Is this illegal or is it not?

Basically, I m 19 and where I live, you re legally allowed to be with someone who s 13-17 unless you re 21 and older. If my girlfriend is 16 and the age is 18 where she lives (in a different country), is this illegal? I m not breaking the law? But is she?

    The only thing illegal is sexual contact. If she is in another country, obviously there is none.

    I'd re-read the laws around you, there is nowhere in the US that a 20 year old having sex with a 13 year old is not at least a misdemeanor.

    Is what, exactly, illegal? This person is in another country. What actions are you doing, and where are they occurring?

    She's not breaking the law in her country but you are. Think long and hard about that before proceeding.

    I agree with laughter every day.

    It's shouldn't be illegal at all as long as you don't have sex without consent

    Yes, you both are, she is underage and cannot consent to anything,and if you have sex with her you are guilty of rape.
