In the US it's legal for anybody to DATE anybody. However, if you're using "date" as a euphemism for "have sex with" ... then in some places in the US it would be illegal, but in Texas specifically it's (probably) fine; the age of consent in Texas is 17.

This assumes there isn't something else going on which is itself illegal (for example, if the 17 year old is a high school student and the 20 year old is a teacher at that high school; in that case it's not the ages that make it illegal, it's the educator/student relationship that makes it illegal).
