If a 15 year old male likes and wants to date an 18 year old female, is that illegal?

Not unless that lady wants to be branded a sexual predator if something goes on.

Do you want to become a Marine? (Off topic)

I believe it would depend upon the state you live in, as far as the legal age of consent.

Hi, semper fidelis!

In most places that I know of in the U.S. if this is concerning the U.S. it's okay to date, just not to get involved in any sort of sexual way that might break the law where the couple are located, so it would help to know the location about which you're inquiring.

What do the parents say about this, please?

Thanks!

"Liking" is never illegal. Acting upon it is.

Don't hon. She could get in trouble, you would get hurt, its just not worth it. Focus on girls your own age - as should she.

What state? The laws vary from state to state

The state is New Jersey.

The age of consent in New Jersey is 16. So dating would be okay but something as simple as kissing or touching can get her trouble.

Now you said you like this girl and ask if it's okay to date so I would like to know are your dating or you just have a crush on her?

If that's the case we can't control who we like and with your age difference your might be in different places in your life. She might be going to college and your in high school. If your thinking of asking her out don't be mad if the outcome isn't what you wanted.
