Ok, I'm 15 at the moment. And I am with a guy who I've been with since I was 13 and I want to marry him. But my father will not allow that. So how can I do that without getting his premission. Or could i get emancipated then marry him? If so, how would i get emancipated?

Hey, I was married when I was 16 (last year) to who was at the time a 21 year old man and I have been considered emancipated. We are still together, but if we were to divorce then I would still be considered emancipated.
