As long as you do not have sexual relations. Until your 18, the woman, if convicted by someone close to the 16 year old man (parents, siblings, etc)of rape of a minor, she could be in serious trouble. 18 is the legal age, wait till then.

In most states it is illegal, however some states do allow it. It really boils down to what state your in, if it is consentual, and partly if it is a condoned relationship by the girls parents. Some states also have statutory laws where the the relationship is legal if the younger party member is 17 (instead of 18) and the older party is no more than 23.

There are no laws about dating. There are laws about sexual contact. In most places the age of consent for sexual activity is 16, but with a four year age difference, better consult the laws in your state or country to make sure it is 16 and not 17 or even 19.

Age of consent is 18. Its not uncommon for this to go on, but if the girl gets pregnant a can of worms opens up.

What is a legal age to date?

There is no legal age to date. You can do it whenever you want. But it can also depend on your parents, I'm 13 and my parents approve of me dating. Talk to them about an age they feel is appropriate for you to date. If you were using "date" as a euphemism for "have sex", then the answer depends on where you are.
