If you do not take the time to present all the relevant facts how do you expect us to give a correct answer to your question? Also, why can you not take the time to write in sentences and use a spell checker? You will learn in life that the quality of responses to your questions will depends to a large extent on the impression yo make on others.

You are a minor and your boyfriend is 6 years older than you [more than 1/3 of your life span]. If he has sex with you then it is statutory rape and your mother could report him to the police. No one is going to believe that a man of that age loves you for your mind or character. You are still a minor living in your mother's house and thus under her rules; she can easily get a restraining order against him. Do you really want to get married right out of high school and not enjoy the post teen years most people do? If he loves you will he not wait for you. Are you ready to have children, does he have a good job to support you and a family, do you want to stop your education and break off with your current friends? Have you discussed this with someone not your parents so you can hear what their experiences have been?

I wish you luck but I think you are being foolish and acting your age, not that of a mature woman who can make rational decisions.
