It seems more fucked up because the 13 year old seems even younger than 13 because of the ...

I’m just scrolling through the comments right now so haven’t read this yet (tbh don’t think I will) but I think it reaches pedo levels when they start being really sexual, rather than just the simple ‘I want to be with this person’ it once your actually doing things and thinking really graphic things that someone of that age won’t even understand yet. Hope this helps you decide if it’s worth the pedophile tag or not

In most states in the US there is a law called the "Romeo and Juliet" law. If one is younger than the other but both are below the age of 18 it is not considered pedophilia. Not saying the situation isn't fucky but in the eyes of the law it isn't considered pedophilia.

The Romeo and Juliet law only extend to 3 years and they had to be together before one of them turns 18 so for example if a 15 year was dating a 18 year old they had to be together for a certain amount of time. But I get where you are getting at.

It also depends on the court ((if this were a court scenario)). I had a relative who's child had to go through this cause they were 13 and were coerced into doing things with a 17 year old. Sometimes they'll rule it even if they weren't technically together if the younger one confessed to consenting. Which in this scenario the younger guy seems to have done just that gradually. Still fucky tho. Like, this took a turn I didn't think it would and idek how I feel about it.

Yea, I get it. We had the same problem kind of. The girl said this guy raped her and with his age it was a whole mess and I think the case was dropped, because it was mess on top of mess.
