No, I do not want to date a 6 year old

That +7 at the end of the equation puts the lower limit at 7, and that’s if you’re zero years old.

If we're going with the half your age plus 7 idea I'd feel weird dating a girl in her mid 20s. But I'd also probably feel awesome.

I’m 64 and would def date a 30 year old. Not younger though. I’d date someone up to like 68 for the companionship… a 30 year old is for my future heart attack….


This is what my brother is doing right now. God bless him.

The gap can grow as people are fully "adult" in their 30s.

18 to 22 is a huge age gap.

20 to 30 is a huge age gap

30 to 50 isn't nearly as big as those two.

This really. I think the half your age plus 7 rule works well for this reason. I couldn't see myself going more than 15 years younger though really. I'm 49 with a fiancee who is 12 years younger, and that's working well. It might not have worked as well when I was 37 and she was 25. Timing is everything.

Your example is basically older rich celebrities dating girls that want to be in the spotlight so they can start an only fans site or a reality show. Worst case scenario they just get some $$

When I was 30 I dated a 19-year-old
When I was 40 I dated a 19-year-old
When I was about to turn 50 I was dating a 19-year-old. I soon traded her in for a 30-year-old so I guess the answer to your question is no.

This thread again?

quote:

Could you date someone 30 years younger or older than you?

Younger - yes
Older - no

quote:

What's your age limit

Hypothetically, would have depended on a number of factors, including my age at the time vs. her age at the time. Throughout my life after college I almost always dated and married younger or much younger women, the oldest being 32.

I've reached the age and comfort level at which I will no longer put much effort into finding someone who isn't just looking for a meal ticket / rich sugar daddy. I just feel fortunate and grateful to those beautiful women who have given me a portion of their life and self. I have plentiful good memories and no regrets.

That said, I presently know one of the hottest young women on the planet, and if I could somehow wake up and be 20ish again, or just have the opportunity to find out whether I could survive a date with her, I wouldn't hesitate.

Could I date someone 20? Would have to be someone really smart and could carry an intelligent convo.

and at that age, those are far and few in between.
