Answer i agree that can be know as rape and tehy so like so take things slowlyI think you should slow down. This person is of legal age and depending on what State you live in you aren't. However, there is nothing wrong with this age gap, and as long as your parents approve, he/she is a good person, then see each other, take it slow and wait until you are of age.

Good luck Marcy

AnswerYes, a 17-year-old can date a 21-year-old, but if they are having sex, the 21-year-old can be charged with statutory rape, which is treated very seriously in most states. The tricky thing is that the age of consent is 16 (in some states), but you're a minor until you're 18. So, a 16- and 17-year-old can have sex, but if a 17-year-old has sex with someone over 18, he/she (the person over 18) can be charged with statutory rape.
