No. In California, legally, NO. If either of your parents are protective or dissaprove of your relationship, the 21 yr old can go to jail for statutory rape. Technically, if the two of you stay out of trouble, and your parents are okay with you dating, I doubt anything would happen. As long as sex is not involved, there is not a legal age to be with someone. If sex is involved and proved, it is considered statutory rape and therefore illegal. * Application of sexual criminal charges pertaining to relationships between minors and adults are pursuant to the AOC of the state in which the act(s) takes place. Statutory rape is very rarely used unless there is a large discrepancy in ages or the adult is a person of authority (teacher, police officer, counselor, minister, etc.). Any charges brought against an adult for engaging in a sexual relationship with a minor who is under the AOC is generally treated as a sexual misconduct charge and constitutes a 2nd or 3rd class felony offense.
