adviceman49 is right
im not saying you should be away from your true love but try to restrain urself from having sex as it can have negative effects not only on ur body but on him and everyone connected to both of your lives.
my parents themselves have at least the age difference you have and notin stoped them from their love
you shud also talk 2 him about this and if he truly loves you he wud respect your wishes and think of what is best for you besides it would be a good way 2 test how strong his love for you really is

well in texas if you are 17 you can date any adult since 17 is the age of consent. But until then since you are still 16 DO NOT do anything sexual with him or he could end up in jail for atleast 4 years and you would have no say in it. I know this because i am in a current situation like yours except the age difference is 4 years. Right now it only matters what the law has to say since this is illegal but once you turn 17 it does not matter what anybody thinks! Just be happy but dont live a fantasy live in reality

The short answer to your question is: In the eyes of the LAW you are to young for him and just being with him can cause him a great many legal problems if your parents or anyone else disapprove and reports him. The charge would be Statutory Rape. This does not mean you and he had any type of sex it just means he is to old for you and sex could happen between you, that you are not legally able to consent too. If you two happen to cross a state line together then he can also be charged with a Federal Crime of violating the Mann Act.
The six year difference between you is very strange. Does this man know your true age? I understand you love him and if you truly do love him you will make sure he knows your 16 not 17 which makes no difference because there is still a 5 year difference in age and he is still subject to violation of the laws I stated above.
If he is aware of your true age then I worry if he is a sexual predator. Sorry but I'm a parent myself and as a parent I have to think of these things. Someone his age should not be dating a teenager of your young age. There is something wrong with that picture. If you were 20 and he 26 I would not have a problem with this but your present age difference has many red flags waving in my mind.
I am left wondering if your parents know about this age difference? If they are not aware you are dating him, then you should make them aware. If they do not have a problem with you dating someone 6 years older than you; then you have my blessing as well. I believe though your parents would not approve of you seeing this man and threaten to turn him into the police if you continue to see him. I know I would.
It is only wrong to date someone this much older than you while you are still in your teenage years. If when you are older you find you still prefer dating older more mature men no one will have a problem with that. For right now though it is our responsibility as parents and society to keep you safe from people that may have ulterior motives on their minds.

In my opinion I find him way to old for you. First of all anything sexual between the two of you is illegal. I wouldn't think of anyone that much older than you until you are about 20. When you're 20 it's not really that weird. I am 18, and my boyfriend is 21, and that is the furthest in age difference I will go.
When you find someone closer to your age, the easier it is to relate to eachother. Yes, you may love him but think twice about it. You're too young..
You have your entire life ahead of you. His age? Might old you back, and dating him might hold you back. Don't let it. Good luck!
