My boyfriend is 21, and I am 16. Recently, we were forced to break up because someone in our town threatened to turn is in, purely based on our age difference of five years. However, we have never engaged in any sexual activities what so ever because we were unsure of what the law actually states. I want to know- is still ok for us to be dating, as long as we do not engage in any sexual activities? Also, does a parent consent make it legal? Is it ok to kiss? And if this person who threatened us turns him in anyway, will he have to go to jail even though we've done nothing sexual?

Wyoming Statute 6-2-304. Sexual assault in the third degree is committed when:
(i) The actor is at least four (4) years older than the victim and inflicts sexual intrusion on a victim under the age of sixteen (16) years;

At sixteen, you are excluded from this statute; however, you are still considered a minor under the law. The 21 year old must have your parents consent to date you. With their consent to date, kissing would be OK.

It is important to remember, if you are together and engage in activities that may be legal for a 21 year old, but not legal for a 16 year old, such as drinking, smoking etc..., he can be held legally accontable and could go to jail for contributing to the delinquency of a minor among other things. If he does not have your parents consent to be with you, this could be a very big problem for him legally. The key keeping this legal is "With your parents consent."
