AnswerYou can, but you may want to consider carefully. Do you honestly like this person or do you just like thinking that dating someone older will make you more mature? Do your parents know and approve of this person? How well do you know this person? If you don't know then very well or you'd be very uncomfortable being by yourself with them, try to date in a public place such as a restaurant or mall. AnswerFrom what I've learned, dating a 19-year-old at 16 is legal. You should have your parents permission if you are the 16-year-old and should not have sex with him(or her?). That would be dangerous because it is considered rape. However, there aren't laws regulating dating.

The legal age of consent varies by location, but in many places, a 16-year-old and a 19-year-old could legally date. However, it's important for both individuals to consider the maturity levels and power dynamics in the relationship to ensure it is healthy and consensual.
