It is not rape or sexual assault so long as she is at least 16 years old or there are no more than

four years between your two birthdates. On the other hand she is a minor and there is an offense known as endangering the morals of a minor. Find out when she will be 18.

It depends on various factors regarding the relationship between the two of you. I need more details from you before I can give you a definite answer. Please contact me to discuss this. I never charge for just talking to a person about their case. Thank you.
