Yes. If you have to ask this question you are not ready to have sex. Wait two or three years.

The 18-year-old faces up to 5 years in prison and a fine up to $5000 if convicted of statutory rape so, if you value this person and yourself, please do not even consider a sexual relationship until you are older.
