I am 18 years old and my girlfriend is 17. can i get in trouble for dating her, since we are sexually active?

There is nothing of which I am aware in Florida's laws that would prohibit the two of you being intimate right now. There are, however, laws that come into play when one of the individuals involved is under 16 years of age at the time of the encounter. That said, there is a close in age exception that might well apply to your prior activity; I would have to double check based upon both of your exact ages at the time of the alleged incident(s). Regardless, if you and she decide to continue to engage in sexual activity right now, you should be absolutely fine (as far as any age-related criminal issue might be concerned). I would advise you not to discuss any activity you had with her prior to the time she turned 16. There's nothing to gain by so doing.

I agree with Mr. Lober. He is spot on.

You should be fine as long as there was consent.

You're fine. Don't ever admit to having sex with anyone under 16 under any circumstance. www.colleenglenn.com
