On the legal side I don't know what the law is in your region but in the UK you would not be committing an offence: The age of consent in England and Wales is 16 regardless of sexual orientation or gender, as specified by the Sexual Offences Act 2003. However, if person A is over the age of 18 and is in a position of trust to person B who is under the age of 18, it is illegal for A to engage in sexual activity with B.

Age of consent in us is between 16 to 18. It is 18 in the state OP lives. 17 is pretty close. I'd be more concerned about 18 year old with 15 year girlfriend. Ouch.
