    Age is just a number, if your happy with him then that's all that really matters. My ex was 13 years older than me and yeah, people may judge but who cares! Be happy :)

    If he's old enough to be my father he's too old, if he's young enough to be my son, then he's too young. Everything else is fair game. And I may have posted this before...it feels like déjà vu

    Age is only a number. Its all about the connection between ye. If you like him and he says and does the right things , its all good. Follow your heart , not what other people think you should do.

    If you are questioning him being too old for you, you are too young for him!

    For hanging out, having fun and such, I wouldn't question age. Anything long term though, that will become an issue. Be awkward to have a girl looking to start her career while I am about to retire.

    You're only as old as you feel! There should be no issues if you treat each other with respect and no one is taking advantage!

    See I ask myself that same question. I'm 34 and was recently introduced to a guy at Church, found out he's 27. To me it was strange, but I've gotten to know him and he's a good guy. The age thing shouldn't matter, but if it is an issue for you maybe you should step back for a moment. Never know if the relationship would be a good one.

    Too old is when his wants are not your wants, when what he's experienced and you've not yet experienced start clashing.

    So you're saying you want me to have your babies right?

    When I was your age I was totally into a 36 year old. That seemed about right to me.

    if you're a dude, the limit is supposed to be half your age plus 7. anything smaller than that and its creepy.

    Glad MY female MFP friends don't feel that way.

    when i was in my early 20s I dated a lady in her early 30s...it was pretty much a mutual feck fest and nothing more. outside of pretty much getting it on all of the time, we didn't really have much in common...oh, we thought we did at first...but yeah...couple months went by and we realized that really we didn't have a whole lot in common...but we continued to feck for a bit longer because the fecking was good.

    I think girls in their early 20s think they're really mature, too mature for guys that age, but later you realize that's BS. A 10 or 12 year age gap when you're older isn't so bad, but a 21 year old chick and a 33 year old guy is a substantial difference in life. Now that I'm 32, picturing one of my guy friends dating a 21 year old is creepy.
