Age Gap
 

Whats the limit? Friend of mine seems to really hit it off w this girl he met. She seems pretty cool. He's my age 38 but looks younger like 25 or something cuz thats what people guess all the time. I have the same prob i look younger. Not really a prob. Shes 22. Looks bout that age, mid 20's. I tell him so what. As long as you guys are happy so what. Our other friend disagrees and says thats too much of a gap. But we think hes being biased cuz he was the first to jump in and was talking to her and her friends. So what is too much?

It's the age of the person's maturity that matters, not really the physical so much. One of my racing buddies is 68 and his girlfriend is 33, more power to him I say.

I agree. Depends on maturity.

A friend of mine was dating a 25 year old when she was in her 30s. They broke up because he wasn't mature enough.

Now she's in her 40s, they started dating again by chance, and are now engaged...

younger age = older age / 2 + 7

What is that suppose to mean? Both of the above dont even fall into that formula and they seem happy. 38/2 : 19+7 = 26 shes 22 4 yr diff. Now would her parents age figured in mean something they r about 10yrs older than him...

Personally, my window is usually 2 years over, 10 years younger. It depends on the person, but people usually want different things at say 21 vs. 31. Don't get me wrong, younger chicks are fun, but those relationships tend to fizzle out rather quickly. Then again you only live once (that I know of). If you think about it, it's kind of stupid to set limits on who you end up with based on the arbitrary rotation of the Earth. Anyway, Life's too short for rules.... unless of course she's under 17, that'll get you 3-7.

I dated a 12 years old when I was 17.

And it seemed like I was the 12 year old and she the 17.

You guys are right, it all depends on the maturity.

:tup:

lol

As long as both 'mature/legal age' parties know what they are getting into, more power to them.

:icon17:


I'm done.

You guys dont think her parents might flip out? She has already dropped a hint that her dad may not be to happy bout it. Dont wanna see my boy on the 6 0'. We were talkin and dont understand the rush for her to intro her parents. Dont know if they plan a family outting or something.

Not enough of an age gap. He should go for an 18 year old.

Age is only a number anyway. I don't see an issue with it.

Depends on her body ;)

Depends on her family I guess. Maybe certain cultures wouldn't be OK with it, maybe others would.

Well, there's evidence from real psych studies that on average it's better for a relationship if the woman is younger than the man, and practical experience seems to bear that out in the real world. Most of my girlfriends over time have been ~2-5 years younger than me (talking mostly when I was in my 20's). My most recent girlfriend was roughly a 10 year gap (23 vs 33 at the start). That one was really borderline in the after-analysis.

We had enough in common that it worked very well for the first 6 months or so, but then we moved in together and things went slowly downhill, and looking back on the reasons why, it was mostly about the age difference. It wasn't necessarily raw maturity, just things like differences in where you're at in life: what goals you're after, what kind of news about the world interests you, what level of cynicism you have about certain things, what your priorities are, level of experience with relationship issues, etc.

All in all it lasted about 2 years although I'd say after the first 1.5 years the last bit was wasted time, just sticking together out of habit for a bit. Based on coming out of that experience, at 35 now, I think my new bar would be an absolute minimum of 28, but hopefully someone 30+.

I'm telling you, she was like the young kim kardashian's sister. :excited:

I've been with my fiancee now for 7 years and we started dating when she was 19, I was 30 at the time. It really depends on the individuals and the type of relationship that you have.

I say so long as it's legal.....all of your boys will be giving you high fives!

Dude, Khloe is fugly.

^This

For what it's worth I seem to date women 3-5 years older than me. One because everyone I hang out with are about 3-5 years older than myself and two I really don't feel like dealing with some drunk 22 year old girl throwing up all over the place. I like girls who have figured out their limits and know what they want out of life

dude, she was 12, and you were 17. I know there's a some girls out there that mature early, look older etc, but come on, 12 is still a kid, and 17 is almost an adult.

there's plenty of fish in the sea, you can't possibly tell me that out of all the poon in the 15-19 yo range running around at the time, this 12 yo was the one who captured your heart/c0ck more than any other? :icon14:

For what it's worth I'm pretty sure he may of captured her.

You can't bring pedobear pics if both of us were minors :shakes head: And come on guys it was just a saying.. she was really mature, at 16 I was still a kid..

And it was like 6 years ago.. I date legal girls now.

wrong one ;)

Im 31 & my girl is 23. Minus the fact that she always wants to go to the bar everything works pretty good. I always date chicks younger than me, it keeps your pimp hand strong.

We're just busting your chops, can't let a comment that good go by

:bowrofl:

I always say go for it and keep your options open. I'm 24 and I've got a 19, 21 and 26 year old right now and its ******* great.

gap is a little big, I tried dating a 19 year old when I was 33, Weird man. Sex WAS great but weird. Wife is 8 years younger than me now.. 37 Wife is 29..

:bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl:

I am 51 and I am dating a 24 year old, she is mature beyond her years and she says I am immature for my age so I guess it works. Know I am having a blast

Age/2 + 7

when I was 19, I dated a 38 year old.. it was bad ***, I learned alot.. lol
