What are Georgia laws for an adult dating a minor?

I've been reading into this and some people say it's completely illegal. Others say it's okay if a minor has adult consent. I know for sure if a minor and adult have sex then it's illegal. What I'm trying to figure out though is if it's illegal for them to date, kiss, hold hands, that kind of puppy love thing. Any websites, info about this would be so helpful. Thanks!

There are no laws against dating. There are obviously laws against sex or any inappropriate touching
Georgia recently changed its laws, where prior the age of consent was 16 it had even been 14 at one point now it has been moved up to 18. As a general rule while "Dating" might not seem to be a problem, Georgia also has the "no consent" law that basically states Minors under the age of 18 can not give consent. This means that even if no sexual activity takes place, at any time the parents of said minor can claim it did, and it's up to the "adult" dating the child to prove that it didn't. I live near GSP Georgia State Prison and can honestly say that's where an adult would chance ending up. On the inside, they'd be considered pedophiles, and fair targets by the inmates. In short, if they're not 18, then do not chance it
First, how old is the adult and how old is the minor? Statutory rape laws are designed to protect 14 year olds from 45 year olds, not to protect 17 year olds from 19 year olds. Most states have exceptions for situations between someone who's an "older child" and someone who's "barely an adult. " Here's a pretty good index to state statutes; you can look up Georgia law there: topics. law. cornell. edu / wex / state_statutes I have never heard of any law against hand - holding, however. ;
