There are no laws against dating so yes as long as the parents are fine with it. Sex is only allowed if the 17 year old has reached the age of consent.

AnswerThere aren't laws that apply to persons dating.

US states and the federal government do have age of consent laws which apply to underaged persons having consensual sex, and in some states there may also be statutory laws that apply to other issues of in adult and minor relationship.

It is important to realize that regardless of the Age of Consent in any state, it is possible and highly probable that any adult who engages in sexual contact with any minor (anyone below the age of 18) can and will be prosecuted.

In many places, the age difference between a 17-year-old and a 23-year-old may raise legal issues related to the age of consent. Additionally, such a significant age gap may pose challenges in terms of maturity and life experience. It's important to consider not only legal implications but also the potential power dynamics and emotional readiness of individuals involved.
