Dating is not illegal in any state.
However, inappropriate contact can land your boyfriend in serious trouble.
A nice rule of thumb is that you don't do anything physical that you wouldn't do with you grandmother. Hold hands, hug, kiss on the cheek - fine. Anything else can be questionable.
Please stick around the forums and read though. Generally, 20 year old men don't hang around 16 year old girls unless they're after something.
