G'day,
I've known my friend for a while, met randomly and can't remember how,
I am 23 years old and she is only 16, I know in my family there have been age gaps as far as 9/10 years .
So I was just curious as to whether it is legal or allowed for myself and my friend to date and see what happens? I would like to get an informed answer first before we act on anything.
From what I've read, it isn't illegal, as she is over 16 and consents to it, please advise of what our rights are.
