He is not too old, but you may be too young.
You are not yet what you will be. You are not too young to be in love and I don't doubt your feelings.
If a two year old saw a beautiful flame and was obsessed with touching it. You stop them and they will be angry at you, but you know you've done the right thing.
This is of that sort. At 16 you need to plan your future, scholastically and career. When I was 27 I had a 17 year old girl friend. She was an exceptional beauty. I lost my mind over her. She thought I was her prince.
Her Mom eventually welcomed me, as well as her sisters and entire family. To make a long story short , we married. It was not me that changed , but she. In her 20s, she broke my heart.
I wish that I had waited and given her the chance to become an adult in her own rite.
If she felt the same at that time. Then we should marry.
If it is real, it won't go away. Don't rush it.
I really understand your love and I know you feel you can't wait. In truth , it's easier to wait and have it forever than to have it now and lose it forever.

That's a pretty big spread -- he's almost half again as old as you are. While 7 years won't seem like much when you're 35, it's a lot when you're 16.
There's a lot of maturing that happens from 16 to 23. A lot of changes in how you view things. He's probably going to be ready to settle down while you're still in college, and that can cause stress.
I wouldn't worry about being 5th cousins.
But if you pursue this, you can expect a lot of your relatives to think it's really weird.

If you were my daughter, YES! Thats too old for a 16 year old. 5Th cousins, how did you even figure that out? No to blood relatives also. Just my opinions.

He's old only because you're not even 18 yet. Wait until you're older. He has lived more than you have, and that's not fair. Give yourself time to grow, mature and learn about yourself. Dont rush things... You have a whole life ahead of you.....
You dont wanna end up married (with kids) soon wishing you could go back in time and live your different life stages to the fullest. He's older and probably has reached all his goals and checked off everything off his "to do" list and ready to settle down... BUt you.... you have a lot to learn and its not fair for him to come into your life and limit your life...'Cause that's what he will do. Basically what im saying is, he will be ready to settle down way before you....WHy? Cause he will have done it all.....and you will not even be given a chance to start.... I hope you understand.

Sounds like he is a cradle robber if you ask me, In Michigan his *** would be in jail if there has been any sexual contact. He's sick for even thinking of messing with a child, Sounds like he has some mental issues himself. And your parents need to get a grip also if they think it's OK for you to date someone that age because you could be taken away if the law was aware they knew of this. You Must be from the SOUTH

Dear jesus 23...dont do it. Hes way too old and may just be looking to have fun with a young girl and then a 5th cousin... its the Taboo that might be appealing to him and after he finds someone that is closer to his age he may leave you with a broken heart. Be careful sweetie this is your heart and your life.

A 23 year old who is in love with a 16 year old has problems. Keep going with him and you'll find out what these problems are. Listen to your parents.

Any 23 year old man that wants to date a 16 year old girl has something wrong with him. He is emotionally immature and obviously unable to cope with a woman his own age.
When you are 23 you will look back at this and think how disgusting and gross it would be for someone that age to date someone so young.

Well by law you two could get into serious trouble. For him being that age you should at least be 18. Also the cousin thing will make it harder for your families to accept.

You are but a child and shame on your "boyfriend" , he should be with someone his age. That is too big an age difference at your ages. You need to focus on school and having fun with friends your own age. This 23 year old needs to get a life and quit trying to influence young girls. He's probably dating you because women his own age see through his game whereas you a child is totally believing all of his lines. Drop him and enjoy your childhood/teen years doing things with your own age group.
