    I'm 23 and 10 above would probably be my max and maybe 3 below.

    I think it's easier for women to date up and men to date down

    Not much interest in dating any younger than me (I'm 24). I once dated a 32 year old....then he found out he was a dad to ex-gf's baby....that leap into a different stage of life was a no go for me. Otherwise even close to 10 years was cool with me.

    I'm dating someone 3.5 years younger than me. I am 26 year old female. He is 22 but will be 23 soon. There has been and are issues with dating a guy younger than me. It DOES help that people say I look significantly younger than what I really am. A lot of people think I am 20 years old tops. Most people think my boyfriend is older than me, but really it's the other way around. Only issues with being with a guy younger are of course maturity level and our stage in life ( although I'm not way ahead of him ). Most of our issues don't have to do with our age differences, but rather our lifestyle, where we want to be in the future, direction, and hobbies/interests. I'm a runner; he is a musician. I want to move; he wants to stay put.

    I think age matters less as we get older.

    For me, I'm not opposed to dating younger than me, but if I am not with my current boyfriend forever, I do not think I will date a man that much younger than me. I would date/marry a man 1-2 years my junior, or a guy my age. As far as older, I am unsure. I want to say up to 4-5 years older.

    I was 39, divorced with 3 kids. He was 26.5. We've been happily married 21 years. We're both self-employed and can easily spend together. We have similar interests. I think he is more mature than me. His mom thinks I'm the best thing ever for him!

    My husband is 12 years younger, but we suprisingly have a lot in common and most importantly the same sense of humor. Helps you get through life's challenges. I'm 46 and he's 34. When I was dating I also had dated older. I probably wouldn't date too much further than 12 years either way. If I'm talking about something I wouldn't want to be with a man who, for example, who never heard of eight track tapes, someone who I'd have to explain things to like I'm ancient history. On the other end of the spectrum, I wouldn't want someone so much older I felt like their daughter. Just my preferences.

    Me too! My husband is 12 years younger. He can hardly remember his own age, much less mine - he says it doesn't matter. Definitely sharing the same sense of humor is important in a relationship. A few older guys I dated I think were, I guess... boring, or scared of me - hahaha!

    Similar to my situation, I was 25, she was 43 and divorced with 3 kids (all teenagers).
    Been married 30 years this Sept.

    I'm 18....would only date a person a year younger than me and older....maybe like 45 is the cut off age? I wouldn't marry someone aged 45 at 18 but I would be interested in having fun...

    I dated a 23 year old last year. Age really is just a number.

    I'm dating someone 5 years older, but he seems more like my age. I don't think numbers matter so much as maturity

    My father was 22 years older than my mum, no longer together but they were for 10 years, for me age shouldnt not matter as long as you have a connection
