Whatever you decide to do, you need to know that since your BF is 18, he can get into ALOT of trouble if you move in with him/his family.

In the last few years Florida has taken a zero tolerance policy on any sexual contact between adults and minors. (sexual contact does include kissing, etc). The state declared 2 years ago that the intent is to 1- be known as the toughest state in the country on sexual offenders, and 2- to put every single offender in jail forever. So far, they are succeeding and have gone way overboard on prosecuting situations like your's.

For your BF's sake, you are probably better off waiting until you turn 18.
