Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida

Floridas Age Of consent

i was wondering if its legal for a 19 year old to date a 15 year old? I know its illegal if they do anything sexual i was wondering if its illegal for a 19 year old to just date a 15 year old and just kiss?

and is it legal for a 20 year old to have sex with a 16 year old in florida? because the age of consent in florida is 16
