    I've recently put an age limit on my dates.. and it's a minimum.

    And.. I'm okay with a little gray. haha

    Oh- if 20 is old I'm a d*** cougar.

    So, it's okay for you to date a 20 year old.

    i am 18 years old. i am in a relationship with a 20 year old who is single. i feel like that is an appropriate age. do u?

    I'm concerned that he's single AND in a relationship.

    Yeah...definitely wondering the same.

    Boys usually are a little later hitting puberty than girls so I think with young people it is very common for the boy in a couple to be a year or two older than the girl. I am 68 and when I was growing up, back in the 50's and early 60's, most couples married by the time they were in their early twenties. (probably because no one that I knew lived together before marriage.) Among my age mates now, if I know the age of one of the parties in a couple I usually assume that if it is the man, his wife is two years younger. If it is the woman, her husband is two years older. I will be right about 90 per cent of the time.

    Now with people waiting till they are older to marry, I don't know if there is still the same pattern but I would say that in general, a two year age gap is no gap at all.

    I get the feeling it was a troll question... but just incase it's not.

    If you feel you have you ask, then it's a problem. Though the problem may be with your outlook, not necessarily the age "gap".

    My sweetie is 14 yrs younger than me...but when we're together most people guess him to be older. LOL! As long as we're on an equal playing field (education, career, goals, conversation) that least of my concerns is age.

    But you my dear and the whole 2 yrs "older"...shouldn't even be an issue!

    Good job on insulting 99% of MFP users?

    20 is not "older people."

    For your reference:
    6a010534b1db25970b013482032a60970c-800wi

    Phew! I was worried. I had to the math a couple of times (joke!) but my "friend" squeaks in to the acceptable range by a year. Boy was that going to be an awkward breakup. "So, ummm...I really like you. But I was on MFP today and they said...so, yeah. Gotta go, babe. Sorry."

    Lol I just told you that I'm not 18, I'm 22 (and by this thread, that's classified as old). Who's fighting and how is the age of your children relevant?
