Is 16 and 19 really that bad? (lemmings.world)

So, my good friend (18m) had a falling out with his ex (19m) because the ex bullied him and also because he is apparently dating a 16f, so my friend thinks he is a pedophile for obvious reasons (adult + minor).

I can see why this would be considered bad but also, when I turn 16, my girlfriend will be 19 too, as I am currently a young sophomore who is about 3 years younger than her girlfriend, a senior.

iffy to some, big maturity difference but romeo and juliet laws, i believe, say it's fine.

    In my experience, a 19yo male is as mature as a 16yo female.... (Well, maybe, not always...)

    A 16yo male would be significantly less mature than a 16yo female...

    What I mean is that male and female mature differently and boys grow up later than girls. I would see as puzzling a 19yo female dating a 16yo male.
