just dating?
Now he wants to wait till he moves out at the end of March or later to go back out. Cause he HAD to leave me or get kicked out of his house. Should I wait for him.. or move on? I really love him.. and he doesn't even know if we will ever get back together. I'm confused and heartbroken, any advice?

First, you may want to take the time and do a little research though. Get tbe documents if he wants proof that the law is true. But if he doesn't want to risk it, then you need to move on and get over him. Don't waste your time because time is a precious thing and you don't want to lose/waste it. Don't be his doormat. MOVE ON. [ Courtney's advice column | Ask Courtney A Question ]

Then, if hes not ready... move on. i know this couple who is engaged and they are 15 years apart. im going to be in their wedding. after you turn like 19 or so, age doesnt matter. if you have to... move on!

for now, i think you should move on. there is no use for a healthy and happy relationship if it is kept from our dear parents.
gurl, you are turning 16. You have to experience more of your life. you are young to be seriously heartbroken, move on and have fun.
for sure, this will hurt a bit, but in the end, you know you made the right decision. enjoy first! if both of you are meant together, then there is no doubt that your roads will cross again, no matter how old you get. make the best out of the present. there is this quote a frend of mine said: "if you want a very beautiful butterfly that will be yours and only yours,do not run after it. instead, open your arms and wait, for sure your own butterfly will come to you." :) [ gorgeous_vixen's advice column | Ask gorgeous_vixen A Question ]
