Yes

the only time you cant date him is if your over 18

Another answer:

You may date anyone you want. If you're the 16-year-old, though, your maturity and sanity would suspect.

You may not, however, have sex -- unless you want to go to jail.

It depends on the state(or where you reside).Where I reside for example, it wouldn't be illegal to DATE. But, it would be illegal to be having sexual relations with the girl. The legal age of consent for sex is 16 where I am. But it IS different in every place. so if you can, look up the laws where you live.

Dating is never illegal (well, at least not in any part of the Western world). However, any form of sexual contact at all is almost certainly illegal between a 17 and 12 year old.

There are no laws about dating at any age. However, any sexual contact would be against the law. And why would a 17 year old want to date a 12 year old? There could only be one reason, and it is against the law!

Dating is not an issue, but any contact could be very bad for the 17-year old and land him in jail. Why would he want to risk it? I highly recommend against it.

There is no law that would prevent them dating. However, any sexual contact will result in the 17 year old getting a criminal record.

There are no laws about dating. However, there is only one reason someone in high school would be dating someone that young and it is very illegal.

Is it illegal for a 12 year old to date a 21 year old?

It depends on where you are. Few places have legislation prohibiting dating. It may not be illegal to date but a 12 year old is a minor and below the age of consent for sexual contact. The 19 year old would be very stupid to date someone that young, it could land them in jail if the younger one accuses them of doing something, whether they actually did or not.
