Dating is not legislated, in other words, there are no laws regarding dating. However, any sexual contact is based on the laws of the state or country you are in. In many states the age of consent is 16, in some it is 17 or 18. Date older, not younger!

∙ 12y agoI know its dumb but it is illegal because my ex got into trouble for that.
Depends on where you live.
The dating is not a problem in the eyes of the law, it is sexual contact. That can be anything from kissing, touching to sexual intercourse. Check the Age of Consent laws in your state.

∙ 11y agoIt depends on the laws of your country or state.
Generally, if you are considered a "minor" (aka child) then yes, it is illegal to be dated by an 18 year old, as an 18 year old is generally classed as an adult.
An 18 year old dating a 12 year old for example, would make the 18 year old a paedophile - therefore s/he will be jailed.
This is assuming it is a sexual relationship though. Dating does not automatically means it's a sexual relationship. In the US and most countries it is only illegal if the minor is below age of consent when having sex or if the parents of the minor have forbidden them to see a each other. There are also certain acts that is considered sexual in some states. Like kissing for instance.
