Im 18 and currently live in texas. I got a great job offer in oklahoma after i graduate in june and plan on moving to oklahoma. The only thing is, is that my girlfriend is 16 and wont bee 17 till novemeber. And i was wanting to kno if she could go ahead and move up here with me. We have been together for 3 years even tho her mother hates my guts. But if we have to get engaged so we can be together we will. Id just like to kno what i have to do so she can be with me. Thanks everyone.

You must wait until she is 18 or legally married to you. Anything else will likely land you in prison.

Your girlfriend will have to wait until she is eighteen to move with you without interference from her mother. You can enter into an engagement, but her mother can still force her to live at home. You won't be able to get married without her mothers consent, so the only option you have is to wait until she is eighteen.
Dang... well i found out that her grandparents have more cousity over her than her mother does. Her grandmother loves me to death. If she said it was ok, and signed whatever papers (if their is any) is their a possibility she would be able to go with me? Im not tryin to bug you, i just really dont wanna go alone. 2 years is a pretty long time to be by myself for me. Cause the main reason i wanna go is cause of the job. Its supposed to pay really good money. And where i live in texas i couldnt make that kind of money. Let alone starrt out my life in the crappy town i currently live in. Ill do anything whatsoever for her to be able to go with me. If their is anything i can do. Thats how much i care about her.
Whoever has legal custody of her must grant permission.
