butterfly6585 Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 What age range are you willing to date & how old are you (if you don't mind answering)? Just curious as I'm still trying to decide what age range I feel comfortable dating. Also, just want to specify that I'm not so much wondering what ages of people would you be willing to just hook up with (if you're into that) but what age range of people would you be willing to have an exclusive relationship with?

SVSV Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I'm 48. I'd prefer someone within 10 years of myself. I think they've usually been within five years older than I. It just happens that I've never dated anyone younger. I once dated someone more than 20 years older. Link to comment
Case_1983 Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Im 27. Never dated (or wanted to date) anyone more than + - 1 years until i met my current SO. he is 5 years older. Link to comment
superfox Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I'm 42 Bf is 37, ex bf 36. I had between 35-45 on my old dating profile. Link to comment
teabee Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I'm 22. Was open to dating anyone my age or 10ish years older, although never put much real thought into defining what ages I'd date and which were too old or too young. Ended up with someone 29 years older. Link to comment
InkkedBree Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I'm 21, dating a 34. I never thought of this before, but he also didn't look 34, lol. It did open my mind up so I don't care of that age now. Before, I'd say 27, 28. Research says the society's approval is usually like, add or minus 7 years to your age, and that's it. Weird.

superfox Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I was married to a guy 19 years older, I could never go there again - on either side! Link to comment
Oneironaut Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I'm 43, and my boyfriend is 29. Age is completely irrelevant to us, to the degree that he calls me, "young lady", quite often. Link to comment
longdist Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 29, gf is 34. I think if it works, it doesn't matter what the age gap is. It can sometimes be strange to refer to the past, in reference to what each person was doing (1 in middle school, the other working full time after college) Link to comment
teabee Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 It can sometimes be strange to refer to the past, in reference to what each person was doing (1 in middle school, the other working full time after college) I love doing that. Today I found an old piece of paper that said, "Teabee lost 2 teeth today. March 1995." I was still losing my baby teeth while he was opening up his first business. EEK! Now that one leaves me a little uncomfortable. Link to comment

SayWhen Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I'm 22 (will be 23 in a few weeks) and my husband-to-be is 30 (will be 31 in May). When I was 19 I dated a 37 year-old...my last serious relationship prior to my engagement...he was only one year older than me. I have always liked older men but have had a few brief relationships with younger men. I think for me the limit would be 20 years in either direction but honestly I don't know since I feel every person is an individual of which age is only a small factor. Link to comment
thedude3000 Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I'm 28 years old and I typically wont date anyone under 24 and would go probably up to about 33. Link to comment
diorme89 Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I am 21 and the guy i am dating is 38.The chemistry between us is unbelievable. We get along great and always have something to talk about. Our conversatins range from the superfical world to deep emotional convos and current event happening around the world. I have always been into older guys because i feel like i can connect with them better. My ex ws 32 when i was 18 and we dated for about a year and a half. I just think age is a number and you have to do whats best for you. Link to comment
