Good morning everyone! So, there are some details that need de-obscuring and some timelines that need altering. Let me try to help with that.
He was pestering Leanna for quite a while before she finally started talking to him online. Considering they announced they were dating when she was 18 and 6 months old it's a pretty reasonable inference that the pestering phase was while she was a minor. Pestering a woman who isn't interested you with intent to smash that is probably considered molestation.
What i head she was 18 +1 day when they announced they had become a couple!
- Aug-29-2011: Leanna turns 18
- Feb-12-2012: Valentine's Day reveal video
There's a fair gap of time in between these two events, but not a huge one.
The gap starts to shrink for Philliam when the question of their anniversary is raised:

Leanna has gone as far as to say, somewhere in that haunted forest of vlogs, that the week between Christmas and New Year's is right about their anniversary. Being generous here...
- Aug-29-2011: Leanna turns 18
- Jan-13-2012: Phil and Leanna become "official"
Getting tight, right? It gets tighter!
@SoapQueen1 cites the "months" of pestering -- Leanna's characterization. Well, that's ALMOST how Phil remembers it too:

Except the pestering was in the other direction. Let's be generous again, and say "a couple months" back from mid-January is exactly 60 days -- mid-November of the previous year.
- Aug-29-2011: Leanna turns 18
- Nov-14-2011: The first YT message is sent (either way)
The gap is almost as tight as jailbait pussy. But I have more!

Now, this is the testimony of some random. I'm certainly not :autism: enough to go back and watch the original camcorder Dark Souls I playthrough in search of it, and possibly dozens of other contemporary vlogs failing that. But that's a very specific fucking timeframe if Phil actually admitted to this. For one, Dark Souls I released in America on
October 4th, 2011. And
within 2 weeks, he had ragequit and already uploaded his review!
Upload date:
October 14, 2011
But they talked for a couple of months, right? As Phil might say -- UMMMM?
So, the most uncomfortable timeline.
- Aug-29-2011: Leanna turns 18
- Oct-04-2011: DaS1 drops in America
- Oct-14-2011: Phil films his review whining about the difficulty
TL;DR:
Phil basically kidnapped Leanna on her walk home from high school one day.
