18. Other than that it's jail bait and you do so at your own risk.
If you still do... don't have sex even if the other person asks, especially if that other person is a girl. You could get in so much hot water since in some jurisdictions, the person would not be legally able to consent and that person saying "yes" will meed diddly squat to the law.
Go as young as you want - but keep it in mind. Check the laws in your area. By all means, PROTECT YOURSELF! You don't need trouble with the law, especially when you didn't even do anything!

12, that's the minimum a girl should be before she starts dating, but anywhere below 16-17 would be very very creepy, and anywhere below 17-18 could be illegal depending on your state. I'd stick with girls 17 to 25 or 26, that's probably the best age range for someone your age to be dating.
I know you said you're not talking about sex but I would say 18 although in some states 16 or 17 is the legal age of sexual consent. Because lets face it: You are going to want to have sex lol. So I think you should definitely stick with 18. Yes lots of women like older men but that doesn't mean under 18 is right. 18+ year olds like older men too!
The rule says 17 (half your age plus seven) but that does put you as a college age student dating a high schooler (under most circumstances) which is kind of creepy. And in some states the age of consent is 18 (for others its 16 or 17) so in that case it would also be illegal.
It's 16. 16 She's able to give legal concent, if its not sexual it shouldn't matter but I wouldn't go lower then that. Your supposed to divide your age by 2 then add 7 so 17 but , 16 is just a bit younger so I wouldn't worry :)

legally 18. emotionally, stick with someone your age or older.
Lol man that's a mad creepy question if I've ever heard one lol
In my state a girl can be sixteen. But thats...lets just stick with 18 and up.
In some states its 16, in others its 18. Once you hit 21, I'd stick to 18 and up though.
My grandma is 10 years older than my grandpa and they've been married for over 50 years. I think 10 years is too much. So for me I'm almost 20 myself. I wouldn't date anyone under 16.
17 years. If the relationship is legal then why not
I think it may be 16. I'm 19 and I wouldn't feel right dating a girl younger than 17.
18, lets play it safe, my momma always said "its better to be safe than sorry"!
I don't like older guys. This question id disturbing. You're a pedophile?
Age of consent varies a lot depending on what country you live in. In some American states it's totally legal to have sex with 16 year old girl. I think in Europe there is no problem except Italy. In Japan you're fine too
18 to be safe but I'm 17 and would date a 20 year old but id like to think my limit is 4 years older than me
18 is the youngest that way they won;t get in trouble
depends on country.
in some countries, 17 is the youngest.
in australia, I think it is 16.18. Because you are an adult.
18. let's keep it legal :)
half your age plus seven
16 if no sex, 18 if you will be having sex
18, because that way he won't seem like a pedo.
17, 16 seems a bit young.
17 or 18 I'd say. Preferably 18, 17 is a bit iffy.
