For both older than you and younger. 

 

As of today I would not date someone like 5-6 years younger than me and I would not date someone more than 18/20 years older.  

 

What about you?

As long as he’s an adult I don’t care.

So if you would be fine if your son for example was 18 dating a 35 year old?

It depends on how big is his bank account

-1 year -> +20 years

5 years either way

I generally just follow the "half your age, plus seven" rule.

-1 --> +7

This! The power dynamic and life experience is so off. Plus any 35 yo interested in someone that much younger has issues. A recipe for disaster and emotional damage.

I'm 23, I wouldn't date anyone younger than 20/21, I wouldn't have many issues with dating a 30-31 years old but it wouldn't be my first choice and I'd think twice about it, 22-26 is the best range. 

 

16 years old: 16-18

18 years old: 17-21

22-25 years old: 22-28

 

After 30: I think 10-13 is an ok range, but I still wouldn't date anyone over ~7 years older.

I’m 33 and my boyfriend is 23 

 

Thats the largest age gap I’ve ever experienced within a romantic relationship, and while there’s been a few issues, I’m not entirely sure they’re completely rooted in difference of age and maturity.

Well in both of my long term relationships, they were never more than six months apart from me so I guess that long lol.

If one was an adult already when the other was born then ????????????????

5 years younger, 10 years older.

I'm 23 and my boyfriend is 32 and I think that's my limit

i personally wouldn’t date someone who isn’t 21 and i just turned 23. older probably someone in their 30s is the oldest i’d go as i have a career and my own place at this point so we wouldn’t really be in a different life stage. but i understand it’s different for everyone. imo if you’re not a teenager you shouldn’t be dating a teenager they are not typically in the same life arena as someone in their mid 20s or older.

-1 year

+10 years

 

i simply prefer to date someone older or my age

for dating: -3 and +2 years 

seggs: any age

I'm 26 now and generally like guys in their 30s. I've chatted with a couple of guys in their early 40s before and honestly I feel like lately I've been preferring their maturity level a lot more. But I also just don't want to enter a situation where there's a power imbalance

Preferably +/-5

Limit +/-10
