Is it OK to date someone 2 years older than u?

The “close in age” rule means that: 12- and 13-year-olds can be sexual with people who are no more than two years older than them. 14- and 15-year-olds can be sexual with people who are no more than five years older than them.

What age gap is illegal in a relationship?

Federal law makes it criminal to engage in a sexual act with another person who is between the age of 12 and 16 if they are at least four years younger than you. Each state takes a different approach as the age of consent has ranged from 10 to 18.
