How far up/down from your age would you date?

fara180

i'm 20. i would date anywhere between 19-32.

For me age is pretty unimportant. Character, maturity, values, personality, humor... those things are not dependent upon age and are far more important to me than how many birthdays someone has celebrated. But then, I'm married to a man 19 years older than I am and we've been together for 16 years, so what do I know?

mikey1976

let see any girl thats older then my niece she 17 now so 18 and up but it all depends if we mesh well. i'm 36 going to be 37

holly273

I'm 19, I'd probably go for 18-25. Current boyfriend is about to turn 22.

Einahhh

Several hours

Yes :laugh:

The real question is how far up and down your weight would you date?

VeganSurfer

I'm 32

If I were single, I'd say anywhere between 21 and 36

Jessicamurray1986

I'm 26, so 22-35...Although I've never been with anyone younger than me... A 22 year old might make me feel like a grandma.

spectralmoon

27-36. I'm 29.

jasmineconley

Depends... Can they talk nerdy to me?

I thought it was asking if you'd date a butterface.

icyeyes317

I am 33...husband is almost 25. B-)

Power_Man77

I'm 36...so 30-50

FitandFab33

I'm 26- so 24-40s (I say 40s because at that point it really depends on the individual and how they wear/act their age etc)

matt2442

42 is my cut off

Daisy_Cutter_

I'm 40.

From experience... 32-50.

My current "crush" is 32 and it seems to work fine. I've also recently dated a really hot 50 year old. So yeah... Whatever... I'm game!

I married the only woman I ever dated, 32 years ago. I don't have a clue what dating is anymore!!!

But it seems to me that if you have shared interest +/- 10 years or so seems natural (provided they're over the age of 17 ).

skinnylynnie74

I generally stay within 10 years either side (28-48), but I've stretched it to 17 years older and 15 years younger. Yowza! I'm an equal opportunity dater.

Jacwhite22

18-24

I'd prefer 5 years up or down, just to keep it in the same generation. I want to have something in common, you know, like familiar pop culture references. My in-laws are 15 years apart and they just don't get each other's jokes or cultural references or anything. I love being able to say, "Remember that?" and have my husband totally get me. But to each her own.

MrsPhan11

im 29 and my range would be 27-37

Penny_Lane_

26-38

seanezekiel

I am 37

21-45 and have dated both ends of that range.

mercedesbenz5979

30-38

sullykat

apparently 13 years older… I married him!

Laura8603

I'm 46. I get hit on by a lot of 20-somethings. They are fun to play with : )

+/- 10 is my usual limit.

simplydelish2

I've dated 7 years older and 11 years younger. Both long term - 7 and 8 years respectively.

piggydog

I don't like to date anyone the same age or younger then me... I prefer older...less then 8 years preferably..... Sad thing is my current boyfriend is 6 months younger

I have never dated anyone besides him younger then myself but the oldest I went was 14 years older then myself

The real question is how far up and down your weight would you date?

I don't go by weight. I go by similar fitness goals. I mean my husband is a lot taller and more muscular than me, and I'm pretty slim, so of course he's gonna weigh a lot more than me. But I know what you're getting at. Someone like me needs a partner who is a bit more active, outdoorsy, and into healthy habits. I wouldn't be happy with a total couch potato or someone who spent a lot of time in a buffet line. It's all about shared values for me. My man doesn't need to be perfect - he can even carry a few extra pounds, but he needs to show a certain level of respect for his health and be willing to go out and do the kinds of active things I like to enjoy.
