Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas
IS THERE A LAW THAT KEEPS AN 18 YEAR OLD FROM DATING A 16 YR OLD?
I'm wondering if there is a law that would keep me from dating a 16 year old. I'm 18, and don't want to go to jail if she cries rape or her mom decides to call the cops. thanks for your time.
p.s just graduated high school in June

The old saying is that "16 will get you 20."
You may not legally have sexual relations with a minor, and if you do so you do it at your peril and the possibility of prosecution if someone objects.
Find an older girlfriend.
